<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac555</b></div><div>You’re speculating not reading or listening to the true quotes. The ‘insiders’ are connecting dots based on perceived supply/demand and conversations and scouting that took place months ago dating back to the Nylander negotiation.

Just because one of these guys say ‘if I were Carolina/Toronto I would be looking at this...’ isn’t a rumor.

Carolina in talks with Faulk on an extension. Tells me they aren’t interested in moving their RHDs now.</div></div>

"LeBrun: So, this is not a Marleau conversation, this is a Zaitsev conversation. You know, if they package Zaitsev to Carolina along with Johnsson or Kapanen, and does that get you Pesce or Faulk or Dougie Hamilton? I mean, I think that’s … I would monitor that one because I think it’s something that the Hurricanes might be willing to do at some point."

"They’re very likely going to move pending UFA winger Micheal Ferland and they’re still listening to offers on some of their defencemen. They’re willing to move one of their top-four guys — teams are calling about Dougie Hamilton and Brett Pesce — in exchange for a top-six forward with offensive skill. "

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jluqueSF</b></div><div>I have been saying for 3 weeks the Leafs will need to come to them with 3+ years and $4.2275M AAV's; this will then force any team to spend a 1st + 3rd if they dare offer sheet; anything less is just a 2nd rd pick

Same with Marner, needs to be 10.568M+ for the 4 1st rd picks</div></div>

The offer sheet is nothing more than media hysteria to generate traffic. We have seen general managers are unwilling to use it because you end up spending assets to overpay a player, and it only leads to retaliation. Furthermore, the leafs being the richest franchise are the <strong>last</strong> team in the entire league a gm would like to get into this fight with. “If a team wants to go down that path with us, that’s the way it goes, but our goal will be to continue to work with these players.”

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PJosephM13</b></div><div>No to the UFA’s, add a pick to the ducks trade? Canes are more likely Hamilton, Pesce is worth too much to them. There are better trades you can make with Brown. The Petan trade is okay. Don’t sign Hainsey.</div></div>

You are right about the Marleau trade, i should add a pick. What pick do you think is suitable?

I'm trying to implement information provided from "reliable" insiders into the team to the best that I can.
- Hainsey signing was premised under reports by Mckenzie that it was likely.
- Targeting Pesce was premised on Lebrun's comments of all three available for a package of Kapanen &amp; Zaitsev.

I think targeting Hagelin would be a good idea because he brings a similar skill set as Hyman. Since Babcock is our coach, it seems only fair to provide him with the tools he needs to run his system.

I also think Girgensons is criminally underrated around here, and brings everything you want in a 4th line centre. He's also young enough theres 3rd line upside. Maybe we can get a late pick added if we are trading brown, but brown is worth a 3rd to begin with so its really not far off.
