<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafsfan16</b></div><div>I think Dal Colle can be usefull on the leafs.</div></div>

And I think Dermott would be useful on NYI. I'm not saying he's nearly as good as Devon Toews, but he can replace what we lost in him and be at minimum good depth, which we don't have. I want to be at least 9 NHL defensemen deep come playoff time. Right now our depth is the regular six, Aho/Hickey. Aho and Hickey haven't played in the NHL in years. MDC has looked really good this year but we need to upgrade on D.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>goowy</b></div><div>Although I think Dermott is a little over rated by the Leafs media, this trade works well for the Isles. Dermott has 3 or so years of team control, plus he adds depth to a D core that needs another guy that can actually play and develop some more. Dal Colle is actually a good bottom sixer who is physical, battles hard but with zero offensive upside (he has a hard shot but doesn't have the hockey IQ to create opportunities for him or his linemates).</div></div>

Only issue could be the expansion draft. I really want to lose salary in Expansion, whether that be Leddy, Bailey, or Varlamov. If we do this, we may leave Dermott unprotected, which means Seattle could take him. I'm still willing to take the risk, I'm just saying.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>goowy</b></div><div>As much as the Isles want to get rid of Komarov and his contract, this trade doesn't work for a couple reasons.

Trading essentially two first round picks for a Connor Murphy, a top 4 defenseman, does not make sense after they were forced to trade a solid, home grown top 4 defenseman in Devon Toews for two second round picks. Poor asset management.

I understand by including Komorav as a cap dump the price will go up, but this is too high.

The Isles are solid on the right side with Pulock and Dobson. I'm not sure adding another RD is the "shake up" they need. Mayfield has value in his role, #4 Dman, stay at home guy and solid PKer.</div></div>

It doesn't necessarily have to be Murhpy, or even a RHD. Ideally just thinking a cheap multi-year D is what this team is lacking. Losing both Toews and Boychuk is showing.

As said in the description, I used the Coleman trade as a sort of example, although I added a cap dump there.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jetman</b></div><div>Pionk hardly plays PP as he is on the 2nd unit...He may have 1 point on it. He plays all 3 zones, best, worst matchups whatever it takes. Maybe Dobson plays good but as of now, Poink would be better. I have said it many times, the only reason why the Jets fans want a Pulock or Hamilton type is size, at 6'0'' - 185 lbs, Pionk is small to play in the west playoffs</div></div>

I'm talking about last season, too small of a sample size to judge someones play this season. Last season 25 of pionk's points came on the powerplay. Pionk would not be a better option than Dobson right now, pionk is a turnover machine and would have to learn trotz system, which would take a while. The isles would have 0 interest in pionk, either perfetti or a deal around Connor/ehlers.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Anus_McLeod</b></div><div>Jost is more valuable than Cizikas (imo) due to age and team control. And they can't trade Graves while Toews and EJ are out. It's not there for me.

As mentioned, I'd be willing to work something out for Sorokin when the timing is better or if they'd take futures but it doesn't work at the moment. Goalie isn't a huge need though (other than maybe a cheap backup), so I'm not gonna hurt a team with a legit shot this year for a goalie that will be good in a couple years.</div></div>

I'm totally with you on the Jost's value being similar to Cizikas, and I also agree that it's risky to trade a Dman now given injuries. It's not a wrong approach to be patient.

That said, thinking long term this could be a move that shores up our goaltending for years to come. In the short term Cizikas would replace Jost, even being an upgrade, and beyond this season we have O'Connor, Bowers, and Kaut for 4th line roles to replace Jost. The biggest issue is losing a Dman obviously, but we could probably afford to ride out a few days/weeks until Toews is back. A D group of Byram-Makar-Girard-Toews-Johnson is more than fine, and Graves can be replaced in a separate trade at the deadline.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Richard88</b></div><div>How could Colorado do anything but accept this? It's like the Varlamov trade but instaed of giving up the 11th overall pick we'd only be giving up a 4th liner and a 5/6 Dman for a future starting goalie, AND we'd be getting one of the leagues best defensive C's to fill the 3C spot and create an elite shutdown line with Nichuskin+1. No brainer for Colorado. I'd even throw in an extra pick or prospect to get 'er done.

Fwiw I think Jost would be excellent in Trotz's NYI team. His defensive instincts are top notch.</div></div>

Jost is more valuable than Cizikas (imo) due to age and team control. And they can't trade Graves while Toews and EJ are out. It's not there for me.
