MBN at 23 would genuinely be one of the drafts biggest steals. Fingers crossed he drops that low

I have no clue what a Marner trade is going to look like. Not really sure what teams are fits. I like the idea of adding another 1st rounder this year, it would be lovely to walk away from this draft having solved our center and defense issues in the long term.

I really like the idea of adding guys like Josh Doan and Jack McBain (among other pieces of course), and it does seem like Utah will want to compete immediately. I don't hate the idea of Doan and pick #6, granted I don't think Arizona would love that. Doan and Dicky for Mitch would be a fine deal. Plus, it would be neat to see Josh join his Dad in Toronto now that his chance to play in AZ is gone

I'd wonder if BT would try to model it after the Tkachuk deal. Don't think he'd get as high end players back, but maybe something along the lines of (and I know Marner probably wouldn't waive for Ottawa, this is just an example) Batherson, Chychrun, Bos 1st

Prediction: Leafs land one or both of Zadorov and Tanev this summer. BT was supposedly trying hard for the pair

Secondary part of the prediction: Z will be for way too much/too long, but Tanev will be a reasonable number but with more than ideal term (3-4y) cause he’s a Toronto boy

How about those London Knights

Not interested in Zadarov, hes a hi-end 3rd pair to me that is luxury.

Not interested in Tanev, worried about the mileage on this guy.

Give me Roy at 6 and Montour at 7 for the D.


I have an idea on goalie, been afraid to say it out loud.
Hypothetically if Boston traded Ullmark to Utah, in a Marner trade...

Marner
Reaves

For

Doan
Ullmark at 50% retention
2nd rounder x2

Whose on board

Keefes post game comment was enough to send me back here for one last angry tirade against that pathetic excuse for a head coach.

For you guys who haven't seen the quote, it goes as follows: "When teams beat the Leafs, they set up the game for the Leafs to beat themselves"

Pretty choice wording here. First off, whose job is it to make sure the team sticks to the system? Whose job is it to adapt and manage the team? Whose job is it to react when teams start applying pressure? Whose job is it to keep your players heads straight? THATS YOUR JOB SHELDON. Actually, let me back it up; that used to be your job Sheldon. Kiss your spot on the bench goodbye and don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out. You have done nothing for the Leafs and won't do anything for any other NHL teams unless they are looking to tank. If only your bulldog-like appearance also translated to a bulldog-like mentality. You can blame the players for sure, but YOU are just as big of a part of this team as they are, and YOU are largely to blame for this team setting themselves up for failure. Who decides to put the 4th line out at critical points in the game? Who decides to play Samsonov when it's abundantly clear Woll should play? Who decides to keep going back to the same old tactics that always fail? THATS YOU, SHELDON.

In good news, Keefes wording is pretty specific. He distances himself from the team, which is hopefully an indication of his inevitable departure from this team. We deserve so much better than some pathetic excuse for a head coach who thinks he's all that because he used to front as a tough guy back in the early 2000s. He thinks he's all that because the Marlies stacked team walked their way to a Calder Cup. My only hope is that this born loser is hired by another Atlantic division team so we can beat up on them in the first round.

Keefe is a coward who does not know hockey. He doesn't take any sort of accountability, gives a pass to our best players when they disappear, and rips into our other players when they occasionally make minor mistakes. Hope you enjoyed your time in the sun Sheldon, because you will never be a name anyone remembers outside of reminiscing about the Leafs plights prior to our Cup win. You will go down as a laughing stock and a detriment. Enjoy unemployment Sheldon

7 for Montour would be BRUTAL, imo. The guy has one crazy outlier season and honestly isn't much of a puck mover/creator despite his reputation. He's a volume chance guy, lots of low percentage stuff from him from what I've seen.

Would also be taking a hard pass on the Marner deal. No chance I trade him for a package centered around pretty much any goalie, let alone a 31y/o who's pretty much been a solid tandem guy for the vast majority of his career.

So I have wanted Roy and stuff but those two contracts would hurt IMO

Then for Marner for Ullmark pass. That would not be a good trade for us as I dont see Ullmark being the answer. He's a nice goalie but I dont see him as the better of a matchup against Swayman, Vasilesky, Bobrosky, etc.


Dman I see Brad targeting this summer

Dillon
Demelo
Walker

But would also not be surprised to see Lybushkin or Edmundson return

If Marner's traded look at a Eichel deal or a Tkachuck deal. If were targeting a goalie go for Saros or Sorokin

Do you not see any value in the cap space back along with Doan plus picks?

Ullmark at 2.5 million on 1 year is better than the free agent options

Sure Ullmark is better but why not just trade for an actual difference maker goalie like Saros or Sorokin via Marner?

As Tree put it why dont we have the better goalie in net vs. our opponent

Doans interesting but we have a very small sample size for him. What if next year he struggles.

TOR should be eyeing a trade similar to Tkachuck with emphasis on a starting goalie and top 4 RD thats what I would target

Saros is fine but he will be costly in trade with little else included, plus his lack of size doesn't worry you?

Sorokin is a fantasy, Islanders trading him... I'll believe it when it happens regardless of the playoff events


I'm not stuck on Ullmark by any means, nor am I on Montour.
Roy I want, any thoughts on another D man with a shot? Yes we need this on the team cause Rielly don't have one.

Saros has done fine in the league despite his size. For a goalie that does not worry me its Dman to where its a concern

I do not care for cost at this point as TOR needs to get their goaltending straightened out

We have Woll whose injury prone and were expecting 40 games out of him next year, 0 idea what we have in Hildeby, and the UFA market sucks. Sure we can trade for Ullmark or sign Talbot but Brad said it best in that presser "we dont want to have the second best goalie in a series" Ullmark would be that vs. Swayman, Vasi, and Bobrosky.

Go invest in a legit starter.

I'd at least talk to Lou and see where the organization stands with Sorokin because they also added Roy as the coach who chose to play the other guy.
