Sujet: Minor Movement for Manson
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bcarlo25</b></div><div>Oh don’t you dare even bring pesce into this. Leave Carolina alone.

Be honest with yourself. If Dermott had tons of upside, you probably wouldn’t want to trade him. Manson could be had, but the leafs would have to give up something they don’t want to. Think of it this way, if you don’t want him, other teams probably don’t either.</div></div>

I said specifically that the Leafs don't want to trade him. The issue is that the leafs need a guy with similar qualities but more experience. It's possible Dermott turns into the guy they need, but it means waiting a few years, and by then maybe it's too late for your core. If the right RD is available, I'm not opposed to trading Lilj instead - again, it's about timing.

Also, why the hell would't Carolina consider trading a D? It gets brought up a lot because it's an obvious trade partner. They have D. They want more scoring (...and goaltending).

Sujet: Manson your thoughts
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Anaheim needs right-side defenders, whether right-handed or not. (We'd be fine with Alec Martinez, Jonas Brodin or Marcus Nutivaara, for example.) Now that we've traded Korbinian Holzer, the only right-handed defensemen in the entire organization (including farm) signed for next year are Josh Manson, Eric Gudbranson and the newly-acquired Axel Andersson. (On our Reserve List is Hunter Drew.) Here's our depth chart:

C: Getzlaf, Henrique, Steel, Lundestrom*, Zegras**, Groulx*, Morand* (* = non-roster; ** = unsigned)
LW: Heinen, Jones, Milano, Comtois*, Des Lauriers, Tracey*, McLaughlin**
RW: Rakell (also plays LW), Silfverberg, Terry, Sherwood
LD: Fowler, Lindholm, Larsson, Guhle, Mahura*, LaCombe**
RD: Manson, Gudbranson, Andersson*
G: Gibson, Dostal*

As you can see, there's plenty of depth at forward and left defense, and we have one of the five best goalies in the League. The glaring deficiency is at RD.</div></div>

Fair enough. Thanks for the insight. Manson is obviously an attractive target but unless ANA are burning it to the ground, it doesn't make any sense to frame a trade between two teams with the same needs (RD).
