Horvat on 3rd line??🤢

The idea would be the top 9 are all potential scoring lines as opposed to an actual set third line.

Toronto instantly matches that offer. It will take over $3 million, or possibly over $4 million for Toronto to consider not matching.

Its more around 3 very strong lines as opposed to just an "actual" third line

That's probably fair. I may go change that

Edit: Turns out I can't. Just assume it 4x1

The issue for Toronto is they are already 1.5 mil over cap that would put them 4.5mil over who are they dumping to make up the difference? Really though LHD is not what Van needs, I'm also not sure on giving up a 2nd to ditch poolman just yet, Due to him missing half a season with ailments its hard to say that he just needed to adjust to a new team. He also didnt get much time under Bruce and changes he had implemented. If he is healthy this year and can be a solid stay at home D it might be a good match up for Rathbone on the 3rd line pairing. IMO Van needs to sell Myers while he has some perceived value keep the right side D cheap and defensive minded and let our left side push the Offense. Also frees up Money to Extend Miller if we can not spend on our right side.

LHD RHD
Hughes Schen
OEL Dermott
Rathbone Poolman

Burroughs

I would Also Trade Pearson, Hogs is not a 4th line player gives what could be a great energy line of Lazar Dakota and Lockwood
