Sujet: Parayko
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tsmash</b></div><div>I think it would probably have to be liljegren, neimela, 2024 first, and robertson

I dont know that he is worth that much but I think that is how much he would cost</div></div>

high five for only the second person to actually answer the question instead of telling everyone how awesome or terrible Parayko is, or how dumb I am for suggesting theres a fit.

Personally I think that's way too much. Id be fine with Liljegren OR Niemela, but not both

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mediumyeet</b></div><div>I think a 1st + Minten type prospect + Liljegren probably gets the ball rolling but wouldn't get the deal done.</div></div>

I appreciate the answer, and thank you for actually answering the question. I think that would be huge haul, and I don't think asking for a team's best forward and best defensive prospect, PLUS a 1st round pick to start is reasonable at all

Sujet: This still makes too much sense
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>swinny</b></div><div>As I have said, Oleksiak maybe a slight downgrade, but brings and element sorely lacking on the Leafs blueline with term. Term. Key phrase bud. Term..... and it's a good contract to boot. I ask - who would you rather tangle with Tkachuk? Oleksiak or Brodie? I digress.

Seems a lot of people don't like Tolvanen. That is fine. For me, he looks to round out at a fine top 6 forward who can hit can get in dirty areas..... something again, the Leafs long term lack.

Neimela is not anywhere near NHL ready. 2 years away. Even then, for me, he remains an enigma. Solid first year in the AHL granted.

To call this laughable is simply short sighted. Leafs will have a hard time meeting Nylander's demands. Oleksiak, Liligren and Timmins are just fine for me as a RD in 2024-25.

Eberle may go away, but it leaves the Leafs with serious flexibility to fill the roster out via free agency amd the Marlies. Knies likely goes into the top 6. I can see Tolvanen playing his way there.... with like $20 million to spend.

If that is the case, is it so laughable?</div></div>

Yes. It's absolutely still laughable even with your "justification"

Sujet: AM34 Trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KINGS67</b></div><div>I think so too.

Trading a player like Mathews is very hard to do due to the fact his trade value is almost impossible to meet. So if a trade ever were to happen I’d expect something close to this but then will kinda fall short. Only so many teams can meet the trade demand.

Anyways. Both Clarke and Byfield won’t be in a trade together it’s one or the other imo with other top prospects/picks. But LA won’t trade for Mathews. They’d try and sign him instead which is a strong possibility. If TOR ends up resigning him great.</div></div>

I disagree. If the Leafs are willing to retain salary, which they would be I'm sure if they were getting cheaper cost controlled NHL ready (or close to it) talent in return. At that point, Matthews is an all world talent at just over 5 million, potentially even less if a 3rd team is in the mix. Plus, the exclusive negotiating rights for the full season. A team like LA would be smart to make a deal like this. The location is close to home for him so the chance of re-signing is high, and for at least one season/playoff they could ice Matthews/Kopitar/Danault down the middle

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>One season of Auston Matthews, at the cost of three essential elements of our future . . . no, thanks; we have the patience to wait until 2024. Imagine how good our squad will be after two Stanley Cup campaigns, in which Brandt Clarke will have played at least one, and the only significant players who'll be expiring are Viktor Arvidsson and Matt Roy (highly likely, along with Anze, to re-up if we sign AM).</div></div>

Hey, if you don't want one of the best pure goal scorers on the planet at just over $5 million and exclusive negotiating rights for his future, I'm sure just about any other team will give up a similar or better package. You're right, retaining Arvidsson and Roy is probably more important
