Sujet: Is Denis Malgin Actually The Answer

He did have a very strong overseas last year. Dubas has always liked him a lot.

I never understood why we traded Marchement for him on the day of the trade and I still don't. I felt like Marchement was the exact type of player we needed at the time. But we will see if Malgin turns into anything. He is entering his prime now, so if there is ever a time, it is now.

Sujet: Contender

Very Good Team. Contender 100%. The Kadri signing and the trade to get Huberdeau and Weegar was exceptional.

Their D corp is one of the best in the league. Strong goaltending. Strong forward group. Only potential spot of upgrade in my mind is to acquire another top 9 guy who can also play in the top 6. In your AGM you got Milano for that spot, which could work for sure. I am also not sure how good Vladar is. So I would keep extra cap open to get a potential proven back up around deadline time if needed.

This team is dangerously good.

Sujet: This team kinda sucks

I agree with you. Their forward group is good but I don't like their bottom 6 very much. Goaltending is good. Left side defence is super suspect. No Idea why they traded Weegar. They have a giant Weegar sized hole on D.

This team is gonna have to fight to make the playoffs in my mind. Bubble team. They aren't terrible by any means but I don't see them being a contender.

OH and they are more than 3m over the cap still which they will need to solve. With very few prospects and picks.

Management has done a very poor job from the trade deadline and the off season in my mind. They were in a great position before the TDL this past year and now they look quite rough.

Sujet: Vegas Trade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>theleano1</b></div><div>You also have brossoit on LTIR. He won't miss the season they don't have the cap to do it</div></div>

I signed Sandin to a 3 year deal which pushed him up to 2.2m a year. 2 years he gets a lot less.

But Vegas would have a lot of options when Brossoit is back. They aren't gonna have 3 nhl goalies. 1 goes down and that will make the cap work. They can send a guy like armadio down also.

It would be tight if and when they are healthy and if they decide to keep a 22 person roster. But this is more than manageable.

I made the Vegas side of this here https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/3661917 - They are not in cap hell at all. This trade works no problem for them. Lehner is LTIR all year. The Pacioretty trade solved the cap problem for them.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>cooliny</b></div><div>No shot Vegas trades two cheap and good defensemen for a bunch of the Leaf's leftovers</div></div>

If you leave your Leaf Hate glasses on then sure. But Kerfoot is a middle 6 winger who is very quick and good defensively. He would slot in nicely for Vegas in their top 9 (they have a spot for him based on what I see). Holl is a servicable bottom pair defensemen and would replace Whitecloud (although worse). Hague and Sandin I valued similarly. It was since they were both not signed and maybe they would sign for the other team. Whitecloud is definitely a nice piece here though and I recognize that.

I can see why Vegas would turn this down. I can also see why they accept. But to say these are "just" a bunch of leaf leftovers is foolish.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GroinPucker</b></div><div>Vegas says no pretty easily actually, you could argue that the Leafs could be getting the two best players in the deal.</div></div>

I valued the pieces in this order:
Whitecloud as the most value piece in the trade
Sandin and Hague tied for value
2nd rounder/Kerfoot
Holl

Vegas has a nice Kerfoot sized hole on their roster right now. But I can see why they don't do this.

No not on those examples.. BUT San Fran is short for San Francisco.

Short forms don't work for everything. Just like it doesn't work for Florida.

But Tampa Vs Tampa Bay 100% works and that's why people use it.

I would personally want more for Sheifele - add a 1st round pick to that package.

Maybe add one more B piece/prospect/pick coming over from Montreal to Winnipeg for PLD as well.

Sujet: Blockbuster trade at TDL

Meier is an RFA at years end. How much would he command to resign? 8m+? Leafs can't afford another 8m player.

Trade doesn't make sense for the Leafs.

San Jose would really need to like Sandin and Robertson to do this. I assume they would pass or get more.

