Anaheim Ducks Rumours

26 Mar 2024 22:13:47
Anaheim:
W. Nylander RW
N. Robetson RW


Toronto:
L. Carlsson C
T. Zegras RW

27 Mar 2024 10:10:34
I can't see Anaheim giving up on Zegras. and to take Nylander may create havoc on their salary. cap structure evrn though they could probably afford him.

27 Mar 2024 15:56:19
Pretty positive the Ducks want to unload Zegras. He was available at the deadline and likely will be this offseason as well. Nylanders's contract would screw the Ducks in the long run when Carlsson, McTavish, Terry, etc. need new deals.

28 Mar 2024 13:00:44
Zegras might be on the trade block this summer considering the Ducks have an abundance of young talent at forward even without him.

But Ducks fans would riot if Verbeek traded 2 futures for Nylander and Robertson.

Also Nylander has a no movement clause in his new contract and likely wouldn't waive it to be traded to Anaheim.

31 Mar 2024 22:44:33
look at zegras to be traded to nashville. hes what they are looking for offensively.

03 Mar 2024 16:14:59
Anaheim Trades
Vatrano*

Toronto Trades
McMann
NRobertson
1st Round Pick 2024
3rd Round Pick 2024

*Ducks retain 50% of Vatrano's remaining contract.


Imo makes sense for both Teams.


Thoughts ?

03 Mar 2024 17:36:37
That’s a fairly nice package but Vatrano is on pace for 40 goals on a bad team. Two playoff runs under a 2M cap hit is gonna cost a lot. Maybe if the third had a condition to turn into a 2nd/ 1st based on playoff success?

03 Mar 2024 22:03:59
Ebsolutely
Vatrano about to turn 30 years old in a few weeks having the best season of his career, imo getting a young winger in NRobertson plus a 1st and a 3rd for a rebuilding team is pretty fair for The Ducks.
McMann is on an expiring contract and a UFA after this season and I bet he signs back with The Leafs so he is more for roster size for Toronto and for Anaheim just for this season.
I think this would be a great trade for both Teams imo.

04 Mar 2024 14:43:12
Toronto is really lacking forwards.

04 Mar 2024 21:24:41
Don’t really think his age is relevant, it’s still 2 years of him in his prime. I agree I think this is a big package for him I just thought considering the season he’s having, the cap hit/ term that the 3rd could be conditional. Keep McMann.

05 Mar 2024 16:12:28
NYR likely makes an aggressive offer for Vatrano that I don't think we'd be able to compete with.

27 Feb 2024 16:03:37
Montreal trade with nj devils
Mtl:Allen
To
Devils: holtz
Montréal trade with la
Mtl:Savard
To
La:Turcotte and 2nd round
Mtl trade with Florida
Mtl :Dvorak and 2nd round
To
Fla: knight
Mtl trade with Anaheim
Mtl: Harris, Barron ,Winnipeg 1st , mtl 2nd round
To
Ducks: zegras

27 Feb 2024 18:11:25
- NJ trade is fair.

- LA trade is close, but I think Savard will bring a 1st + at the deadline.

- The FLA trade doesn't seem like a fit where Dvorak is done for the season. Perhaps it gets revisited as an off-season deal, but personally, as talented as Knight is, his addiction issues are a big red flag for me.

- The ANA trade is fair, but personally I don't like one-dimensional players like Zegras. He's like a Johnny Gaudreau in too many ways, and just doesn't seem like the kind of guy you go to battle with.

27 Feb 2024 18:27:27
Allen not an improvement for devils. LA has log jam on defence already, not sure they want Savard. Why knight? Seems to much for Zegras. So I’m guessing no on all. ?.

