I trade Gardiner and Nylander for Trouba in a heartbeat. Not sure what the holdup is...

See everyone's gone all (frank)tard on Trouba's value.


Leafs should trade Matthews, Marner, Nylander and Rielly for an absolute poop load and that will speed the rebuild up. Trading for "potential" seems to add a ton to one's value.

Why do people have some giant boner to get rid of Nylander.

Honestly. This guy is one of the most talented prospects in the league and people just want to ship him out...

Even I wouldn't trade Nylander in a deal for him. That's going backwards. The only reason I want him is our forward depth is looking great, and I want to make our d just as strong. Take Nylander out, and that lowers us a few rungs.

If a deal can be made without losing a top 6 forward, which we only have 3 of.Mathews JVR and Kadri.
Or without losing Nylander Marner or Brown i'm all for it.
It's not gonna happen without at least one of the ones I mentioned.
Rielly or Zaitsev also.

With the Leafs just finishing last overall that first round pick might get a boatload.

So Trouba is even worth more than that, man nobody's getting that guy.

My point was more that maybe, giving up a 1st isn't such a bad idea given that it's a relatively weak draft class. But then there's the issue with Trouba and his contract demands.

I'd trade the 1st for Trouba, but it would have to be a sign and trade and no more than 5 mill.

Here's something people need to think about when the pro-Trouba Leaf fans chime in. As of right now, and probably for the rest of their careers, Morgan Rielly looks like the better player. Captain Morgan makes 5 mil a year. The Leafs probably won't offer Trouba much more than that, which means he probably won't agree to sign with this team.

Depends on if Babcock and Co. Are night on this guy or not. Who knows they could have zero interest or..Babcock could think he's the best answer for number 2 RHD on the top pairing.

He fits a need that's for sure. Is he worth the asking price ?

We know what the asking price is. The only player that fits from this team is Gardiner because Rielly > Trouba in my opinion.
