[Speculation] Stecher might be on the market
WHL rocks replied to HerrDrFunk's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Need to add to our D not make it worse. IF Stecher gets traded it'll be for upgrade on D. -

Wow! Boys On The Bus. Show on the NHL Network Must watch. 1986/87 Oilers like you've never seen them. It was produced a few years ago but I've never watched it before. -

Gaudette is not going anywhere. That's just some guy throwing crap at the wall hoping something sticks. -

All depends on who they face. This is a playoff type of team. Can easily win a couple of rounds. I wouldn't be surprised if they make it to round 3. Any thing more is be a bit surprised but I can easily see them win 2 rounds. Boeser and Lievo coming in healthy for playoffs make this team so deep. If Ferland was health then even deeper and 2 rounds would be expected. That would have added heaviness to the bottom 6. Would have been a huge difference .. Hopefully stecher can be packaged for a heavy tough 3rd pair D. Need to add toughness and upgrade the D -
It's not about a shut down D for them. It's about their whole team defense. They can get 2 top end shut down Dmen it won't help unless the entire team buys in. If you watch them play they have no structure or defensive systems. If you watched the game vs PIT yesterday all tic tac toe, back side, open net goals. All leafs start skating towards the opposing puck carrier. It's like watching peewee hockey.

Leafs getting blown out by PIT. Time to switch to CBJ PHI game. Edit Switching again. Philly made it 4-1. 15 mins to go in 3rd. CAR NSH game is good. 1-0 for Canes second period about to start. -
Just heard Toffoli's wife apparently has a good job with LA Dodgers. He'll likely go back to LA if they are willing to sign him back. He'll pbbly take less to sign with LA. Or ANA could be an option. Just got that info. I'm much less confident we will re sign him now. This looks mostly like a pure and simple rental.

Completely agree. I never believe what these so called "insiders" say. They make a good judgement call and report it as some secret in side info. For example none of them had an idea about the Toffoli trade prior to it happening. Then took half hour for details coming out. Step by step. Little details at a time. Not one of them got it beforehand and not one got all the details. They were all spoon fed bits and pieces at a time shared amongst them by the powers that be.

Well it's going to be a lot harder to make the playoffs next season. Tanev Stecher Marky need to be resigned. Most likely 2 of those are gone. We will have a younger team with 2 or 3 rookies added and vets leaving due to cap issues. Could have Demko as our starting goalie next season.. If we make playoffs this year we give our 1st to NJD via TBL. Next year we're likely to take a step back. So we keep our 1st. Would hate to give up a lottery pick to NJD via TBL . Have to make playoffs 1 of next 2 and we are primed this year. Next year will be harder to make playoffs.

I doubt that. These insiders make up this kind of stuff on the regular. No one paid that price. Caps have been losing. Why not pay that price last week. They realised prices went up and they'll have to pay that now. Craig Button was saying on tv yesterday his cost was a 3rd but because market went up its a 2nd now. Market for players 100% went up after what Tampa paid. Then NYI had to pay a steep price too. And all of a sudden everyone's price went up. It became a sellers market. It's not even a question.

Horvat must be ecstatic. He will have a permanent right shot right winger now. At least in playoffs after Boeser returns. He's had 16 different wingers over the past cpl yrs. Gotta figure out a way to extend Toffoli. He's somewhere between Pearsson and Miller as a player. Very solid pick up.. Madden could end up like a Goldobin. He is a former 1st rounder and just not rugged enough or talented enough to be a full time NHLer