27 Feb 2024 23:04:52
Allen is a 33 year old backup goalie

28 Feb 2024 01:15:23
Log jam on d in la , who? Besides doughty? Savard is an upgrade
Devils: all 3 of their goalies are below 900 save% and are over 3.2 goals per game , Allen has similar number albeit on a bottom 5 nhl team , so imo Allen is an upgrade
Knight might be worth the gamble
And mtl ain’t getting Zegras for much less if not more

28 Feb 2024 04:05:11
Spence and Clarke are 2 good young RHD but their LHD deepth is another thing.

28 Feb 2024 17:15:17
Good points on Allen sidekick. I see him as a 1B that could come to a team without spooking a starter. (Goalies always have a more delicate psyche. to say the least. ) Allen is a good, short-term solution for someone. He's playing on a lousy team and his numbers reflect that.

27 Feb 2024 14:18:34
TRADE #1:

EDM Trades:

- Gagner
- 5th (2025)

MTL:

- Future Considerations


TRADE #2:

ANA Trades:

- Henrique (50% retention)

EDM TRADES:

- Holloway
- 2nd ('24)
- 3rd ('24)



- EDM trades Gagner's expiring deal to MTL to free up a little cap space.

- MTL gets a 5th for accommodating EDM.

- ANA gets 2 pieces for pending RFA Henrique, plus a 3rd for retention.

- EDM gets their third line center & depth in the bottom 6.

27 Feb 2024 16:51:49
@Chickenfoot think you meant UFA for Henrique. Regardless though I think the value is there to land Henrique. What an add that would be for the Oilers too. Holloway doesn't seem to be a part of the Oilers future and if they can add a guy like Henrique for the playoffs I think they will be better for it.

27 Feb 2024 21:05:45
Holloway will be apart of the Oilers future unless he’s traded for a big piece. The 2nd and 3rd might be enough for Henrique. I think he’s a good target for the Oil.

27 Feb 2024 21:26:29
MG: you are right that I was wrong?

I’m not a big fan of the Oilers’ more notable prospects, but a change of scenery going to a less competitive team can be a boost for some. I would be curious to see him get a shot in ANA, and who doesn’t like some California sun this time of year!

28 Feb 2024 01:02:31
@Ebsolutely you are overvaluing Holloway big time. A great comparison value wise for him is Nic Robertson. Many people, myself included, don't see Robertson as a trade piece that moves the needle much at all for a big piece. And yet he has more goals, assists, and points than Holloway career wise all while playing less games.

28 Feb 2024 18:23:33
I didn’t even really put a value on Holloway, I could just see a 2nd and 3rd being enough for Henrique. Holloway plays a big fast game that translates easily to a bottom 6 player, but he still has potential to be a top 6 guy. I think Holloway moves the needle quite a bit in a trade today, if he doesn’t prove much by next year then I’ll agree his value will dip a lot.

22 Feb 2024 02:53:46
Mtl- Savard half retain- 3rd pick 2024

Dal- bourque- 1st pick 2024

At the draft

Mtl- gallagher-1st pick wpg 2024-1st pick dal 2024

Too San Jose, Anaheim or Chicago

For future consideration

Then offer guentzel
5 year 50 M

22 Feb 2024 04:12:15
I actually like the Bourque trade a lot, I don’t think it’s too far off tbh. I don’t think they should dump Gallagher tho, he’s an important leader on that team. Maybe they should use those assets in a package for Zegras if he’s available.

22 Feb 2024 13:09:01
- Good one BFG - I think you're bang on with your asset valuations.

- Two 1sts to get rid of Gally's 3 years @ 6.5M is fair, but crippling, when considering the opportunity cost of what those two 1st round picks could be used for in a trade "for" something.

- Gally has been a good soldier for the Habs, and I think they'll do right by him. Perhaps he wants to go somewhere I think they'll make it happen, such as going home to EDM or something like that.

- For example, if the Gally wanted to go to EDM this summer, maybe they could trade his 3 x 6.5M for Campbell's 3 x 5M, and retain whatever some $ to make it work for EDM. (It would be wrong to bury Gally in the minors, but the Habs don't have anything invested in Campbell. The Habs could retain to make the dollars work and make sure Gally was left to finish his career honourably. He's earned that. )

- A buyout would take 6 looooong years at -333K, 2.1M, 4.6M, 2.1M, 2.1M, & 2.1M. I suspect Gally & the Habs will work out something honourable to allow them both to move on the right way.

