Silly technicality.

Agreed. He was on pace to score 40 goals when the season ended.

Similarly, the Flyers technically won the Stanley Cup this season, as they were the hottest team in the NHL before the shutdown.

It's in the works but only at 25% capacity.

If someone is willing to do the analysis on the teams with the worst D, collectively over the past 10 years I would imagine the Leafs are at the top of the list based on any metrics used.

Acquiring either one of those stiffs from Philly won't help the team win now. Do better Dubie.

I would love to trade for Nylander but to me the cost wont make sense. Obviously if you can get him for Ghost and D or G prospect or pick obviously you cant say no to that but I cant see the Leafs doing so.

We dont have a surplus anywhere where we could move a top young guy. If we moved Sanheim, we dont have anyone to step up and play those minutes unless someone is signed via FA.

JVR Schenn all over again, this time it would be the leafs giving up the fwd for the d man..nylander for sanheim 1 for 1 not happening ..flyers would be adding in this trade.

I don't disagree with your premise but doesn't Nylander actually have to score 40 goals in a season to be a 40 goal scorer?
- MJL


That's fair - I should have said "projects to be a 40 goal scorer" and was essentially on that pace in the shortened season. In any event, Ghost doesn't get the deal done and Dubas wouldn't give Nylander up for another LD, no matter how talented.

Eklund: Battle of Alberta For Matt Murray? Flyers/Leafs Trade Rumors. Buzz@1
- Eklund


How can you have so much info all of a sudden when yesterday you posted that all your sources (GMs, Player agents , and inside sources) are swamped and way way to busy to give you any updates and any inside knowledge?

Please explain you BUM.

Also, telling us that both Edmonton and Calgary are interested in Murray is nothing new. It’s like you saying Malkin has wanted to be the man for the last 5years. Same with the Nylander to Philly rumors for a D man.

Look I get it, during COVID times everyone is struggling in one way or another but at least give us something new. Stop trying to recycle old info for new click bait.

Your better than this EK. Don’t lower yourself to that clown Tanners level.

I am foaming at the mouth of the idea of having Travis Sanheim' in a leaf Jersey.

I agree that Dubas would not trade Nylander for Gostisbehere. I also think Dubas is looking for a more established RH defenseman than what the Flyers have. I don't really see a fit for both teams here. I also don't think Dubas is going to be able to get the player he wants for Nylander.

No way would there be a Nylander for Ghost + deal. The primary piece would have to revolve around Sanheim or Myers, and I think Philly is probably content on keeping their young defensemen. Sanheim will be tough to pry away. Myers even more difficult.

Dubas is negotiating for Parayko and leaked the trade talks with Philly to see if STL will bite.

If Dubas is peddling Nylander, St. Louis won't bite.

Maybe the GMs and agents were busy yesterday but had more time today to chat and share some rumours? Don't listen to this negativity Ek. Keep the roomerz coming.

A possibility of not resigning Pietrangelo, Army will not trade Parayko. That would leave Faulk as the Blues top RHD. A resounding HELL NO!!!

Nah. Blues shouldn’t trade Parayko. Offense is fine and Petro and Parayko manning the right side Blues would be set for years.
