The Devils are in full blown sell mode. Wonder what the price is on Damon Severson? RHD and better defender than Barrie. $4.1 M cap hit for another 3 yrs.

No, not really.
Kerrie has more pts combined.
Kadri wasnt a great defensively as leafers wanted to believe.
Willie initially replaced kadris spot on the pp.
Kadri would have been suspended at one point in the playoffs.
Saves cap space next season.

None of this is persuasive, sorry. The trade has been an unmitigated disaster. That's why I would like to see Dubas mitigate it by dealing Barrie. Not gonna happen, though, sadly.

I think at some point, if the Leafs core doesn't learn to play consistently (soon), one of them will have to be moved. Missing the playoffs would be a major plank in that idea.

I'm with TIM on this one.

And Dermott at this rate.

Leafs can be hauling it in.

Marcinin could bring in a 4th!

dermott is underrated.

does a lot of good things moving the puck that fly under the radar.

The deal is going to end up being Kerfoot for Naz, with one disastrous year of Barrie. Good deal? Really??

barrie didn't get a valentine's day card from me this year.

but for $2.75M, i can't complain about his play.

He will adjust and get better. The jump up the line up has put him in situations he wasn't prepared for. He's trying to make the same plays and thinks he's has the same time as he did playing against bottom six forwards.

Why would you not move him in this seller's market?

Great. Use that as a selling point and market him.

Again, more expensive, smaller, bad defensive positioning and not a RHD. Liljegren will develop while Dermott seems to have plateaued a bit.

What numbers by the way? He has 9 points FFS.

- JohnFergusonJr


Dubas doesn’t look at points - points are luck - plus no PP yet.

I’m sure you can find some analytics on the intrawebs

He's had a tough year. I do like the player overall, though.

Can we market Barrie too? If not, why? Id rather keep Dermott and move Barrie.

You're saying trade Barrie but that acquiring Barrie was a success. That's adorable.

Trade him because he’s a UFA and the team isn’t good enough.


I’d still do the trade 100 times out of 100.

I love that we’re going to tank from 11th place overall in the league