22 Feb 2024 13:18:58
I wouldn't do the Guentzel signing though, and I'm not sure Zegras is the right trade target.

I know high end talent is hard to find, but his defensive play makes his net offense contribution far less meaningful. Some scorers get it, and some don't. He's a human highlight reel, but I'm not sure he's the kind of guy that helps win a championship. He feels more like a Johnny Gaudreau.

22 Feb 2024 13:20:03
That would be a great add for the Habs! Value wise I think it's there, my only thing is would Dallas want to part with him. Pavelski, Benn, and Seguin are not getting younger and eventually they will need to be replaced. There's free agency or there's the homegrown route. Do they move a player they've developed into a very promising player or move on from him. I don't know what the answer is to that, but the addition of Savard would sure up their defense even more for a playoff run.

23 Feb 2024 01:20:45
@Chickenfoot that Gaudreau comparison seems really accurate actually lol

23 Feb 2024 04:34:20
I see this

Habs lose Gallagher, Monahan Savard

Gain Bourque and guentzel

(Still have the first cgy pick for Monahan)

Salary wise it balanced and I rather have guentzel over zegras, more complete 2 way player, and playoff experience. 10 M maybe a little overpay but it's mtl. Taxes, media, you have to op a little.

16 Feb 2024 21:50:17
Anaheim Trades
Lybushkin*
2nd Round Pick 2024 (Boston's Pick)

Toronto Trades
Liljegren
5th Round Pick 2024 (Chicago's Pick)

*Anaheim retains 50% of Lybuskin's expiring contract.


Leafs get a known Defenceman in Lybushkin who was with Toronto a few seasons ago and he will give them some thump on the backend, getting a 2nd Rounder is a must giving up Liljegren in this proposal.

Ducks all in for a rebuild so this makes sense for what they need to do for the future, trading off a player who probably won't resign and replace him with a younger Defender with upside and controlling contract as an upcoming RFA not a UFA.



Thoughts ?

17 Feb 2024 14:36:03
I think Toronto addes or higher draft pick. not equal value.

17 Feb 2024 15:13:24
balsam8
Lybushkin was traded from Buffalo to Anaheim for a 5th Round Pick, in the end Anaheim gets Liljegren for a 2nd and 5th Rounder that's about right imo.

17 Feb 2024 15:49:37
- Boosh will be a nice depth addition for a team, especially on an expiring deal.

- Lilly is way overvalued in this transaction, and where’s the compensation for ANA retaining?

19 Feb 2024 11:46:06
Who is Timothy Lillejgren?

08 Feb 2024 23:12:38
Anaheim Trades
Lybushkin*

Vancouver Trades
Podkolzin (AHL)


*Ducks retain 50% of Lybushkin's expiring contract.


Canucks get that RHanded Shooting Defenceman and paired with Zadorov would be one the hardest hitting pairing Defence in the entire NHL.

Ducks win in this trade for their situation picking up a former 10th overall winger in Podkolzin that still has tremendous skill, and that is young enough to take a chance on for a rebuilding team.



Thoughts ?

09 Feb 2024 06:15:30
Solid trade actually

10 Feb 2024 13:34:56
its a bit too much. podz is a top 10 pick, still very young. boosh is an aging veteran on an expiring contract. ana would have to send back another decent pick as the difference.

10 Feb 2024 23:53:44
Podz for Lybushkin would be great trade for both teams a young power foward for a soiled RHD this could workout well for both.
Gives Podz a fresh start and vancouver the rhd they need.

11 Feb 2024 18:12:15
Bush isn’t a RHD he is a LHD that plays on the right side.

05 Feb 2024 18:48:52
Couple Hawks trade ideas.

CHI: Connor Murphy (50% Retained), VAN 2024 2nd
TOR: TOR 2024 1st, Noah Chadwick

CHI: Tyler Johnson (50% Retained), TOR 2026 2nd, OTT 2024 3rd
NYR: Kaapo Kakko, Zac Jones

CHI: Lukas Reichel, TBL 2024 1st
ANA: Trevor Zegras

CHI: Boris Katchouk
Any Contender: 5th

06 Feb 2024 22:21:17
Not sure teams will give out more value like a first for 2nd and 3rds. Like for your first trade, I think toronto is more likely to give a 2nd or a 3rd + for Murphy instead of giving a 1st and getting back a 2nd

08 Feb 2024 13:24:27
I think the first and second trades are close imo but that Zegras one is really bad. I don’t know too much about Katchouk so idk about the last one.

