Can’t see that being enough for Meier.

a future top 2 defenceman with a 2023 1st + isnt enough?

Change the title to “plan the trip to the golf course” then it’s accurate

hahahahaha so funny

That doesn't get mccabe half retained and the hawks aren't looking for defensemen, especially left D

All for getting critical pieces at deadline but you don’t give up young top 4 D for a rental. No chance we can sign Meier next year.
Sandin /Liligren are one of the top D pairings in the league this year and are signed to $1.4M deals & 4-5 years from FA. they’re not going anywhere.
McCabe is overpaid so maybe hawks know they need to retain to move him; I like the offer - no way he’s worth a 1st.

price was reported today to be a second un-retained and *closer* to a 1st at half, no way someone pays a first for him, espiecally with jones dragging him down, youre gonna be disappointed

i think they can resign him especially with the cap going up and JT expiring 2 years after this one

No chance

meier probably gets what, between 7.5 and 8.5? its doable

Well then your parade won't include McCabe. If the Hawks don't get the return they want, they'll just keep McCabe. They're under no pressure to move him.

Of course they don’t have to move him, but they should move everyone they can that doesn’t fit into their next competitive window which is…5 years away?
Offers won’t get better next year.
He’s not getting a 1st imo; maybe (only) if hawks retain .

His QO is $10M so doubtful he accepts that, but even if it’s 8x$8.5M - how can the Leafs fit that without gutting the team? Bunting, Samsonov, Kampf all need to re signed or replaced. Engvall, Kerfoot & Holl need to be replaced. Cap only going up $1M next year - maybe more but that requires league & PA to cooperate which they don’t do well.

Sure, then say goodbye to Nylander, Bunting, Kampf, Samsonov/Murray

McCabe is a known NTC - no trade to Canada guy. all 7 Canadian teams on his list

bro what😭😭😭😭😭

They don't have the money to afford those guys lol

seravalli reported all 6 but toronto

they can fit meier at 8x8 by just trading murray

and losing Kampf and Nylander in the next year.

kampf is up this year not next, and nope, brodie gone at 5M makes room for willy, especially if the cap goes up

right so Kampf would be gone and with Nylander probably getting $10mil+ we'd also need to replace Brodie's impacts.

nylander will get somewhere between 8-9 , these convos are all kind of irrelevant till we know whats happening with the cap

With cap going up contract demands also go up lol

not necessarily
