I am not one to hope Dubas trades Willy.

However, given Poile's comments today I would bet my hat Nylander for Ellis will be on the table.

Nearly a cash wash for both teams.

how many 7th's you've got this year - 8?
- 21peter

Almost. 3 6ths and 3 7ths.


Gonna nab us our own Lundqvist.

Eff that, do you really trade a 30 goal guy far that?

Ellis is really good, but his concussions worry me...



Nylander for Ekblad

I’d do that deal

Ellis?

He is a very good 2/3 d man.

Problem is he is 29 and Nylander is 24.

I'm gonna out out on a limb here and say if the Leafs trade Nylander and keep Marner it will be a giant fail.

I'd think long and hard about it, that's for sure.

I'd have to dig more but at first glance at his stats Ellis looks like a 2/3 guy...Probably in the same league as Rielly.

Rielly, Ellis, Muzzin is a good top 3 D.

Kind of like keeping JVR and Bozak, but trading Kessel.

Fail how? Fall down to where? Are you saying move Marner instead?

For me, Marner seems to be the obvious choice. The return should be an elite top pairing D, while the return for Willie would hardly be a game changer.

Trade Marner for Ellis and get extra.
Why is everyone so down on Willy?

Kerfoot engages in hitting more than AM & JT. Willy doesn’t break a sweat & has a date with a comb always on his mind. Marner tries more than any of those 3.
- Nighthawk

No he doesn't. He just skates around like Mason Raymond, but more skilled. AM, Nylander, JT in that order. Marner isn't worth the money based on playoff performance.

Tanner loves Ellis. Take that as you will.

Yes.

They'll take Ellis and like it.

I like Willy better than Marner.

I doubt they trade either but it sounds like Marner aint going anywhere.

- 21peter

Agree but very few teams have that to move. Who are you looking at?

We did this to get AM

Who’s trading an elite top pairing D?

- MisterBrown

If they do, then people should be fired.

Nothing to do with being down.

I've always liked Ellis.
