intersetting.

Dumba could be a nice addition. what trash would it take to pry him out of minny i wonder, kap perhaps, but what about nylander for dumba +

- TheMussel

I'm holding onto Nylander unless some team ridiculously overpays.

to be fair, freddy may not be the right goalie.

his strengths are his rebound control, puck tracking and lateral movement. things that work better on team that babs wanted; one playing a tight defensive system in front of him.

he's consistently struggled with forwards shooting at him from the wing with speed. like some of the hawks goals.

maybe a goalchie like lehner who is big and relies on athleticism would be a better fit for keefe's system.

what about the lame wraparound and the firstgoal scored from the stands

my brain says yes, this improves the team

but my Fantasy hockey head and heart say..no way, Rielly is worth more.

reality is, this probably makes the Leafs a lot better now.

oh well

Also, on Leafs Lunch Mike Johnson is saying that the Leafs slump is because of Andersen. Andi and Dreger seem confused and dumbfounded.

Maybe it makes them better now, because Rielly is injured..

That is a trade we lose.

Maybe it is a little bias but I think Rielly is the better player.

Plus, I like Kapanen a lot. Zucker is a good player, but I would rather have Kap.

Took a quick look and he (and Zucker) have quite the oiSH% this year. Much higher than last year and career numbers. Curious to see the 2 or 3 year comparison.

Would we have any interest in Vatanen from NJ?

If we could get them to take Ceci, we could throw in Bracco, and obviously something else of value.

Thoughts? How high are you willing to go?

Yeah I'd likely want Severson over Vatanen as well.

Dreger said that Muzzin wants to be a Leaf, and that there is interest on both sides to get a deal done..

It's gonna suck, when Muzzin walks away as a UFA

I havent looked up anything, just whatever was listed in the tweet.

But i think Rielly could fetch a better D back, just based on perception of his value

I'm not convince Dubas will want him enough to offer him a good deal.

That's my line of thinking.

On the left side, we have Rielly, Dermott and Sandin... I don't know if Muzzin stays.. Maybe if Dermott is traded?

Zucker is good.

The gap between Zucker and Kap is bigger than the gap between Rielly and Brodin, IMO.