31 Jan 2024 16:16:30
Edmonton.- Campbell,1ST& 2nd in 2024


Anaheim. - 2b defensive prospect in return.

Edmonton.- Edm. 6th & Preds 6th

Minnesota - Maroon & Bogosian

Montreal - Monahan

Edmonton - Lavoie & 5th 2024

11 Jan 2024 23:49:55
Anaheim : Zegras
MTL : 2024 1st*, Mesar, Harris, 2025 2nd round pick

*Pick top-10 protected, reverts to 2025 pick if top-10 or higher.

Zegras' age fits MTL's rebuilding timeline and gets to play with his good buddy Caufield.

With Gauthier eventually joining the team and with Carlsson and MacTavish down the middle, it looks like Zegras might be on his way out . Anaheim gets more early round picks for their rebuild, a good forward prospect in Mesar and a decent young defenseman in Harris who can play both sides and can slot in their lineup instantly

12 Jan 2024 02:15:05
A protected first as the main piece isn't getting Zegras.

12 Jan 2024 02:30:24
Zegras is fancy, makes a really nice Michigan goal here and there, but I don't see him being worth all that. I'm sure lots will disagree with me, but he's not a great all around player. No thanks.

12 Jan 2024 19:47:20
No way. Agree with previous post. Return for Zegras is too high. Mesar is a childhood buddy of Slavkosky’s in Slovakia, drafted in 1st round with him, + did great in WJHC so he’s not going anywhere. ZEGRAS IS ONE DIMENSION & sound like a prima donna. Hard pass.

13 Jan 2024 02:08:10
DeBrincat got number 7, 39 and a 3rd. In this deal it would probably end up being Montreals 2025 1st (probably top 10), pick around 40, a recent 1st rounder.

13 Jan 2024 22:43:11
@Ebsolutely, I don't think the habs end up bottom 10 next year. I see them selecting mid round, right outside of the playoffs. Their team is full of young promising players that will only get better with more games under their belt

14 Jan 2024 15:14:53
I just watched them play the Oil and they played a good game I just don’t think they have the lineup to be that good next year. 4-12 I think is where they’ll finish. I think they can over achieve and just miss playoffs but it’s more likely they’ll finish top 12.

14 Jan 2024 16:03:18
Zegras is potentially the guy with most controversy surrounding his value. Some say top 25-50 player with top 25 potential, others say bust and injury prone.

10 Jan 2024 22:06:55
New York Rangers - Braden Schneider, Kaapo Kakko and 2024 2nd
Anaheim Ducks - Trevor Zegras


Artemi Panarin - Mika Zibanejad - Alexis Lafreniere
Chris Kreider - Trevor Zegras - Vincent Trocheck
Will Cuylle - Filip Chytil - Blake Wheeler
Jimmy Vesey - Nick Bonino - Barclay Goodrow

Ryan Lindgren - Adam Fox
K'Andre Miller - Jacob Trouba
Erik Gustafsson - Zachary Jones



Alex Killorn - Mason McTavish - Troy Terry
Frank Vatrano - Leo Carlsson - Kaapo Kakko
Max Jones - Isac Lundestrom - Ryan Strome
Ross Johnston - Sam Carrick - Jakob Silfverberg

Cam Fowler - Radko Gudas
Pavel Mintyukov - Braden Schneider
Urho Vaakanainen - Ilya Lybushkin

11 Jan 2024 18:05:57
A young potential top 4 D, young high potential but struggling F, a high ish draft pick. I like it!

14 Oct 2023 16:02:22
Ducks:
W. Nylander RW
N. Robertson RW
3rd 2026

Leafs:
A. Henrique C
M. McTavish RW
1st 2026

14 Oct 2023 20:00:04
Only way Leafs get that is if Nylander signs longterm prior to trade.

But I do believe if Nylander gets traded we target a big strong dman in return.

