Unless that D man is someone like Ekblad then there’s no way we’re trading him. Hes key to our offense and a core player. He would be very tough to replace.

DownUndaCanuck Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 JBs got to be careful this offseason, lots of tempting UFAs but we're just about to finally be rid of our giant contracts, let's not add anymore. Hyman's been great but his numbers will be much less on our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whorvat Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Seems like a case of these guys reporting that water is wet. Of course almost any player can be had, its at what cost? Boeser ain't going anywhere for less than a stud RH defenseman. Even then, its plugging one hole while creating another 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way to go! It was meant to be dumb/sarcastic. But I'm sure something a Leafs fan would put together. In all honesty though, I'm starting to lose faith that this management group has what it takes to turn it around. Hopefully I'm wrong, that this year was a blip and not last year.

Popular Post mll Posted July 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2021 31 minutes ago, Bertuzzipunch said: Custance listed 25 players who could change address this off-season. Boeser made the list but his probability was qualified as low. Their reasoning to have him on that list of 25 is because of the inordinate amount of inefficient contracts on the team. That just seems like a stupid justification when those inefficient contracts will be off the books once his contract is up. Roussel, Beagle, Holtby, Luongo etc are off the books next season when Boeser is due a new contract. Willing to move Boeser for a young top pairing D is understandable but not if it's for cap reasons like they are implying: "That would be a difficult piece to lose as a result of poor cap management." 1 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollumpus Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 (Without having read much/any of the previous postings here) Unless Hyman has expressed a deep desire to play for the Canucks, I'm not so sure that I would pursue him, and certainly not do something like trade for his rights just so the team could get him for a week or so before he moves to free agent status. Otherwise, I guess he would be an okay top-9/middle-6 kind of guy, fairly physical, gets some points and can play either wing. If he's looking for a big payday (and why wouldn't he?), I don't believe the team can afford him atm. regards, G. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gollumpus Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 58 minutes ago, Bertuzzipunch said: I don't see the connection between the Leafs wanting to trade the signing rights for Hyman, and the speculation that the Canucks would be okay with trading Boeser. Assuming the Canucks wanted to trade Boeser, do the Leafs really have what the Canucks want/need (personally, I'd be inclined to trade Boeser to Tamp Bay for one of their young RD)? And if there was a trade with the Leafs, Hyman's rights would be nothing more than a throw-in of little to no value... something like, if Hyman signed here (for whatever), the Leafs would get a 7th round pick. regards, G.

ilduce39 Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Oh god. So many dramatic takes on social media over this… Leafs media farts out a rumour and the Canuck Twitter/blogosphere runs to sniff it all up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 6 hours ago, rekker said: Big mistake by the Leafs letting this happen. Trade Nylander to open up some cap for a real player like Hyman. Or even the unspeakable. Trade AM. Trade AM for a decent young center plus, plus, plus. They would be better off with a home run return for AM. He can shoot, but is easily one of the more overhyped players in the NHL imho. Nylander and Spezza were the 2 who decided to play in the playoffs this year, it would be a mistake moving Nylander I think, they have to move one of the big 3 imo, those 3 are taking up way too much cap space, they have to move 1 of them I believe.

JM_ Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 So... back to Hyman. If he was capable of being an effective 3C I can see the logic behind going after him. He would bring a physical element Sutter didn't. Maybe they're thinking Hoglander-Hyman-Podkolzin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
