Sujet: Hall and Staal
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>littlejerryseinfeld</b></div><div>i mean, its not an overpay at all. kerfoot and engvall are depth forwards and kerfoot is under contract past this year. we also have to retain a ton of money.

you really think taylor hall will continue to shoot 3%</div></div>

Don't know why you say Kerfoot is depth player. Even Engvall has secured a top 12 spot. Gee those two Sabres have 22 points this season, the two Leafs 17 points. Plus the Leafs lose two players and don't have those two two Sabres in the lineup for over two weeks. It's a marginal improvement to the Leafs at best. The Leafs have lots of good forwards. Certainly a lot better trade partners than the Leafs. Let's have this discussion at TDL. Sabres aren't getting that return from any team(s)

Sujet: my prediction with Laine
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>So, for Laine, you're giving up:
-Overpaid dman, that still has upside but hasn't shown it in a couple of years.
-Decent prospect that was alright in his first pro season.
-Good prospect that hasn't played in over a year, and has a pretty big question mark hanging over him.
-2nd round pick.

IMO, you've gotta give up something that you don't want to give up when you're getting a talent like Laine. Winnipeg has absolutely no reason to, and definitely shouldn't even think about trading him for question marks.</div></div>

Totally agree with you there. I could see a trade between WPG &amp; PHI going down like this : Laine + WIN's 3rd round pick (2021) to PHI / P.Myers + M.Frost + PHI's 1st round pick (2020).

It's fair value on both sides. PHI lose a guy they don't want to in Myers, which needs to happen to get a high end guy like Laine. Still, I don't think WIN does this perticular trade, considering they want a 2nd line C at least for Laine...even PHI hesitate, since they'll be in cap hell next season (2021-2022) trying to resign Hart, Laine, Sanheim, Niskanen, Laughton...

Sujet: Cap situation
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DirtyDangle</b></div><div>toronto is probably top 3 worst cap problems. i'd put tampa 1st, maybe sj 2nd, and toronto 3rd.</div></div>

Then you don't understand anything about how the cap works. The Islanders are terrible, Vancouver has major issues ahead. There are several teams with major cap allocated to players who are either, heavily overpaid and leaving their prime, getting big money for what they did in their prime or just terrible contracts in general. Cap hell happens when you have very good players you can't afford to keep because you have money tied up with guys who can't pull their weight. TO has zero of those. Every single player on their roster can be moved without any difficulty. Tampa doesn't have that situation. The Islanders have about 7 guys on their roster who make way more than they should and would be nearly impossible to move. Or will soon become impossible to move. That is cap hell. The Leafs are fine, they have too much talent to keep some depth guys but enough cheaper talent to replace the ones they may need to move. That's a good problem to have.

Sujet: BEANER GO BYE KAPPY SAY HI
I like bean but I just dont see the leafs moving Liligren for him as Dubas would probs want a RHD prospect coming in

now if bean was a RHD prospect and this was proposed leafs would probs accept.

As for the Kapenan trade its a pass for the following reason

in terms of Kaps value a recent post looked into his numbers and it was surprising.
Kaspari Kapanen - Even Strength Points Per 82-Games:

2018-19 (22 years old) = 44 Even Strength Points
2019-20 (23 years old) = 36 Even Strength Points (69 games) full season projected 42-45 points

- That's in roughly 13 even-strength minutes per game (with lots of PK time and no PP time).
- It also projects to 60+ total points if he's given a full time spot on a teams power-play unit.
- He's very solid defensively and is much more valuable than people here want to admit.
- And his contract adds even more value ($3,200,000 x 3 years with an RFA expiry at 25).

Compare that to someone like Zucker (Return = 1st + 2nd + Galchenyuk).

2018-19 (27 years old) = 28 Even Strength Points
2019-20 (28 years old) = 40 Even Strength Points

- He's 5 years older and in his late prime.
- His cap-hit is $2,300,000 higher with similar term.
- He was getting more ES ice-time than Kapanen.

I could prove the exact same point with a bunch of older guys like:

- Gabriel Pageau (Return = 1st + 2nd + 3rd)
- Blake Coleman (Return = 1st + 1st)

But Kapanen's ES production is more in line with guys like:

- Barzal
- Keller
- Monahan
- DeBrincat
- Seguin

The only major difference is that they get PP ice-time.
