Sujet: Leafs Preds and Kings blockbuster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HollywoodHudon</b></div><div>Nylander is a luxury at this point in the Leaf's attempts to win a cup. He will be looking for $10m per year or more on his next deal - Leafs would be better off having Josi, a perennial all-star D man at $9m than a luxury $10m+ winger. Signing older UFAs like Kane/Tarasenko/Bertuzzi for $6m or less short term to replace Nylander is much more palatable for the Leaf's cap, and having that veteran leadership can certainly be a good mix with the young players like Knies/Minten/Voit and/or Byfield/Vilardi if acquired.</div></div>
First, literally ZERO chance Leafs move Nylander. Second - no team is going to give up a top 5 league wide dman in his prime for Willy one year from FA. Come on, SMH.
And can’t see the Kings moving their future #1centre; like seriously?!
And then to put a cherry on this pile - you traded Brodie for picks.
Outrageous

Sujet: upgrade that Defence
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>So remind me why the leafs, who are great defensivly and their biggest weakness is depth scoring are not only trading their best value scorer for <strong>an over priced, not very good any more defender </strong>on a contract that will only get worse and then adding a pick?
There is so little logic to this trade you might as well throw in the deed to the cn tower</div></div>

Maaaan, so close. I was all ready to give this an enthusiastic like until... you guys need to realize that something does not become a fact just because you repeat it over and over again. Parayko is not overpriced, and saying he's not any good is just an admission you don't watch him play. Just wildly exaggerated if not downright false on both counts.

Sujet: what do they need
Agree - bottom 6 forward for this playoff run. Potential targets: Acciari, Tierney, Bjustad, Sturm, and Blackwell.

Parayko would be a nice get, but it would mean giving up Carlo (getting Older at D) and being tighter to the cap. I don't think its necessary.

Trade Reilly to clear cap space in the offseason and let Smith walk.

Extend:
- Bergy (Bring him back next year on a similar contract; low cap hit with bonuses up to $5M in total value)
- Pasta (Give him whatever he wants at this point - anything less than $11M will be a discount).
- Clifton (Give him a deal around $3M AAV)
- Frederic (Bridge deal at around $2M AAV)
- Zacha (4 years at $4M AAV)
- QOs for McLauglin, Lauko, Swayman, and pretty much all of our other RFAs with any value

Projected Lines Next Year:
Marchand-Bergy-Debrusk
Hall-Zacha-Pasta
Frederic-Coyle-Lysell
Lauko-McLaughlin-Beecher

Grz-McAvoy
Lindholm-Carlo
Forbort-Clifton

Tough decision might be coming though with Grz... he could become a cap casualty. I think Clifton has been better than Grz this season and would rather extend him.

Sujet: Erik Karlsson
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Isles10</b></div><div>Yeah but he's got 5yrs left on a contract that was until 1/4 of this season regarded as completely untradeable - Firkus is a good prospect and 3 picks for a rebuilding team are great. And what's the point of having an elite defenseman for maybe all of this year and maybe next year on this particular team... makes no sense. The sharks would be better off trading him this season before they once again are 'stuck' with an untradeable contract at 11.5 M for 3-4 years.</div></div>

I think a first would be necessary to acquire a norris caliber defenseman, + with the cap starting to rise again the contract is going to look better and better. It is also reasonable to assume on a better team Karlsson would be even better than on a team with 3 real forwards. Add in the fact that donskoi &amp; dreiger are basically cap dumps and a first would be a minimum. Firkus is a real nice prospect tho
