Leafs interested in Pietrangelo.

Chatter surrounded the Blues that Pietrangelo was not happy when the team acquired Faulk and then signed him to an extension immediately, meanwhile the team hasn’t made any legit offers to him.

The Leafs are willing to include Nylander in the deal if they are allowed to work on contract extension during trade negotiations.

If no extension talks are included in the trade, the Leafs prefer to include Kapanen, In case Petro walks after the season. The deal also included Liljigren and a 2nd.

Petro currently holds a no trade clause but the the feeling is Toronto is a no brainer for the King City Ontario native.
Blues don’t want to risk losing him for nothing at end of the season.

Article/ rumor out there now.

I myself think he will stay and sign an extension in STL.

If Pietrangelo feels threatened by Faulk then that’s Pietrangelo’s ego complex problem. If it’s true m, what does that tell you about his character? Pietrangelo threatened by Faulk. Lol.

OMG NO. Alex is NOT coming to Toronto. Your rumor is a joke . Not even in the realm of being legit.

Only way he leaves St Louis is if St Louis doesn’t want to sign him. More so, if Leafs want to top blue-liner than one of their big three need to go, I mean unless they think Rielly and Petro can carry their blue-line by themselves, because no way they’d be able to sign any other defensemen.

Not saying I am going for this but if tor did sign for 10 it's only 3 more than nylander. You will just have to keep elc s coming in. I think he will resign with blues.

Clarkson and Horton come off the books at the end of the season, and I doubt Ceci will be offered another contract, so that's $14 million in spending money to work with.

When people mention the cap issues with Toronto I feel like they're overlooking the fact that Dubas is already thinking further ahead than the fans are.

Hall and Mark Stone will be good comparables to what St. Louis will potentially get in a trade. Don’t think he’s moved imo I know one thing tho if he’s moved everyone will be shocked on here because people are to stupid to realize UFAs aren’t worth a lot.

I agree with you on all points vb. Well said.

He wasn’t threatened by Faulk, it’s suggesting he was kissed off with the organization because he felt it was a lack of respect not even being talked to about a contract. It’s principle. You probably don’t understand. Lol
And ya, Dubas is really thinking ahead. Like he did with the 3 year +35 contract he gave out when he knew Marner and Matthews deals would kick in on that third year and he’d be screwed. Or was his plan always to have to give away valuable assets (1st) just to get rid of that “mistake”. Now that’s thinking ahead. 😂.

Marleau wasnt signing anywhere else without that 3 year cushion. I'm not Dubas but I imagine what he was thinking was that the 2017-2018 team would have been able to contend much better and that 3 year contract was their window to try and win a cup before the kids got their big contracts?
