Mike Augello: Leafs in on Tavares, but where to they go if Plan A falls through?

Fist

The answer is and always has been Bozak.

4x5 should get it done

I've gotten this sudden urge to kick you.

no tavares to the leafs

If they can’t sign Tavares, move Nylander to centre. Trade for Faulk (2019 1st + Sparks)

Hyman-Matthews-Marner
Johnsson-Nylander-Kapanen
Marleau-Kadri-Brown
Moore-Lindholm-Jagr (lol)

Rielly-Faulk
Gardiner-Zaitsev
Dermott-Hainsey
Carrick

Andersen
Pickard


Trust me, I’m a great NHL 18 GM.

The answer has always been Bozak leaving and not playing for the Leafs anymore.

God I hope not.

Better option than Jumbo, who is David Steckel with good hands at this point.

Who cares what you think? What’s important is what UG thinks. If he likes him, then don’t trade for him.

Maybe he would Burnsie


I think we’d all be ecstatic about having him back for [email protected] no?

Brett Pesce not Faulk. Don't @ me.
Or do.. I don't mind, makes for good debate.

Best to forget about Tavares. Too expensive with the young guns needing to get paid.
Might look good for 3 or 4 years, but by year 4 or 5, it'll be a boat anchor of a contract. Having Matthews at 1 and Kadri at 2 is a decent top 2 lines. If Bozak could sign for 3 years at $10 million total, it's a gain. Lots of 4th line veterans out there, so it'll shore up the centre spot. Maybe some overtures toward Buffalo could put the Nylander brothers together. Rasmus Ristolainen should be the target. If you have to throw in a plug like Connor Carrack to get it done, then do so.

Salary cap should be based on income after taxes. What a nightmare trades would become

Agreed. Why should some jurisdictions get a gift from other places? It's really a bad deal in the NBA.

I’d rather Pesce but the Canes won’t (well, at least shouldn’t) trade him.

Maybe he would Burnsie

Well, I think you missed the joke about him signing for a discount at what he currently makes....


I don't think so. Time to move on, get better. Need someone who plays better defense and competes harder. Cannot continue to shelter him and get mediocre return

Risto makes no sense for the leafs. Especially for Nylander

No thanks

Look I will admit that even as a fan of Bozie I get what you're saying.

But I looked around both in house and around the league and am having a hard time finding a better option.
