Martinez will end up in Vegas which probably means Leafs will get Vatanen.
Haven't seen him play that much, but he was ok in Anaheim. (although not that good defensively).
Barrie to Edmonton.

Severson probably.

Dubas working on replacement for Barrie

Severson for Johnsson , Marincin, 2021 2nd

- paulozz




nah... doesn't need to.

addition by subtraction... Barrie out for draft picks, spare hockey sticks, extra equipment back... etc.

Llijegren in... Barrie hasn't seen any PK time so its not like your asking the kid to actually play defense.

besides, Dubas just dealt Marchment for Malgin - EXACTLY what the Marlies need, another 5'9' 175lb forward... I bet he can turn "real quick" and will work great with Petan.

seriously Dubas... that's what you have spending your time on...

With Johnsson out for the season an NHL roster player might be what the Leafs need.

Wouldn't be surprised if Andersen asked for it. If he gets shelled then I figure him and Campbell will split starts for the remainder.

- TheMussel


perhaps, but I would think that Korshkov who scored in his debut probably could fill that role, or it could have been Petan...

but my primary point was - regardless of the injury to Johnsson, the primary focus probably shouldn't be on acquiring another forward at this point...

defense perhaps?

besides, Rielly could be out for the season, and it looks like Ceci will be as well.

how come Dubas hasn't found a replacement for those guys - I would think that would be priority over yet another midget forward

Sure, but the trade was available, it fills a potential hole in the roster...

should he have foregone this trade because the Leafs have needs on D? I don't imagine that the Malgin trade has occupied all of Dubas' time over the last month.

Just because they traded for Malgin doesn't mean it was the primary focus. Just means that out of everything being discussed its the move that came to fruition first...

doesn't want to pay the very high price (ridiculous) for a quality D right now...IMO

I'm sure this deal did not take up to much of his time. And marchment was never going to be an NHL player

Nice, is that the Leafs season? Of Keefe’s head? Cause last night he was totally befuddled after the game.. classic ‘bingo’ comment...

If Andersen gets shelled again tomorrow night, then might as well move him at the trade deadline.. Campbell can be the starter.. The team trusts Campbell more than Andersen at this point..

Also, I'm kidding.

Dubas got a guy that can play in the NHL. Marchment can't. Dubas has a Calder cup. He knows how to win with the Marlies.

please give me the update on the "leafs on a xx point pace since Keefe is head coach".
going soon to under 100points for sure...

babcock wasn't the problem.
it's Dubas and his awful vision on how to assemble a team around 4 core players (Tavares, Marner, Mattthews, Rielly) and what type of additional pieces are required.

Did we really just get Malkin for Marchment?

Sweet.
