Sabres do not want Brodie. Why would they help the leafs out of a cap crunch without some sort of prospect/pick coming back.

Sabres want to make the playoffs and this player helps them. So they're helping themselves.

Oh for ****s sake

Blues still say no

Already have Dahlin and Power. No thanks to Brodie

I don't know anything about that Jimmy prospect from the blues but I want him purely for his name!

Wtf is with that Brodie trade. Brodie is our best defensive defenseman. That makes the team worse

Leafs need cap room.

Brodie >>> Lyubushkin
Currently Buffalo has 5 LHD and 4 RHD, completing this trade would give them 6 LHD and 3 RHD.
Regardless, this would be good trade for Buffalo and they would be foolish to pass on it.

You can never have enough good defencemen.

So your solution for our cap issues are to trade from an area of weakness (defensive defenseman) and make it worse? What?

I don't see Nylander being a fit for the blues realistically. He is going to want to be paid on his next extension and don't think the blues will give him his 9 mil plus money he wants. Also the blues need to rework their defense and trading for Nylander takes cap space and assets away from that.

Who else is there to trade? I don’t want the Leafs giving up a 1st in a Murray trade. Brodie is the only candidate.

Heh. Problem is, he's one of the top prospects in the league and not available.

Bring less cap back in Nylander trade
