Sujet: Ideal Offseason Option 2
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Arlotti47</b></div><div>What would you suppose then</div></div>

Not trading away our #1D for a non-elite winger + scraps and one of the few experienced veterans we have for a less-accomplished, older player on a worse contract. I mean, people complain about Henrique's contract, but Zucc's is god damn awful.

If we get Byfield, expect one of Steel or Lundestrom to move to wing (I'd prefer Steel on the wing). Keep the D as is unless a trade for a legit top pairing D prospect become available at a reasonable price. IMO, we aren't going to get out this situation with trades. We're going to have address our needs through the draft. It is just a shame that its a poor year for D-men. Would love to knab a standout prospect with elite #1D potential this year, but I don't think Drysdale is of that calibre.

Sujet: If the Leafs go out in the first round again
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boomer125</b></div><div>I don't see how he's acting like TO is the only team to face tough competition in the 1st round, I think he's merely pointing out that the teams they have lost to went on to win or the final (valid points) and the Leafs took those teams to the edge of losing in that 1st round. Let's not act like the pens playing the Islanders in the first round is a tougher or equally tough as facing the Caps or Bruins</div></div>

Lmao why are you even bringing up the penguins? Makes absolutely zero sense. But since you did, they also faced Washington how many times? A team that was a powerhouse and should have won the cup more than just once. And who beat them? Exactly. Thanks for helping my point of every team faces top tier teams in the playoffs

Pass on all of these.

Ritchie, whilst not what you hope for in a 10th OA pick, brings some much needed size and hitting to the line-up. He's also the only big-body we have suitable for sitting in front of the opposing teams netminder during the PP. He also brings a lot of intangibles to the team. He's movable, but not for Bowey Madison... not even close.

Shore could get more.

Need the veteran leadership that Henrique brings more than a bunch of high risk assets. The idea that we should trade all our older players for prospects and picks is just wrong. That's how you end up like BUF, unable to win. Henrique is one of the few players we have that has been to the SCFs. That knowledge and experience of knowing what it takes to win is vital if we're to turn things around.

We don't need another LW, we need help at RD.

Ducks pass, Mid six winger, an LD (we have an abundance of) and a prospect that will never be in the NHL with a third 2 years from now doesnt even move the needle for Manson

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MG1986</b></div><div>Truth of the matter is, whether Anaheim fans believe it or not, Josh Manson is NOT worth Johnsson AND Dermott, nevermind that extra stuff. These are 2 young NHL roster players, great speed from both, and both have displayed plenty of top-6 and top-4 potential, respectively. Josh Manson fits the Leafs well for obvious reasons, but he's not and will never be a top pairing guy, and I think people fail to understand that just because you'd slot Manson with Rielly, that doesn't make him more than what he actually is. So, even if the Leafs have to overpay for Manson. Johnsson and Dermott together in a deal for only Manson back, would be a pretty significant stretch. Never mind the fact that the Leafs probably could get better value for those players elsewhere.</div></div>

AJ is a mid six winger not anything more, we have no need for Dermott we are more than set at LD

This deal doesn't move the needle at all for the Ducks, both teams needs matter not just the leafs contrary to popular belief on this site
