I'm sure someone else would have interest in Brodie as a deadline acquisition, Vancouver just isn't that team.

Yeah, I get that, Just leave insulting Marner not preforming in the playoffs to me...

TBH, I'm surprised the oilers haven't been in a ton of rumours for defensemen

Ok, let's do this 1 by 1:
Oilers: Campbell costs at least a 1st and a 2nd to dump, so would the Oilers do Hyman and a 1st for Marner? Heck yes and they gain cap space somehow
CBJ: would you do any prospect (with maybe an exception to Bedard) for a current top 2-3 player in the NHL 1 for 1? Heck yes
Canucks: Brodie half retained can fetch a 2nd+ being the best defensive defensemen analytically last year, so, would you trade a 1st AND get to dump all 6 million of Tyler Myers contract? A no brainer
Capitals: Bertuzzi half retained last year fetched a 1rst and a 4rth, so if you got offered only 1 1st, would you do it and flip him for more at TDL? 10000%
Sens: You get to shed salary for a lesser rate than what salary dumping should be. Send take this in a heartbeat and go sign Pinto

So, are you trolling? Or are you just a Leafs hater?

You forgot that the Canucks are also dumping all 6 mill of Myers and only get Brodie half retained

Let's do this 1 by 1 again:



Oilers trade: Both Hyman and Marner have NMCs

CBJ trade: Matthews has a NMC and a cap hit of over 11 million which CBJ can't afford; Fantilli is on his ELC and is projected to be an elite #1 centre

Canucks trade:: Canucks are not giving up an unconditional high 1st with no lottery protection just to swap rentals

Capitals trade #1: The Caps are not trading someone they just took at #8 overall in a deep draft for a rental

Capitals trade #2: Bertuzzi just signed with the Leafs with the intention of signing long-term and has a NMC; Capitals are not giving up an unconditional first with no lottery protection for a rental

Sens trade: All the trades listed above that were declined nullifies this one because the Leafs have no cap space



Your trolling is weak sauce, homer

Check his username.

So again: you are ignoring the trade values but let's break this down:

Oilers: Your counter was that Hyman and Marner have NMCs, meaning you and your trolling know that you're wrong
CBJ: They will make room for Matthews, they would obviously take certainty of a top 3 player over potential 10/10, so again, keep trolling and hating
Canucks: Monahan was packaged with a 1st this past year... AND you add in the best defensive defensemen in the NHL
Capitals: How would you know that they will finished 8th last? They made a bunch of moves and Bert makes them significantly better... So keep trolling and ignoring facts
Sens trade: Again, ignored the trade itself because you know how much of a sweetheart deal it is

Keep trolling and ignoring facts

If you are talking about me, I'm a Leafs fan who knows that trading 70% of the value of players isn't a good idea

I'm sorry that not every Leafs trade promoted by you is widely accepted.

My condolences.

I'm sorry that opposing fans won't get good players for 70% of their values

My apologies

You’re wrong about all that 95% of the people in here have told me they are fair

Name 1 person in this thread besides Leafsfan98 that told you that.

Or I might not believe you.

The Caps JUST made their first top 10 pick in forever. Why the hell would we trade him lol. Remember what happened last time we traded a top prospect before he played in Washington? We're not doing that again. And take Mantha with the first for Bertuzzi and you have a deal. Otherwise we can't afford it.

How? Please show your work.

Monahan was a 6x1 and got dumped with a 1st, Mrazek was 3.8/2 and got dumped with a 1rst for a second (a second in value)... Combine big cap hit with term, leads to big cap dump

Let me be more specific: How does Edmonton gain cap space with this transaction?

My bad, thought Campbell was making 5.5 mill instead of 5 mill...

And they have to replace Campbell on the roster. They're looking at +$1.5M in cap or more, which they don't have available at this moment.

And then Marner's deal expires at the same time as Draisaitl's and Bouchard's, it's doubtful they'll have space to re-sign all three with McDavid's extension looming.

So this would be a 2-fer hole shot at the Cup, then breaking up the band. The deal is a short term win for Edmonton, but not sure it's better in the long run.

Go read the 3 pages of comments

If the Oilers win the cup though in those 2 years, don't you think it would be worth it? And it's not like the Oilers won't still have 2 of Marner, McDavid and Draisaitl anyway

As long as they can keep 2 of the 3, yes it will have been worth it.

I think they could realistically keep 2 of the 3

So, basically, you can't.

That's too bad.

I won't speak on the rest of the teams but this is a very poor interpretation of Washington and what Sensonfire said about them. The comment about picking 8th was in regards to last year and referring to the Nylander trade, and that trade isn't remotely feasible for Washington not only because no team would trade a guy they just picked in the top 10 for a rental, but also because Washington doesn't have the cap space to take on Nylander.

You're comment about the Caps making a bunch of moves also isn't true, even if fans wish it was, in fact it's been one of the main gripes fans have had with management. Outside of a small trade for Edmundson and one single key signing, that being Pacioretty, the Capitals have been largely unable to make moves to the dismay of fans and management. With the team the way it currently is, and the season seemingly is a bridge year into a bigger year next year, there's little incentive for Washington to move a 1st round pick when the team is unlikely to make it past the 2nd round (putting it optimistically), and that's if they make the playoffs at all. See 2021 for what the Capitals are much more likely to do (mid round picks for depth like Larsson and Johansson). Bertuzzi also has a NMC and has no incentive to waive it, especially when he clearly wants to be in Toronto, so I see no way in which he suddenly decides to be traded away.

No I could but I don’t feel like quoting 50 comments when you’re perfectly capable of reading them yourself get a grip bud or just don’t comment if youre too lazy to follow through