Lazy for sure. Can't argue that. As for Disrespectful... That's a you problem and not a real problem. There are definitely things in the world to feel disrespected by. The word Tampa, instead of Tampa Bay should not be on that list. You are just making life so much more miserable for yourself if you allow such meaningless things to bother you.

Sujet: Vegas should just blow it up

Why are you blowing up Vegas? They are an extremely solid team. They had terrible injury luck last year. If they deal with normal injuries, they are for a sure a playoff team and a competitor at that.

Wow... No thanks from the Leafs. Even if you removed the 2 firsts, I would pass. Risto for 5 more years is a long time. 3m cap hit would be good for him though. I would just rather keep Muzzin and go with him. Muzzin at his best was very good for the Leafs.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boltsradynasty</b></div><div>Where is Tampa Bay getting the cap space. By the Way IT'S TAMPA BAY NOT TAMPA PEOPLE</div></div>

People short form words in all aspects of life, to make things easier or out of laziness. Another example is we say LA instead of Los Angeles. Tampa is the short form of Tampa Bay.

As for the cap space. They accept Holl + the 1st and then they put Holl on Waivers and he likely gets claimed. Or they keep him and his 2m cap because someone got hurt and they can make it work. 1st + Holl for nothing is just absurd. Tampa would accept it and figure out the rest after wards.

Cam Talbot is a good goalie for sure. But your title states "Best team undercap" - We are saying that he does not belong on the team that is called that. Neither does Dach.

Usually players on a team named as such would be people who are severly out performing their cap hit. Dach has not done that yet. Talbots cap hit is neutral in that regard.

Bunting has severely over performed his cap hit. (as are most of the other guys you listed on this team).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Logan_Ollivier</b></div><div>Lybushkin really wasn't that good though. He made a lot of blunders. But did hit a lot</div></div>

Every player makes a lot of mistakes. He wasn't any worse than some very good dmen. He was defensive, cleared the net, physical, was in position and provided a lot of safety on defense. He wasn't perfect but he did very well. The Leafs don't need any more super stars. They need complimentary pieces like a Lyubuskin. I see Mayfield being a better version of Lyubuskin. He would be a great add.

As for why New York does this trade... well they need offensive help and would still have a very good top 4 defence without Mayfield. Kerfoot would help out their forward group for sure. Why New York potentially wouldn't do this is because they really need star power on forward and have been trying to achieve that and have failed all summer. Kerfoot would be the "well we tried at least this helps out a little right?" option.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Warpbox</b></div><div>Switch Talbot with Knight and Dach with Bunting and you can now add Auston Matthews over Mangiapani or Ehlers</div></div>

I was looking at Talbot as an outlier as well. I agree with your assessment and Knight has a lot of promise but he has very little nhl experience still. I would be hard pressed to put someone with that little experience on the "Best Under Cap Team". Although I don't currently have another in mind at such a low cap hit!

Sujet: best team undercap

Not sure what Dach has done to prove he is worthy to be on this list with all these other players (yet). I would suggest Bunting instead of Dach and Maybe a Mayfield instead of Liljegren? (although getting Bunting vs Dach opens up 2.3m so maybe you can upgrade Lily to someone making more) - Just my 2 cents!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Logan_Ollivier</b></div><div>Is he though? Or is he outside of Trotz's system? He's not fleet of foot nor is he overly skilled. He's big and hits a lot but in a possession system does that really work?</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jake4leafs</b></div><div>Paired with Rielly it’s perfection. Keep it simple, play your position and don’t pinch. He’d fit in perfectly</div></div>

That's basically why they paired Lyubuskin with him for a bit last year. I was really hoping they could resign Lyubuskin. And the Leafs are still trying to get a Lyubuskin replacement. (Brodie is clearly better than Lyu but it made it so Brodie really strengthened the 2nd dpair).

Leafs have 4 extremly good dpairs in this AGM. Maybe it's over kill but injuries happen. They also have Mete and Benn as a 5th pair.
