<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LF98</b></div><div>Brodie has never been close to being bought out.. the idea of him being a buy-out candidate was a rumor, one that has absolutely no legs to stand on at that.

He puts up elite defensive results and simply might be the odd man out of Toronto based on how Treliving may want to re-work the defence. If you ask for retention on a great top-4 defensive defenceman from a team that will be very close to the cap ceiling, it will absolutely cost a 1st round pick.

1st and a 4th with the retention would be reasonable, I could see a 2nd alone without retention included.</div></div>

Personally I don’t ever see a route where the leafs trade him and retain salary. If he’s as elite as you say he is then he should stay with the team the entire season and then walk for free next year. His numbers are regressing significantly and his offensive scoring is basically zero, that being said if a team were to offer a 3rd and replacement/prospect for him I think the leafs take that deal any day of the week.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sk540</b></div><div>Your window to win a SC however, is right now, and adding a cheap 2.75mm AAV to the cap who was a point per game player last year, basically who just entered his prime, may be too good to pass up. It allows you to make your top 6 stronger, slot guys better throughout the lineup, and allows you the flexibility to do more. I bet we'd even take a cap dump for another high pick so you guys can sign Bouchard.

Never know.</div></div>

I 100% agree in your thought process, but I think the thinking is too short term. What happens if we don’t win the cup in the next 2 years? Then all of these guys that we traded our farm for become unaffordable, and we won’t have any young/cheap talent to replace them. Konecny isn’t someone you give up everything for, not even close. Players of that caliber (60 point guys) have gone for way less, look at toffoli

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sk540</b></div><div>It's not really an over pay because Broberg has lost his value as a 1st up to this point, like a new car driving off the lot. The book is still out on Borgeault, but there's nothing been too exciting for him yet. Any team would've traded Bourgeault for a 1st in any other draft if they were offered. And you also have to take into consideration that an EDM 1st is always gonna be in the mid to late 20's with how they are set up right now, all taking down the value a little from say, a San Jose or Chicago 1st round pick.

Factor in a 50% retention for 2 years for a top 6 point per game player entering his prime, and yes, this is right on the money with his value. If the Flyers would accept is the only question</div></div>

Broberg is extremely young, Bourgault has only played 1 year in the minors. I think people are being too hasty on trading our farm before anyone has even gotten a chance to develop. These guys still have at least 2 years of development before we can judge them, and trading them now while their value is so low is definitely not the way to go imo.
