Montreal says no, Anderson may be on a bad contract but he's still a producing NHL player, a late first with the chance that the player they draft never makes the NHL isn't worth Anderson alone.

Well you’ve made the Leafs worse by downgrading Nylander to Wilson and Jarnkrok to Anderson

Montreal takes the cap space and runs bro. That would be a great ROI.

I love Anderson but imo, if someone offers us a first for him with no retention, we have to consider it. Maybe if he added Jarnkok and we added a fourth

He's Haggling
He like myself wants a Sweetner.
That maybe fair value given the cap 100%
But the Leaf Slayer being traded to the Leafs . . . Hard Sell.
He made us consider you actual Rivals again like we do Senators and Bruins who play with Hate and Purpose each game we play.


Not saying No
Just saying something else
Villeneuve would be my ask

MTL isnt looking to Dump Anderson as Hughes says often he gets calls on Anderson a lot and thinks the returns too low.
We're in a position where we're just as happy to let him play out his contract to the final TDL then move him.
It'll be just as Hughes Rebuild is nearing its end anyways.

Villeneuve makes losing Anderson and have to face him often a little less painful
Villeneuve is in a unique position where we have 2/3 RD with 2 years left and pending UFA's at the time Villeneuve and Mailloux should be ready
Sooner if we move either Savard or Kovacevic this TDL

Wings say no and it's ashame you don't know why

Jankrok is a no. No need for him, no place to play him and not helping Leafs out of cap he'll while giving up a pick

Don’t worry WSH would not trade a winner (Wilson) for a loser (Nylander). So it’s irrelevant if the Leafs get better or worse. Good luck paying Nylander $10M.
