No Tor fans boston isnt going to give u pots or lohrei.
BOS
2.
TOR
  1. Jokiharju, Henri [RFA Rights]
Additional Details:
Could be one of the other young kids who are looking to crack the NHL roster but 25 yearold RD looks like a fit for both sides.
BUF
3.
TOR
  1. Athanasiou, Andreas ($2,125,000 retained)
  2. 2025 4th round pick (NYR)
Additional Details:
Gets a middle 6 fwd to replace him. Not a great fit for Tor but a great one for NR.
CHI
4.
TOR
  1. 2025 3rd round pick (DAL)
Additional Details:
Honestly have no clue what Dal would be willing to give up outside picks. Fits for NR, would be with his brother and get to play with a great 3rd line.
DAL
5.
TOR
  1. Bourgault, Xavier
  2. Lavoie, Raphael [RFA Rights]
  3. 2026 4th round pick (EDM)
Additional Details:
1. not both.
Goal scorer for fairly cheap on a team that is great with scoring and has elite talent. No clue what id be ok with but something similar to this
EDM
6.
TOR
    dont have a clue what FLA is ok with moving but depth young scorer for cheap on a team who is looking to replace a few of the goals they lost this offseason
    FLA
    7.
    TOR
    1. Dvorak, Christian ($2,225,000 retained)
    2. 2025 3rd round pick (NJD)
    Additional Details:
    Would be a 3rd lineC for Tor who needs one. MTL gets a young scorer to add to there young core. not 100% sure on this one but it works in my head
    MTL
    8.
    TOR
      Not a clue what would work but NR would fit into NY imo very well. they have only have 5th+ picks or 1sts mostly over the next few years. not sure how it would work but
      NYR
      9.
      TOR
      1. Gourde, Yanni
      2. Larsson, Adam
      Additional Details:
      one of these 2 at 50% retained. 3c or 2/3RD that both are needs for Tor
      Maybe the Dal 4th could get added?

      TOR
      1. 2025 2nd round pick (LAK)
      Additional Details:

      TBL
      11.
      TOR
        Would anyone be surprised?
        Dont even know what vegas could give them that Tor would want but its vegas

        TOR
        1. 2025 2nd round pick (BOS)
        Additional Details:
        have the extra second that should be a late 2nd. NR would be a good middle line goal scorer that can learn behind ovi to hopefully take a step forward.

        im not even a Tor fan im an edm fan who also likes boston. I couldnt gaf about most of the Tor roster but saying a 14 goal scorer and .5 point player at 22 isnt going to get at least an ok return is wild. plenty of teams like boston and Seattle would gladly take him. both teams have holes in depth scoring hell id be glad to give up one of our non NHL kids for someone at the same age who is a lock to be a 20+ goal scorer for the next few years at pretty cheap money

        Id argue a 22 yearold (soon to be 23) goal scorer who is only going to get better is a perfect fit to play with bedard + a playmaker. hes young and has good potential and already is a decent NHLer whos going to get 20+ on any team next year

        i would probably do Dvo and our worst 4th in '25 or '26...similar to Alex Nylander in his DY+5 for Sam Lafferty

        Id argue that robertson is much more valueable. I think his vlaue is a late 2nd/ early 3rd. gave the div tax to a few teams. Think u guys dont need Dvorak and nobody is calling about with that contract getting a young goal scorer to compliment the bright future imo would be great. low risk high reward giving up ur 3rd/4thc and a useless 3rd/4th rounder that most likely wont be anything and u already have an elite prospect pool

        Nylander had scored less points in more games with more icetime then roberston on a much much much much worse Blackhawks team as his first "full" season. he then didnt even play another NHL game for 3-4ish years. Robertson isnt even close to that. hes clearly plenty talented enough to be a 3rd/4th line 15-20 goal scoerer as his floor. Nylander didnt look great while roberston needs to add a bit of weight and would easily be a great 2nd liner for so many teams

        Regardless of Robertson's perceived "upside" the Hawks likely aren't looking to add more undersized forwards to their top 6, especially longer term. Hardly a perfect fit to play w/ Bedard. Hawks also wouldn't burn one of their two retention slots to acquire Robertson either. Hawks pass.

        it would be for 1 year, ur likely to move him at the TDL retained. not many people will call at the TDL if ur not. him, hall and martinez are the only guys who will gain value with ret% and will need to, to move them. hes "undersized" but it any weight gain he will be fight. the idea that someone of his size cant play because hes a few inches shorter then the avg NHL player when there are multiple "undersized" superstars and great players is such a dumb way to lessen a player or there value. having Bedard who is a great space creator, and while being known for his flashy goals hes a great playmaker and will only improve. him + a young sniper only needs a 2 way playmaker to make that an elite line in 3 years.

        Robertson is worth a 5th at his absolute most. Only IF a team wants to take a flyer on him. He’s requested a trade. It’s also obvious he’s not a fit in Toronto, so he will be eventually given up on so a team can acquire him for free.

        Think about the Value of a guy like Yamamoto, who’s probably better than Robertson. That’s the value of Robertson.

        That’s a VERY EASY “no” from Buffalo
        Just not interested in Robertson at all
        We have so many more talented forward prospects that he’d be buried in the AHL & never get a chance
        Plus, we like Jokiharju

        Just isn’t gonna happen

        i mean i just disagree, a guy who scored 15 goals with 0 powerplay time a team that clearly didnt really want him and didnt play for 25% of the season id say is far far more valueable then yamamoto who older and significantly worse offensively. plenty of teams could use a young speedy 15-20 goals player in there bottom 6 for dirtcheap money. hes worth imo a late 2nd or early 3rd but i could see the value dropping to a 3rd/4th to a non div rival bc the trade request. his only thing against him is hes a light small forward. wouldnt be hard for him to gain 5-10 pounds and he will be a speedy 3rd liner who scores 20 as his floor.

        wasnt 100% sure about buffalo. u guys got some young forwards but imo Robertson is currently better then a lot of ur kids edge nhl/ahl so a year or 2 of 20+ goals and then being able to move him i thought was plenty well of a fit. u guys have tons of money in ur Dcore(or at least will after a few others get there money) and just feel like hes the odd one out. not 100% sure were i would value jokiharji, right shot thats a solid Defender but hes 25 and seems to be reaching his peak. wouldnt put him on the top2 pair of any contending/close to team and needs a contract.

        We aren’t a Cup contender right now though,
        and Jokiharju is still young enough that we can see what he’ll develop into over this next contract (probably 3-4yrs long)

        We can have so much $$$ in our defense right now bc we have so much good young talent close to NHL ready at forward
        Kulich, Rosen, Savoie & Ostlund we’re all 1st round picks over the last couple years & have developed nicely
        We just don’t have any room for Robertson at all
