Sujet: Tryna Fix Toronto - Updated
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>First of all, I didn't say ALL Leafs fans and I didn't call anyone dumb. Don't be so defensive.

As for your question, it's no secret that the guy does nothing but provide some points at the AHL level, with a large share of those coming on the PP. He doesn't play smart, he doesn't back check, he isn't reliable on the puck, he doesn't get inside the circles, he's an average skater and he's small. He has one dimension and it's quite debatable that his offensive production would translate to the NHL. He's now 23 with 175 games in the A without a call-up, so the Leafs obviously have major reservations. It's not like this is something I invented. Hell, 95% of the Leafs AGMs want to trade him. If he was worth anything, they'd want to keep him, especially given his tiny cap hit.</div></div>

Amazing skater, amazing edges great vision and hands. doesn’t back check and floats a lot. Has very poor body position and struggles to push people off the puck/win puck battles.

Personally I have wanted to see him on the Matthews line for a while. They have great chemistry. His value certainly isn’t high but it’s not zero either.

I would look to move him for another prospect stuck in depth or struggling to make it. Maybe mckeown or allard. Other than that maybe a 3rd.

Sujet: Hall Doesnt Help but ReSigns
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Just to correct two of your more erroneous statements, no one is suggesting that New Jersey would dream of trading 3rd overall, Arizona gets it via the lottery, and literally dozens of constructions by more informed Toronto guys like <a href="/users/SammyT51" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@SammyT51</a> , <a href="/users/Jamiepo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Jamiepo</a> and <a href="/users/palhal" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@palhal</a> demonstrate that with Ceci and Barrie departing, Toronto won't have cap problems next year. And unless you're living with Taylor Hall, you don't know where he wants to go.</div></div>

Leafs won’t be in cap hell, never really have been, other than losing a first to move Marleau, not the end of the world.

As far as demers... think the leafs would pass. Not that I think that contract would be hard to move. Leafs will probably need both those players next season especially with an 81.5m cap. His health has been questionable at best and he just doesn’t move the needle for a team that wants to compete.

I do think the Yotes would like to re sign Hall but who knows where he ends up at this point. Question marks all over the league, much instability. Yotes certainly have the cap space, but do they have the money?

Sujet: When the Cap is Flat Trades must be made
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Tavares? Went home
Maroon? Went home
Stamkos? Was supposed to go home but the leafs were beyond horrible
Kane? See Stamkos but Sabres
Toews? Jets didn't exist at the time
It's never been uncommon for a player to go home if his hometown team is performing well. The Yotes are gonna exist in 5 years, stop being dumb. They just got new ownership to keep them where they are, and Matthews refused to sign longer than 5 years. Toronto is also a huge media circus. Players tend to prefer it outside of major markets, a la Phil Kessel. There is a genuine chance he leaves, don't act like it's impossible, and don't act so indignantly.</div></div>

So with maroon in Tampa now your list consists of... Tavares.

No one is saying it’s impossible. Just not likely and certainly not any where near a sure thing that he would be moved anywhere.
