I know offer sheets don't happen often in today's NHL, but leafs are looking for a top 4 RHD. Apparently rumours are suggesting to find one on the trade market (vatanen, dumba, trouba) would take a first and a good prospect.

Colton parayko is a big guy, can play in all situations, can skate very well for his size and is an RFA. He also was Morgan Reilly's partner in the World Cup on the top pair after ekblad was hurt.

Compensation for a contract with an AAV between 5.88 and 7.85 mill is 2018 1st, 2nd and 3rd pick. As a leafs fan I would be far happier to see them part with those 3 picks for parayko than 2017 17th overall and Connor brown for one of those others.

Thinking like a 6 years x 6.75 mill.

Rielly Parayko
Gardiner Zaitsev
Top 4 for just under 20 mill all locked up Between 22 and 26 years old.

The problem with offer sheets is that no one really wants to overpay a player especially Maple leafs with huge contracts coming up and if u give a fair offer the respective team will match it most likely.

Paryanko is on a different level then those 3. IMO Paryanko is the best U25 dman in the NHL.

Ristolainen is better than parayko. But that's also your opinion not mine.

Leafs don't have Their 2nd rnd pick or their third rnd pick in 2017 nor do they have a their 3rd rnd pick in 2018. So they will not be able to offer that amount of money. I would think the STL would match that any way. The only offer sheet toronto can offer is 4 first round picks. They require a third rnd pick in every situation above 4 mil a year.

With that contract he isn't in your mentioned aav range. If you make an offer sheet the highest divisor for the aav is 5 (years) . So if you offer sheet 7x7 means that's an aav of 9.8 mil (49:5)

Yah RIsto is not bad at all Same with Eklblad-Injurys. I'd say RIsto=Paryanko just a personal preference. I see Paryanko as a future shea Weber with speed.

I like Parayko, however as an under 25 guy, ill take Ekblad and as McJesus says Risto. but it is close IMO between Risto and Parayko.

Yeah just giving an example of something I think better. There's a lot of good dman under age 25 but parayko is defs up there.

Yeah. Ekblad is the best one but he's obviously unattainable. The AAV I have him in would actually cost 2 1st rounders, a second and a third. 6x6.5 instead of 6.75 would keep it in the lower threshold meaning only 1 1st rounder. Again, doubt it would ever happen. Just an interesting thing to fill a RHD spot that most people are assuming will come via trade.

parayko is sheltered behind peitrangelo on a very good defensive team. risto rielly and ekblad are all the top guys of their respective defensive units.

What about patayko playing for team Canada and for team north America on top line was that sheltered too.
