oldnews Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I doubt the Rangers move McDonagh without bringing a defenseman back in return. The Rags also have better forward prospects on the way than they do D. Even if people want to argue that the values could match up - it doesn't necessarily make sense for the Rags - as a team fighting to make the playoffs... They may using some more scoring punch - but at the price of their 1D - a 24 minute workhorse? Something like this might make more sense for the Rangers in the offseason - but going into the deadline in a playoff race..... it would appear a move that that concedes their season. I'm not sure I buy Brooks' logic here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuxfanabroad Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Someone mentioned cap..well the Fleas will have to PAY WNylander good coin too. Fleas: Gardiner & Nylander Rags: McDonagh & a 2018 3rd. Then... TML : 2018 1st, Rags 3rd, (small cap dump), & maybe Kapanen(?) to us... Van: Tanev Imagine if the Leafs could land McD & Tanev as a pair? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on how desperate they feel the need to make a playoff push this year. JB would be a fool to not set the prices high for now. Way less sellers than teams on the bubble that might want to push plus teams that just want to strengthen themselves for the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think it would be something the Leafs would consider, just depends how much they want to go after it this year while they have JVR and the youngsters on ELC's.

Warhippy Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 If anything at this point what makes the most sense if McDonagh is out is a McDonagh for Johnson trade NYR and CBJ with optional pieces going either way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rush17 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I can see McDonagh for Patches. Give Montreal a huge boost on d and help NYR with their aging forward group. They both want to make moves NYR more so to get younger. MTL to freshen things up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether Lillegrin or Dermott could be the piece instead(?)..Guess the point is them darn Leafs COULD assemble a team that made it thru the East, as early as this spring. If GM's(of competitors, with plenty of parity) are aggressive this TDL, so many top pieces seem attainable. The draft(especially w/Dahlin) seems to gain increasing importance..wouldn't be surprised to see 10 other GM's go full-on sell-mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DallasDrake Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Bit OT here but its just hilarious to think what could have been in Montreal and Toronto. Montreal wont trade Mcdonagh to Rangers for Scott friggin Gomez. Top pair Mcdonagh - Subban makes them contenders for years with Price in net. Toronto wont trade for Phil Kessel and Andrew Raycroft. And now Toronto has a number 1 center Seguin , top Dman in Dougie Hamilton and Franchise goalie Tuukka Rask to build a team around. And people complain of the Vey trade.

wildcam Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Toronto has lots of options... Best D in Arizona is available Larson 26, he is very good. So top D man for trades.. 1.Larson 26 2. McDonagh 3. Tanev--- great contract 2 more yrs at 4.5 4. Gudbranson - There are several other D men available as well.. Think Toronto would like Larson, Arizona also has lots of young prospects to sweeten a deal along with cap space.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
