Obvious troll post is obvious.

Obvious building for the future is obvious

You traded away arguably the most gifted goal scorer the franchise has ever had for a defensive C, a middle of the pack 2nd rounder and a FUTURE middle of the pack first rounder. And you retained near half his salary. Beyond awful return.

You then managed to spend money on a guy just because of his name, and you're still tight against the cap with a 20 man roster.

Awful.

Who did I sign just because of his name? The matthews trade only happens if he doesn't want to extend. No reason to keep him and lose him for nothing

Exactly but this would be a good package for nylander or tavares maybe. Matthews especially scince youre retaining, danault ,byfeild AT LEAST 2 solid prospects 2-3 1sts 2 seconds a 3rd an a 4th. this is reasonable especially when you go back and look at the ror trade we gave up a 1st 2nd 3rd 4th gaudete and a prospect for ror at 75% retained accari and a prospect please reconsider posting this

I think danault is super underrated. Elite defensively and would put up 60+ points easily on the leafs. Has term too

Agreed

But we are talking Matthews not tavares or nylander

Ufa matthews though

IK oh yeah check out the maathew s to LA team I made its an actual trade

If they don’t win the cup this year tear it down

It's a terrible return for Nylander let a lone Matthews

Will resign in TO.

First point: From the perspective of a Kings fan, this valuation is way too low. Given that they’d have to pay a lot more, and there’s no guarantee he’d sign a long term deal, there’s too much risk.

Second point: Danault has a NMC. He won’t waive to a team that signals it’s rebuilding.
