Fleury isn't waiving. Minnesota a cap hell team have no reason to trade a cheaper back-up G for more expensive G who would want to be a starter.

why are the leafs adding a good prospect to get an older, worse and more expensive goalie?

Liljegren is better than Fabbro. Samsonov and Fleury are equals, so no improvment there. Carolina is a contender, so won't trade Pesce.

fluery would waive, but this is an overpay by the leafs

No disrespect but he wouldn't. He's made it clear he's not moving, waiving his family anymore and in his potentially last year, he's made it clear his family comes 1st . Your right it's an overpay but minnesota doesnt have the cap either way

He’s 50k more expensive which is nothing…
And he is what the leafs need in the playoffs.
Min is struggling in the goaltending department and would want Sammy

The leafs need to be better defensively and fabbro is among the top 20 defensive defencemen in the league…

Minnesota isn't struggling. Since Dean E was fired, Gus Bus is being back to his old self including having over .930 save. Fleury also played an amazing game letting in one Goal. So Sammy wouldn't start in Minnesota. Minnesota doesn't even have 50 k in cap to make a call up at all right now. every little cent matters to minnesota

leafs do none of these and pesce isn’t available

Canes are not selling, and does this make you a good enough team to make it out of the 2nd round?

liljegren is better than fabbro though so the preds should add

Nah disagree. Fabbro is a solid defensive Dman who has looked better offensively this year. I say it’s a fair offer.

5 more points in 11 more games wow!! yeah lilys better so the preds need to add
