Schenn is worth more to Van than to anyone else On the Leafs or Coilers he's a top 4. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it is those teams from whom we should get a better return for Schenn. My #1 preference would be to TBL in exchange for Foote. I would also be happy with a 2nd round pick. Not sure I want to send him anywhere unless the return is in that ballpark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

combover Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 29 minutes ago, BigTramFan said: Yeah I would think so too. Still a chance Smith is traded to VAN in order to clear his cap for Gav to join the Bruins though. What's that worth? A late 3rd round pick? Fine by me as long as we have enough cap space to sign Livingstone at the end of the season... (And so then, as per Alf's balls...Schenn for Foote) Yeah that would be great especially if we can ship smith out before he lands with max salary retained to get the best return.

We would need to retain on Myers and take back someone like Kerfoot. Rather get a really good asset if we are giving up Schenn. Not just use him to move Myers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'd be sweet but not sure if any contending team wants Smith (even at 50%, $1.55m). He has only scored 0.23809524 pts per game this season (am I in the right thread?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not just use him to move Myers. if we are giving up Schenn I would only do it to get rid of Myers or OEL. Keep Schenn and buyout Myers or OEL.

What kind of trade leverage do you think Schenn has? He doesn't have the value to even move Myers, let alone OEL. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 If we take Smith's expiring contract and get a 2nd in exchange for Schenn and he wants to sign back later, that's a win for sure. Hopefully we do this rumored move. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no I wouldn't use Schenn to get rid of Myers. Keep Schenn or trade him for a decent asset. Not use him as a sweetener. A buy out on Myers makes his cap hit $5.33m next season, so not worth a buy out to just save $667k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d rather have Myers cap hit without him on our roster to be honest. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
