Cool, those players have proved nothing.

But you are right they lost their only 30 goal scorer in Skinner...so they aren’t the same team. I doubt those new players can substitute right away for the loss of Skinner.

20 Sebastian Aho R 78 29 36 65 24 4 -- -- -- -- -- Finland: Rauma 20
86 Teuvo Teravainen L 82 23 41 64 14 8 -- -- -- -- -- Finland: Helsinki 22
14 Justin Williams R 82 16 35 51 56 -9 -- -- -- -- -- ONT: Cobourg 35
53 Jeff Skinner L 82 24 25 49 34 -27

you're right, skinner is so much better than a 21 yo aho and 24 yo tervainen and an 18 yo svechnikov

The only really rental is Edler...at least the only one capable of playing top 4 mins. There are some players in two year deals however who could be in play like Faulk.

Gotta wonder if Willie ends up getting moved in a deal for a D...then the Leafs can look at adding a winger at the deadline. There are many of them.

Nyqvist, Panarin, Stone, Eberle, ect

Myers is pending ufa, maybe jets don't want to lose him for nothing if not signed by deadline.

Blues have a history of trading pending ufa and they have 3 dmen in that predicament.

There will probably be someone become avaialable that no one saw coming, usually happens at least once a year.

And as you said mayBe a guy with a year still left after this year is traded

Tervainen was on the team with Skinner......no clue why you are mentioning him.

And yes. Svechnikov is 18 with 3 games of playing experience.

Dude. Bottom line offence is their weakness...everyone but you thinks it so keep UGing if it makes you feel better.

Myers has a big name but lord, his advanced stats are horrific. I am not even sold he's a good top 4 D

Either way there will be limited D available...the market won’t play in the Leafs hands.

Montour is a player I’m interested in.

I don't believe any Canucks player has ever won the Byng, although I believe several Leaf players have
- LeftCoaster

If they did, no one cared. Similar to the presidents trophy.

I think that is going to be the plan. Don't rush. If someone comes available unexpectedly at some point they have the room and the assets to make a play. At the deadline they will have loads of cash to add a big piece for this year.

Big pieces cost lost of pieces.
Besides, not too many big pieces available at the deadline.

He's a special teams guy at this point for the most part.

Yeah those early-years hype and Calder have people thinking he's better than he is. He's pretty crappy.

Kind of lukewarm on grabbing a D () at the deadline.

Maybe if the intent was to sign, ok, but not a lot of marquee guys out there period, let alone expiring content.

And Tervainen had 60 points last season and was a better player than skinner. You said they have no offense, and a 24 yo 60 point player disproves that point.
And saying I'm Uging? You don't like being told you're wrong do you?

Maybe because there's some concern over Sparks performance and his ability to effectively play the role of backup moving forward?
