Actually Kerfoot has M NTC, but Calgary certainly looks attractive to be on a trade list. Really though, it doesn't help the Leafs cap much as Leafs still would taking 2.5m Kylington and sending away 3.5m

The Flames give up Kylington, a 2nd, 5th and two 7th?

The Flames don’t touch this one.

Kylington > Kerfoot.

I wouldn't go that far.

Kylington has had one season, where he looked very good. Kerfoot has an actual sample size where the Flames know exactly what they are getting. Kylington could be a one year wonder. Don't think he is, but, he could be.

However, given the Leafs cap situation, Kylington is an overpay based on contract control and that one season. The draft pucks made me laugh.

Point is, Leafs are looking to get some value in a Kerfoot deal, not hit a home run (although I wouldn't complain!).

kerfoot is only owed 700k salary, 50% would be 1.75M on paper but only 300k, so that would be an huge overpay, and kylington seems ok but i think the leafs would target Top 4 RHD, also doubt we go for an offensive dmen

Kerfoot is a fine middle 6 piece but all the numbers that Sutter emphasizes in terms of possession Kerfoot is coming of his worst season as a pro. Toronto has minimal leverage in a deal and no one is giving up good NHL pieces for him.

Oh ok I thought it was 1.75 mil, i dragged the wrong person in to the trade, I will change it

Calm down Kylington is not that good

hmmm it was actually his best year if anything

I agree

Lots of contending teams would give up a decent amount for a player like kerfoot

stats agree too, more ice time, more hits, more pts, more takeaways, 51 pts with no powerplay time

i honestly think his value is a second round from a contending team, but i guess we"ll soon find out since hes the main guy to get moved for cap

The comment says in terms of possession.. in the regard it was his career low year. He's gotten consistently worse in his extended metrics year over year. Sutter can be old school but he's always preached how important possession numbers are to him.

ur possesion numbers will be worse if ur playing against top 6 opponents everynight, which he did

That's why there are relative numbers that isolate the player, Tavares and Nylander had bumps in their standard numbers while a slight hit to the relative, Kerfoot nosedived again like he has every season since he's been in the league, this isn't a one season anomaly.

so that 1 stat matters more than all the other combined?

My comment specifically mentioned that.. it will be okay, he's a good middle six player that is a bit of a passenger in some regards, just happens to be the parts of the game that are important to another teams system. Could the same not be said about his 51 points? Of course it was up this season, he played with Tavares and Nylander.

Those stats aren't everything tho, kerfoot is a player you can play anywhere,play defensively,and physical

Which Sutter likes in his players more than anything I

I changed the trade

Agreed, 100%, they're not everything but when you look at the trends in some of those numbers it's not necessarily what a team would spend good assets on to acquire. He's a good middle 6 winger no one is doubting that. His value is at his highest it will ever be right now and I don't think a lot of teams will want to buy on the sell high candidate. As I mentioned to the other guy you could argue his points popped off cause of his line mates, just as his possession has declined because of his matchups./

its the opposite, his value is probably at his lowest since most teams are cap stranded af and he has a no trade clause, that being said the leafs dont seem to be in a rush to trade him. hes a player keefe and dubas clearly like and count on

His points probably wouldn't be as high playing with Kadri and Toffoli but how many would he get with those 2, I know Sutter is putting Toffoli on line 1 but he hasn't be meshing well with Lindholm so I think mangiapine will be first line

I hope they resign him but I doubt it happens

cant fit him sadly, with knies ELC he easily get replaced ice time wise, jarnkrok will handle the defensive duties he had, also the next $$$ we get is all for bunting
