<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yikes</b></div><div>Well some people will argue like “IF PESCE IS ONLY ASKING THAT MUCH WHY WOULDNT CAROLINA SIGN HIM”

But how can a guy with a career high of 30p ask for more?
He got 18p this year.

He’s obviously a DFD - but I can’t see anyone paying DFD highly anymore. We saw Vlasic’s contract lol. If a DFD can’t keep up his defensive play - he becomes a healthy scratch level player.

So it’s up to Pesce imo. I’d want the Sharks to sign him too. He’s a player I want. But I can’t see a contending team like Toronto saying here is a 5x5 for 20 points.</div></div>

I'd think Toronto would pony that up bc it's not just Pesce whom you're helping, you're helping out Rielly and McCabe as well

And the Leafs PK sucks so they need help there as well

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yikes</b></div><div>Pesce is my top target for any team needing a RD.

Doubt he can ask for much more then his current AAV due to his lack of production - he’ll just be looking for some term.

He’ll be 30 next NOV.

Probably a 4-4.75m aav x 4-6 years.

He stays in Carolina or is a top target - he brings exactly what many teams top 4 needs - a stable DFD. And he’s a RD which makes him all the more lucrative.

Toronto for example could go for Pesce to slap next Rielly and then target some more to build a stronger 2nd pair.</div></div>

That's it? If Pesce's only asking 4 for 6 years... Toronto could prob afford:

Rielly-Pesce
McCabe-Montour
Eddy-Lilly
Benoit

While still keeping Bert and Domi

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HockeyScotty</b></div><div>Leafs fans:

In looking ahead at 2024-25 roster construction/depth charts I noticed that they pipeline of prospects at forward is pretty good (Minten, Cowan, Grebyonkin, Hirvonen, Voit, and Quillan) but few potential roster spots open for them next year, especially if Domi is re-signed; but the D looks like a lot of holes and only 1 NHL ready prospect (if that) potentially (Niemela) or is the feeling that Weber and Kokkonen can make that jump? Which UFA D is most likely to get re-signed (Lyubushkin, Edmundson, Brodie, Giordano)?

If not, do you foresee a trade from position of strength (F) for some D and or G help? Which F prospect(s) would they part with?</div></div>

I think Marner gets dealt for 1, if not 2 defensemen tbh... And I see Libby or Eddy being resigned, but I feel like Brad's got a plan that will take him too long to execute...
