The Leafs should have moved Nylander in this deal. Did Sakic want him though? I'd rather have Kadri if I was Sakic 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweathog Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 4 minutes ago, Alflives said: Yup. Trading Nylander for a good defensively minded centre should be what they do. Unless they think Nylander is going to play #3 centre? Knowing the Leafs they'll try him out as goaltender. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Leafs will still suck. When it matters most. Because they're the Leafs. They'll find a way. But seriously - that's a nice recovery from an otherwise difficult recent period for their fans. Reilly Ceci Muzzin Barrie Dermott Harpur Not bad. If they were to add Tanev to that right side, then they could be in business imo. I like Ceci - and Harpur could bounce back as well - although I think they probably may still need to add another depth D - for their 6 spot because Dermott may need more support than Harpur if Harpur does not show signs of the player he was a few years ago. Hyman Tavares Marner Jonsson Matthews Nylander Petan Spezza Kapanen Moore Kerfoot Shore I like that lineup more than the one they just lost in the 1st round with - perhaps with the exception of lacking such a veteran stabilizing presence of Hainsey.

PistolPete13 Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Now that Kadri is no longer a Laff, it will be a whole new ballgame for him with player safety. Colorado is getting a guy with too many prior bad acts. I don’t expect it to end well for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they would have 7 days to gut all of their depth and fit him in. And I guarantee no teams would be doing them favours. It would be glorious. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The equivalent trade from us would have been Sutter, a young D not making much, and a pick?? Oh well. Just hope barrie does not sign with TO. Kadri is much much much much better than Sutter. Bo would be the closer equivalent. Man our fan base. I would say no wonder people are okay with Benning again but blue dragon would or Robb zepp will make some lame comment.

*Buzzsaw* Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 (edited) Surprised the Leafs were able to pull this off... I guess Colorado was gunshy about paying big money for Barrie next year in free agency. This is a important upgrade to the Leafs Blueline. Kadri is a scumbag but a more important player for the Leafs than most realize... when he was suspended, the Leafs energy in the series against Boston died.

*Buzzsaw* Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Leafs traded the wrong player... they should have put Nylander on the block. Kadri is one of the few Leafs who can play with grit. But I bet the Leafs management do not want to waste that huge Nylander signing bonus by trading him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too. I think Sakic really wanted Kadri though. He’s on a 4.5 mil contract for three seasons. Plus he’s a good centre to play behind Mackinnon. Maybe Nylander gets traded for a checking centre? Cici and Kerfoot are salary arbitration guys who are looking at 5 and 4 million dollar awards. Cam the Leafs afford that, or do they walk from both those guys?

If you’re Sakic, do you want Kadri or Nylander? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
