Just wanted to say thanks. I made this post just because I started hearing that Montreal could be interested in him and wanted to learn more. I really appreciate all of the feedback/Mock trade values/comparisons.

Sujet: What next
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ricochetii</b></div><div>The next step is continued patience.
The only pressure point right now is unladening our surplus of LHD, which preferably involves adding a potential scoring forward.

Newhook and Anderson will have their opportunity to assert themselves on the 2nd line next season with a healthy Dach.
This will likely be Anderson's last opportunity to prove he can be an effective producer in this team's system.
Newhook will have a longer leash, but will need to start showing whether he is a top 6 contributor or more likely to end up as a 3rd liner.
Those opportunities won't be there if we add an NHL ready top 6 option immediately.

If the right deal comes along for an NHL ready top 6 winger, you can add them to the competition for a 2nd line spot, but there's no rush for a Zegras or Johnston if it's going to cost us a higher end asset like a top 10 1st or Hutson.
As much as I like Struble and the possibility of Engstrom becoming a staple, our offense needs a threat from the back end and we have to determine if that is Hutson before we even consider moving him.
Same for Barron. We need to stick with him until we can confidently define where he fits, even if it means he doesn't make it and loses all value.

When we move Monahan, Matheson, Savard, Harris, etc., we will have expendable assets towards targeting a forward without dipping into our high end prospects/picks.
I'd take Johnston, but there are a few players that are a hard no to moving and Hutson is one of them.</div></div>

Your first line "Continued patience" perfectly sums up what Montreal needs &gt; What the fans want

Sujet: Marner the Hab V2
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jonh514</b></div><div>Where did the "he's not a playoff performer" narrative come from? The Leafs are bad in the playoffs, true, but Marner has put up good points his last few playoffs:

14 points in 11 games
8 points in 7 games

Seems like a superstar delivering in the playoffs to me...</div></div>

It's less so the stat's and the overall strength of play that gives him that reputation. Even Matthews come playoff time is willing to throw the body, take a hit. Playoff's comes down to players who put their bodies on the line for the team, Tkachuk for example last year with the broken sternum, played through it until he physically couldn't anymore, I hate the Tkachucks but respect. Nylander a few years ago had a really ****y play during playoffs, was lazy chasing down a puck that would've been icing if he had put the effort in. He's a really talented player but that one weak play in a close game infuriated all my leafs fans friends for months afterward.
Marner panics, he's a little soft, purely on points he's had more bad playoffs than good ones. So yeah imo he hasn't figured out how to play postseason YET.

So to start with the trades, I agree with almost everything, all the players in the gone by TDL this year is fine, I don't think we're going to get a huge return for Gally (Or Anderson unless he continues to step it up), Gally doesn't have the value required to get a good return, he's too old at too much cap hit. That being said, Gally should retire a Hab, or even if he'd like to resign for pennies and play 4th line for a few more years after this contract is up.
Where I mainly disagree is your understanding/opinion of who constitutes the core. Evans/RHP (or even Barron IN THE RIGHT DEAL) can be traded if the right deal comes along.
For the trades I just don't see the team trading Wideman, he's spent the entire year on LTIR, he's on an expiring deal, and he'd be a contenders 7th or 8th D, even for a 7th round pick he's just not that player anymore. What he is however is a room guy, Caufield, Dach, Slaf, Dvo, the dressing room seems to really like him.
For the Edmonton trade I feel the value is off for Montreal(But I will hear the opposite shortly so whatever), Montreal doesn't really need more LHD, Campbell's contract is too awful to pickup, and Holloway is just kinda meh. Not great for a 2/3C, a 2nd pairing shot blocking monster, a solid 2G a depth D, and PEZZ.
Too much given for Zegras imo, Beck and a 1st would be my initial offer, and I'd only add Harris if that was refused. Plus Anderson doesn't actually help Anaheim, no one wants him right now.
Matheson is worth more.
And finally Lindstrom despite being ranked at 8 is likely to go much higher, even potentially 2nd depending on how the draft goes.