19 Oct 2023 02:04:15
Teams rebuilding don't usually want to sign a guy to a 7-8 year contract. Plus laying a guy to sometimes play is an issue.

01 Oct 2023 00:18:01
3way Trade


Ott- 3rd pick mtl 2024

Habs- Joseph


Chi-

Gallagher-ott 1st 2024-mtl 1st 2025
Barron- ylonen

Anaheim or Philly maybe?

Ottawa clears 3m for pinto
Cost them to swap a late first for a early 3rd

Mtl-take Joseph contract, 1st mid pick in 2025 3 Rd pick 2024 and Habs still have cgy one, and give two b minus prospect because have too much contract

Chicago?Anaheim? Philly maybe?

01 Oct 2023 17:40:18
seems to be alot for Joseph. one veteran, two younger and a first round?

03 Oct 2023 17:22:16
If I'm reading this correctly it seems like MTL is trading some major assets for Joseph, so it's a quick no from MTL.

Joseph is as unspectacular as it gets, so beyond OTT's need to clear him from the books, I'm not sure why MTL would give up so many assets to help OTT get cap relief?

03 Oct 2023 22:31:34
Ottawa isn't exchanging a 1st and Joseph for a 3rd and nothing. might as well make the trade pinto and joseph for the 3rd.

28 Sep 2023 15:00:05
Anaheim Trades
Lyubushkin

Toronto Trades
Brodie
Liljegren

So in my proposal I am trading 2 upcoming players on expiring contracts Lyubushkin and Brodie plus adding an young NHL defenceman not a prospect to a rebuilding team with a ton of cap space.
So I await esponses of how Anaheim would never do this etc.
Ducks win in this proposal for who they are trading and getting, Toronto wins getting much needed cap space.


Thoughts ?

28 Sep 2023 21:15:00
the only way I see this happening is if Anaheim throws in a draft pick. T. O. still has hope for Liljegren and probably worth more than just being a throw in.

30 Sep 2023 15:09:27
Ok Anaheim throws in a 2nd Round Pick in next years draft balsam8.
Is it a deal iyo?

30 Sep 2023 23:40:34
Stop trying to trade Brodie no one that’s a leaf’s fan wants him gone besides you.

01 Oct 2023 15:56:51
vbbbvvbb
Do you not understand how The Leafs are over The Cap and they need to shed salary?
I do like Brodie but his 5 million Cap Hit has to go so Toronto has room to possibly add in this case Lyubushkin and maybe sign Patrick Kane, you seem like the only one that doesn't understand how The Cap works.

01 Oct 2023 20:59:59
I understand where you are coming from vbbbvbb. but trades seem to be more about getting under the cap instead of considering who you are losing. it makes sense to move $5M. I do agree it would be a loss. only other way they can possibly get under the cap is if they move another player to Robidas island based on an "injury"

05 Oct 2023 21:42:06
Well once the leafs make it to game one of the regular season cap compliant I’ll laugh at you all.

23 Sep 2023 02:12:58
ANA trades Trevor Zegras

OTT trades Josh Norris

Ottawa creates a little cap space and keep Pinto in the process. Zegras doesn't seem happy with contract talk in Anaheim. Lots of upside to his game. think both teams get what they need.

23 Sep 2023 16:37:29
Value would be not far off but Norris barely played last year due to injuries. He’s a risk for now, especially at his cap hit

23 Sep 2023 17:01:55
Ottawa says no.

23 Sep 2023 17:52:18
Anahiem doesn’t touch this. Norris injury is just way to concerning.

22 Sep 2023 14:13:16
ANA - Zegras (negotiating rights)
MTL - 2025 1st (CGY), 2024 2nd (COL), 2025 2nd, Farrell, Armia (Cap dump)

With McTavish and Carlsson down the middle, Anaheim has options, since negotiations aren't going too well for Zegras' new contract. They gain multiple picks and a solid LW prospect with good offensive upside. Almost all positions are set in their prospect pool, to the exception of winger position, which this trade improves. Armia is added as cap dump for negotiation leverage with Zegras.

