<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DeadWingsv2</b></div><div>I don't like that St. Louis trade. The value doesn't feel bad, I just don't see how it moves the needle forward enough on the rebuild to part with Mantha. Sure, Dunn is a good piece and he's young enough to get better, but are we CONVINCED he's a legit #1 defenseman? I just don't see the point in giving up Mantha for a high cost player, when we could get higher ceiling prospects and picks that might turn into way more. Sure, they might not pan out as well, but in a rebuild, I'd rather have the lotto ticket(s).</div></div>

I understand your view. To be honest I just dont see Mantha being that good. Look at his production. It is just not that great. He has great potential but i dont think Detroit is good fit for him. And regarding Dunn i think there are plenty of LHD in the pipe that can become #1 d-man. Detroit is stacked at LHD in the pipe, but bringing him in now will also ease the transition for some of the prospects.

Sujet: Leafs Trade Deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Sorry you see your side of the story so one sided. Of course Engvall is not top six. But you seem to think that a top team is going to trade their top six players and picks and prospects for UFA Granlund. And all teams have to send cap back in a trade.

No teams are who are going on a gotta flop top six players and give Nashville a whole lot more. It's a ridiculous fit anyway, Leafs and Nashville. Leafs have lots of wingers and then there is the quarantine period. We'll see, but gotta think these homer Nashville fans are going to really disappointed in the returns.</div></div>

You know what? I am not even a Nashville fan :-) just found this trade so ridiculous. I have seen a lot of Granlund trade ideas with some thinking behind it that makes much more sense than this. Not all teams need to send back cap. Maybe as you say, Leafs and Nashville will not do business.

But I have a feeling there might be something cooking with all rumors going around. But I don’t think it is Granlund for Engvall :-)
