Nucker 67 Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 We don't know what the deal is, if there's even a deal It might not be Garland or Motte going to TOR, maybe it will be Halak and Schenn. I'm guessing that if TOR is giving away a RD, they'll want one back, and they really want Schenn. They also need experienced goaltending. Would you do Halak and Schenn for Liljegren and a 2nd?

Nope but I’d do Halak for Liljegren. No way we should be trading Schenn. He’s the only really physical player we have and has been great for us. With our cap situation we need his cheap contract for the top 4. Why do we wanna make the team softer too? 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He skates well but is soft as tissue, and about as dumb as single ply. No. Only reason he's in the Leaf lineup is because of cap and their lack of depth. Just No. Well that and the fact Toronto doesn't care whether or not their defencemen can play defence, as illustrated by keeping AHL trash like Rielly and Sandin in the lineup.

Put Liljegren with Boudreau for a month and he could surprise you. Neither Hunt not Liljegren are even close to being legit NHL quality players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schenn is an actual NHL quality player, so of course not. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also really like Schenn, so I would prefer to not trade him. I don't think TOR accepts Poolman though.

I've followed this player quite closely since Lamarillo walked through the draft floor with the cat swallowed the canary grin. Liljigren fell in the draft and Leafs nation thought this was a steal. I admit I hate the Leafs, so I've watched this closely. He was in the minors as long as possible, mostly because he couldn't be trusted in the NHL. He came to the age where it's play him with the big club, or it's waivers. He's only playing because of cap, lack of depth, waivers. He isn't even that great offensively and people assume because he's smallish, he must be offensive. He's a mess. Would way rather see Rathbone in his place, not even close between the two imho. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halak for Liljegren sounds good to me I dont think they can take Halak due to cap issues. The main reason they are moving Liljegren is they likely cant afford to resign both Sandin and Lilj who are both RFA. Kase is also an RFA, Toronto does not have alot coming off the books this season.

Only way we should be doing a deal with them is if we can dump some cap in the process. Trading Dickinson would give us money to re-sign Motte.

Earlier in the season you had a point. While Hunt still has flaws I don't think anyone watching the recent games can argue he's fine as a bottom pairing D. Schenn is good but not part of our contender, if laffs takes on halaks bonus then halak + schenn for TL and a pick is a trade I'd do anytime, maybe even without the pick. Gamble on upside on TL is worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see no need to trade Schenn. Great depth D, that is signed for cheap this year and next. Quinn loves him and he adds snarl and cup experience. I would rather keep Schenn. If a second round pick was offered up, I may be talked out of my opinion, but I love having a player that loves to be a Canuck. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are probably looking for cap hits under a million if they are under contract next season too. Leafs in a world of cap hurt until LTIR kicks in.

Poolman doesn’t add value to that trade (is probably a negative) so I would be happy to take away the 2nd and just have the cap space back as our return if they took the Poolman contract.

There are new holes in my drywall. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t sound like they are desperate here. You can find reports earlier in the year under JR stating we are interested in Liljegren. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s just Leafs kool aide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