MTL gets a young, solid offensive center that could play with Caufield, his best buddy.

22 Sep 2023 18:43:31
As with any trade of a player of Zegras' quality, it will cost you at least one asset you don't want to give up. One magic bean and a few inconsequential picks and/ or prospects and an uncompensated cap dump won't be considered.

22 Sep 2023 20:01:49
Be prepared to give up Reinbacher if you want Zegras lol trading Zegras would set the Ducks back so far. Quality > Quantity

22 Sep 2023 22:11:11
I don't even think Anaheim want Reinbacher. They already have Drysdale, Mintyukov, Zellweger, Luneau, Warren as promising young dmen. Picks give them more flexibility

23 Sep 2023 00:33:47
I wouldn't give up zegras for that. Probably mid first, always a maybe, 2 2nds, one Probably very late, another maybe prospect that was a 4th round pick. And expect them to take a cap dump. Future perennial allstar for a bunch of maybes. No thank you.

25 Sep 2023 15:14:51
I don't see this happening . I like Zegras, but you have to weigh out moving alot of pieces for 1 player. then if he wants $$$$$, you can upset the structure of your salary on the team. plus we all know what happens when you pay too many guys too much money.

22 Aug 2023 06:51:26
It’s actually not bad imo

23 Aug 2023 18:31:03
The leafs miss playoffs if they make this trade. Despite what people on here think Brodie bring more to the leafs then Mathews and Marner he is the last player they move and will be there number 1 priority to resign. Anyone who has played hockey understands the importance of a dman that can basically play the whole game and shut down teams offence.

23 Aug 2023 20:23:21
Are you serious vb? I like Brodie, and I don't agree with all the people who say he is useless, but he is nothing more than a 3/ 4 man. He is NOT the the most valuable Leaf, and it's not close.

24 Aug 2023 14:28:49
vbbbvvbb
It's not Brodie's production that's the issue, it's his 5 million Cap hit that's the problem.
That's why Brodie will be the one going imo.

24 Aug 2023 16:17:05
He won’t be because he is the only good defensive dman in the nhl.

25 Aug 2023 01:03:52
I meant on the leafs.

28 Aug 2023 10:23:15
I'm gonna go with brodie is a good defenseman. His price is why he's talked-about trade. He's under appreciated because price. He'll definitely be traded. Nate Robertson is basically a throw in at this point.

29 Aug 2023 18:50:45
I tend to agree with Shoots & Pinball.

Sometimes players just aren't worth their cap hits anymore, such as the recent example of Petry. It doesn't mean they're without value, it just means their cap hit exceeds their as-is value.

If Brodie was traded, with proper retention he can produce commensurate results for who and what he is now. He's certainly not the only player in that situation. It just happens as the years tick by.

Toronto Trades

WNylander
Liljegren
5th Round Pick 2024


This trade proposal would probably be one of the biggest in NHL history, but it instantly puts Anaheim at a different level adding these 3 players.

Treliving wants to change things up as well as retool on the fly and still keeping The Leafs competitive this would do that.

Yes this would probably never happen but what an offseason trade to be remembered if it ever did happen.


Thoughts ?

04 Aug 2023 18:39:58
Makes a lot of sense for Toronto., not so much for Anaheim. If Anaheim traded for those 2, it would be because they think they are close to a cup without the massive haul in return. Anaheim would be a perennial bottom feeder forever because all they would have is 2 really high paid players with no help.

04 Aug 2023 19:57:29
Shootsmcgee
Zegras, Killorn plus a solid Bottom 6. Defense would have to improve a bit more but Gibson in front of a better team is still a top 10 goaltender imo.
They still have good drafted prospects, plus The NHL is also a business think endorsement money they would get having Matthews on the team.
A Matthews like McDavid or Crosby don't come around to often it would be a good trade for them.

