Sujet: Theres a trade on the horizon I Feel it in my loins my LEAF LOINS
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HockeyIsMyPassion61</b></div><div>Do you honestly think that would be the winning bid on Murphy? The answer would be no it wouldn't be. No way the Hawks accept that. Add Knies and they might possibly consider but Niemela doesn't cut it.</div></div>

If Chychurn's ask is a 1st and a high level prospect ( Which Niemela is ) then yes that is a reasonable offer. Asking for Knies for Murphy already outweighs the trade to the point where Chicago would have to give more to get him. If Chychurn's price is that and he is at the same value as Murphy that's the baseline. The Leafs already adding in Kerfoot already outweighs the trade in Chicago's favour to the point where they are winning the trade outright.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sens65</b></div><div>Ok, here's an exercise for you:

Please explain in which universe that trade makes any sense for Chicago?</div></div>

Chicago are already going through a rebuild. Engvall and Holl are just 1 yr left players that can fill in the gaps in their roster and keep Chicago cap compliant. Connor Murphy is young enough that he still has alot of facevalue as a player and he is not sticking around for a rebuild that might last about the length of the contract that he just signed. He is at a cap hit and term that most teams can manage even at a bargain what most teams would see but his previous injuries are where his value is marred. If he is healthy he is easily a Top 4 Caliber Defenseman who is responsible back checking in his own zone and moves bodies in front of the net and protects the goalie when injured he is just another LTIR cap casualty. Murphy won't fetch alot but even without a fair trade gauge he is easily worth at least two roster players and a mid to high pick at best and it's a price that I believe the Leafs will pay for a better backline.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafsfan7788</b></div><div>No point in getting Dvorak now that McCann fills that 3rd-line center position imo, as he mainly plays center. Leafs could sign a better winger hopefully without having to give up assets.</div></div>

So my thought is this? What about Rickard Rakell as a proper replacement to Hyman? 1 more year left on his deal. 3.8Mil against the cap. Plays great two way hockey and I believe is a great Penalty killer that this team needs? Maybe the Idea is to use Mccann as a 2nd Line winger to Tavares and Nylander and place Rakell with Matthews/Marner as a much cheaper alternative to Hyman instead of paying 6 Mil for Hyman you pay a fraction of the price with Rakell who was projected to get 50 pts last season but you could easily see that number rise if Rakell plays with Marner and Matthews and maybe Rakell can turn into a 30/30 Guy maybe?
Then with either Dermott or Holl chosen maybe Dermott? The Leafs will still have their top 4 of Muzzin, Holl, Rielly, And Brodie. Sandin gets a permanent top 6 role and maybe the Leafs bring in a Hakanpaa for 3rd Pair RHD because Chynowith is now our Defense Assistant Coach and might want him aboard? Then the goalie situation and our 3rd line situation becomes very interesting?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BStinson</b></div><div>I don’t see how this benefits Detroit. Vrana looked promising in his short stint with Detroit and is going to get more ice time there versus Washington.</div></div>

So Kerfoot is on the last year of his deal and the FA class in 2022 looks better than this year's. So I'm expecting the cap to rise after this season and Detroit could make do with the extra amount of cap space for Yzerman to make a huge splash there Kerfoot holds a roster spot just because. Dermott is defensive value and you slowly build up the defensive pieces with him and Hronek and others. Amirov and the Pick could be either kept or used as trade bait to get a good player on the block like a Lebanc or someone else
