. . . more like "WITH ZERO CHANCE."

Six seasons of Colton Parayko at #1RD in return for a first, the hope that Liljegren turns out to be a second-pairing defender, and the hope that Timmins turns into an actual NHLer?

I don't think so.

Never mind Toropchenko and the third.

Your values are severely skewed here. Remember, it's YOU who think that you want Parayko there for 6 seasons.

Sure Leafs could have paid more for Parayko here. But at the same time Liljegren is already a very formidable top 4 guy. Don’t act like he isn’t

Liljegren isn't close to Parakyo or else Toronto would have no reason to do this

Parayko is a legit top pair DFD who kills penalties and averages 23+ minutes per night. Liljegren is an okay second pair guy but he's 24 and I don't know how much more upside there is to him. Timmins is nothing more than a warm body, and the fact that you also have the Blues sending back Toropchenko *and* a decent pick makes this hilariously slanted towards the Leafs.

I'd also argue that Montreal is going to want more than Nick Robertson to turn Kampf's 3x$2.4M left after this year into Evans' expiring $1.7M, but I'm sure the army of Habs fans will be here shortly to do that for me.

He isn't.

Is Liljegren decent?

Yes.

Formidable?

LOL

Hahahahahaha WHAT???? Not 2-3 weeks ago, we had articles every day for a week north of the border about how badly he was struggling yet again. He;s a mistake prone D that gets benched come playoff time. Good heavens.

It is jaw-dropping that anyone could imagine the Blues need to send back two solid pieces.

Habs pass

Everyone is rightly going on about the trades so I’ll just point out that thinking Chris Tanev signs for 1x2.5 is laughable

I did not say he was close to Parayko
