Prefer just De Haan

But if the LHD,RHD matters to Dubas

Gardiner+a prospect for Faulk

Sigh De Haan for 4 years.

Rielly/Faulk
De Haan-Z
Dermott-Carick
Holl

That is a good d group

- Santo_44


Lots of noise on Twitter that it's close for de haan. 4x3.8

Might be 17 million
M Martin was paid bonus July 1st 1.5 mil

Contract 1 million off books
16+ 1 = 17 million

Add 5 million when Horton goes back on official ltir = $22 million

- BreathLeafs2015



That's not how it works, Martin cap hit is 2.5mil.

Nevertheless we still have some space

I have been summoned to give my thoughts and review of this trade.

Pros:
-Free up 2.5 million in cap space for future signings of Marner, Matthews, Nylander and Kapanen
-Matt Martin sucks
-The level of butt hurt on HFBoards

Cons:
-The Leafs are softer than ever, we are talking baby poop soft.
-Matt Martin was tough and made hits
-HFBoards posters all saying Lou Lamoriello still working for the Leafs because he made this deal

Review: Indifferent about this trade, stay or nay it really made no difference in the long run.
HFBoards posters are very stupid. I would not be surprised if many of them have HB accounts also.

That is all.

No one called him lidstrom

He's more than a 5-6 guy.

If the leafs got him for a good contract that would be very helpful.

What individual awards can a Dman win besides the Norris? Are you saying if a Dman doesn't have a Norris or a cup he's not worth signing as a free agent?

Leafs need him to be an upgrade defensively over Gardiner that's all.

Who do think they flip him (51) for? The Canes are always mentioned lately but Faulk isn’t the answer and the others are Gards+. Anyone else worth takin a shot at realistically?

If you’re going to use the lack of individual awards and/or a Cup as a reason why a player is a “bum,” then be consistent...brah.

Realistically I wonder who's the best RHD the leafs can get by packaging Gardiner and kapanen.