04 Aug 2023 22:35:49
Gibson had some of the worst numbers in the league since like 2017 he’s not good.

05 Aug 2023 11:10:31
I'm not really sure that those 2 put you closer to a couple they haven't had much success he'd been getting deep in the playoffs.

05 Aug 2023 12:39:00
Id say nylander for Carlsson and a 2nd is close, McTavish, terry and a 1st for Mathews is close, still leaves vaakenain and a 1st for liljegren and a 5th. All these separate, I could see except the insane last one.

05 Aug 2023 13:25:18
Also, pinball, let's be clear, Mathews isn't close to mcdavid, nor anyone else on the planet at this point. An aging old Crosby, yes.

Nobody is close to McDavid, but Matthews is still an elite Centre and they don't come around very often.

I am going to post an outgoing and incoming to combine 2 trade proposals.

Outgoing from The Leafs
Brodie (Columbus)
Liljegren (Anaheim)
MMurray (Anaheim)
Hildeby(SHL) (Columbus)
5th Round Pick 2024 (Anaheim)

Incoming to The Leafs
Vaakanainen (Anaheim)
Peeke (Columbus)

Leafs would not have to make any more moves and be under The Cap once Muzzin goes on LTIR after these 2 proposals.


Thoughts ?

Absolute garbage. The only person who thinks Murray has any trade value is you.

Most assume the only way to get rid of Murray is a buyout, or trading a major sweetener to get Murray off the books.

This is pure delusional nonsense Pinball. Stop wasting everyone’s time.

26 Jul 2023 17:27:32
Clearly Murray will go on LTIR I’m not sure how people are so dense. The leafs wouldn’t put themselves that far over the cap without a plan.

26 Jul 2023 17:32:36
Another two heavily favored trade proposals for the Leafs, no matter how you try to spin them.

26 Jul 2023 17:42:36
MMurray will be put onto LTIR, that was made official today.
So with that being said Toronto could just swap straight up Liljegren for Vaakanainen if Treliving likes the more Defensive Defenceman.

Problem is solved MMurray is going on LTIR, so MMurray and his contract won't count against the Cap along with Muzzin's hit.
Leafs now only a small move away from getting to the Cap Space limit.
So you can stop the insults about any trades about MMurray, that's now a dead issue.

Your trade proposals are pure garbage Homer-deals Pinball. The feedback you receive on a regular basis is earned, and you just don’t learn from it.

It’s pretty fishy that Murray returned from LTIR on March 4th, and now is declared to be on “LTIR indefinitely with an undisclosed injury”.

Teams complained to the league when the leafs used an emergency clause to bring up another goalie prior to the playoffs, and rightly so. That’s the thing with a salary cap: if you spent too much, that’s not an emergency. It’s just bad management.

I hope the league takes a closer look at the Murray situation. If he’s truly injured, fine. If they’re just avoiding having to buy him out, address it.

MMurray can say he has depression and stay on LTIR.
As for my proposals saying they are garbage etc. Is your opinion which is fine you are entitled to your opinion, at the same time that doesn't entitle you to be right or wrong as that's YOUR opinion.
Of course for example Vaakanainen is much better than Liljegren according to you in my most recent post, I personally like the idea of that swap because Vaakanainen is more a defensive defenceman, but Liljegren is the more talented defenceman in this case imo.

Chickenfoot- I told you so. For the 100th time.

27 Jul 2023 03:43:15
PINBALL: does it register with you that most here think your trades are ridiculous with the comments and voting? I’m not sure how you block out the feedback bud, you’re a fascinating case.

VB: clearly you don’t have much experience with being right since you’re taking the time to give yourself some credit. HILARIOUS MAN! ? You say a lot of stuff that is pretty out there, but even a broken clock is broken twice is right twice a day. I look forward to your next unhinged post. I’m sure it won’t be long Convoy Boy?.

27 Jul 2023 16:27:50
Well said Chickenfoot.

25 Jul 2023 19:00:51
Anaheim Trades
Vaakanainen

Toronto Trades
Liljegren
MMurray

Helps both teams for different reasons.

PINBALL: “Two minutes for delay of game”, “and a Game Misconduct for doing it so frequently “?.
