<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GM_SZK</b></div><div>I do like the idea of just saying ok Klingberg was a mistake and…

But Niemala? He is a smaller less aggressive Klingberg with zero experience. Not an NHLer now for sure and never imo.

Also Roberson and Domi on a third line is scary.</div></div>

I don't disagree, but Niemela can at least stand in the way, which Klingberg cannot and once Klingberg is gone he is no longer an option - which is what is needed. You can't force play Reaves and Klingberg. they are not good at Hockey at this time. 3rd yah maybe but then you will have a functioning line with players that fills a purpose. Kokonen was pretty solid in training camp i though, but Timmonds will be back soon and you need the capspace for him and Liljegren.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Joronto</b></div><div>Can not see Tatar signing at this price even if his agent wasn't able to figure something out yet. Nylander is much more effective on his strong side. If I would switch him just to try a perfection line with M&amp;M. I would love to see Galch back. He worked quit well with Tavares and Willy. If Kase is healthy he has more value than a 4th line player. He could have a breakout season if there will be no more concussions. And Kämpf should be the 3rd Line Shoutdown center. Dubas didn't acquire him to put 1.5 M on scratches. A Mikheyev trade is much more likely than a Brooks trade. More useful, less expensive.</div></div>

In this scenario there are no 3rd 4th line distinction. One is offensive the other is defensive....you can call it utillity lines 1-2

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Copenhagen</b></div><div>Yes so the Leafs have cap space from injuries and taxi squad up and down currently at $762,921. So as long as your trades dont go over that amount. I am to lazy to add up what you did.</div></div>

What i wrote is a simplified way of understanding and a rule of thumbs way of looking at it. In reality it is way more complicated. Dubas and Pridham are moving people up and down right now to accrue as much as possible. It might not seem that way, but Freddie is injured(But not listed as such just yet) If Leafs can play Campbell, Hutchinson and Veihilainen the next week and a half. Then they can put Freddie Andersen on LTIR in retrospect, and have him come of it almost immediately. That way they have banked/accrued his cap hit(5m) (14 days) for trade deadline cap space . You cannot accrue cap if you are using the LTIR pool. All these paper transactions are done to stay as close to 81.5 mil as possible.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Barilko14</b></div><div>I consider Anderson to be worth a 2nd/3rd.

Personally, I wouldn't trade Dermott for Hjalmarsson straight up. I'm not giving up years of control of Dermott for less than half a year of Hjalmarsson. Between Brodie, Muzz, Holl, Bogo the Leafs have enough PKers/def dmen. Fit just doesn't work for me.</div></div>

I agree with what you say, they are both overpays. But you pay for insurance. I don't wanna see a playoff series were I have to resort to Marincin, Liljegren, Sandin instead of Muzzin, Brodie or Reilly. Then I would prefer to have an old but proven NHL shutdown D as backup. Besides either Dermott or Kerfoot are likely to be lost in the Expansion draft. Hill serves two two purposes. He has future potential, and is a much better option than Hutchinson should Campbell or Andersen go down.
