Absolute zero chance the Hawks pay FOR Mantha. You can pay us to take that cap dump.

What exo said!

Nylander starts with Wilson.. Caps fans don’t wanna trade him? Okay. Leafs look elsewhere.

While the Leafs trade MIGHT make sense....Kuzy at 3.9 for 2 years and a 1st for a pending UFA making overtures about wanting to be (to) well paid, think the Leafs are going to say no and be looking for a much younger NHL player paired with a first.

Hawks are not paying to take Mantha. Hawks will have less than zero in that player without a signifcant sweetener attached to him. Counter is Collin Blackwell for Mantha, 2nd round pick and a 4th (basically what the Hawks received to take Zaitsev).

We can't afford what Nylander is asking anyways, especially with 3.9 mil retained on Kuzy. Leafs-Caps trade won't work with the big names. Just how it is.

I would take Kuznetsov over Wilson with that said I would not trade Nylander for either

Kuznetsov is older, overpaid (even with the retention), and doesn’t fit Treliving’s style of play. He’s also on the decline. Wouldn’t fit into Toronto’s top 6 because he refused to play the wing in Washington and he wouldn’t make the top 6 centre (& frankly Domi is a better 3C option if needed).. there’s just no fit in Toronto

I said I like him over Wilson not for the Leaf's Not sure what the obsession for Wilson is about

yea lets trade our best playoff performer for a washed up, cokehead, locker room issue. great idea

They have no need for kuzy
