Leafs rebuilding.

People seem to think they are legit top 10 pick this year.

Why trade the 1st now then if that is the case?
- burn

Like Burke, I don't think they will be picking top ten this year.

Facking bosox

Next years first will most likely be a high, so that is off the table.

If Trouba is that great why would it be?

Nope.
Brown, nielson and pick is the most i hope they would ever offer.
- Fakepartofme

Pretty steep price even then.

Yea I'd protect that pick, top-5.(post lottery)

Thing is, with Rielly, Zaitsev, Trouba, and Gardiner... The top-4 looks pretty damn legit.

Matthews could well be a #1C this season. Nylander looked damn impressive last year...

Lots of talent coming into the lineup.
- Feeling Glucky?

Yup

Like Burke, I don't think they will be picking top ten this year.

Not out of the question

Leafs 2017 1st round pick for Trouba....

Pretty steep price even then.
- Feeling Glucky?

Possibly.
Brown, hasnt played half an nhl season, nielson is still 2 years away..
Maybe not

Leafs 2017 1st round pick for Trouba....

Plus plus. Right!?

Connor Carrick, Martin Marincin and Andreas Johnson.

Plus plus. Right!?

Nope..Thats his value..Unproven demanding coin for unknown top 10/5 pick..

Not really that unproven

Jacob Trouba? a 25 point defenseman...Okay...
- the_eye

another over-hyped America prospect....

does he have upside ... yes.

he hasn't surpassed Myers or Byfuglien - he is not going to cost Marner, Nylander or Rielly... and the Leafs would be stupid to include on of those guys.

Gardiner and a pick, perhaps a take another contract back that the Jets want or would like to dump.

Not really that unproven

What was saying going around?
3rd pairing sheltered minutes...

The only place the Jets need help is on the LW and D. They need it in goal too, but that is a clusterfrank.

Nah, Gardiner is a top 4 right now, is Trouba?

My gawd, that guy was trolling.

Really?..Proven what?

Edit from my previous offer. Carrick, Marincin, any LW prospect and Michalek

His upside is large and he'd fit the time line the Leafs are in right now, I'd offer next years first.

So are his contract demands. And our first next year will have a large upside. And be cheaper. And younger. And hopefully less of a suck.

Looking to be over payed. Hasn't over performed. And is me first. Exactly what this team has been trying to shed and move on from.

Really?..Proven what?
- Fruitcakenipple

Over 70pts over 3 seasons.
Still young and nowhere near his potential

Nah, Gardiner is a top 4 right now, is Trouba?
- the_eye

well that's another view.... guess it would depend on how you evaluate them each.

I'm not that high on Gardiner... don't hate him either...

Edit from my previous offer. Carrick, Marincin, any LW prospect and Michalek
- Falon

Yeah, that's about all I'd do.

I'm not counting on the Leafs being that bad again, They certainly could finish out of the bottom 10.
