<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sheldon_kweef</b></div><div>Saros had 0.04% better SV% than samsonov in the playoffs...</div></div>

…and .16 better in the regular season. Plus he plays for Nashville (great defensemen there). If the Leafs can get .927 or even .918 goaltending out of him, it’ll be worth it.

(plus the Leafs aren’t gonna be the ones complaining about playoff performance in this deal…)

Thread: What I would do as GM of the Leafs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TyeZerker</b></div><div>One question why would NSH trade their goalie and run with a rookie or a FA instead of keeping Saros and Saros is not that good</div></div>

Well, Askarov is as good of a rookie goalie as you’re gonna get (and Saros is that good).

The player Nashville probably isn’t giving up is Novak. Just re-signed to a 3-year deal.

I think we’ll see Fabbro gone. I think we’ll see Tomasino gone. We might see that 4th gone. I just don’t know if Cernak’s the guy for us right now.

Yeah, that’s more of an any team move. I only picked Chicago because a $2.5M replacement level forward is exactly what they need to reach the cap floor.

Thread: Space Mountain

Signings fit the mold, and it doesn’t really matter, but I don’t love this for Anaheim and I can’t really put my finger on why. Just feels too much like overspending.

Thread: NAS has cap room so might do this if Askaraov is ready

Askarov is ready. I don’t know if Nashville is in a position to give up their first — maybe Tomasino + a second rounder (maybe add on another pick?)

The Jackets also offer sheeted Marner and he didn't sign.</div></div>

You may be right, and trading Marner comes up every offseason. It just feels different this time. Obviously he can block any deal, but (outside observer take) he might really enjoy being out of the limelight. Plus he’d be a star in Nashville.

Thread: MONTREAL MARNER

Sensing a variety of opinions in this comment section. FWIW, as an outside observer, I think it’s pretty fair — Marner, despite his flaws, is still really good, and for a in-division deal, a 2D, 3C, 4-6D, 25-32 (or thereabouts) first rounder and a 50-64 second isn’t a terrible price to pay. It’s also probably not a price the Habs are willing to pay.

I don’t love Norris, especially the price we’d have to pay. Ottawa’s looking for a PPG-level return, which you can’t do if he only plays 4 games per season. That would be a fail on par with the Jeannot deal.

Love the Sabres, wish them all the best, but they’re a case study in why bridge contracts need to be a thing.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SociallyHawkward</b></div><div>This is actually bad for Nashville. They desperately need a top line center so much more than 1 year of marner.</div></div>

Yeah but who’s out there? Maybe Svechkov in a couple years, maybe trade for Zegras (but the Ducks don’t want Saros so you’d have to switch up the return (and he’s not even a first line center really))

This is one of those problems that isn’t really solvable in a year where the top free agent C is Sean Monahan

Would Saros for Marner straight up be an option? If so, yes every time.

He might with tax breaks lmao. Besides, no way we sniff the playoffs next year, so he can’t be a playoff disappointment like always.

Thread: How id turn this team into a contender

I just posted a Saros + Tomasino + 2nd and 3rd for Marner. I think that’s a bit more likely.

Saros is probably on his way out after today, and I imagine Barry Trotz wants to keep McDonagh.
