So it seems that you all like Sandin and Llyigren now.

I think you are all barking up the wrong tree with these two.

Neither can box out in front of the net, too small, neither can throw a hard hit in their own end.
And both play typical European style of hockey checking with their sticks not hitting the body.

Teams know that Toronto is soft and hate to get hit. It is Dubas's fault because he believes skill will win over grit and toughness.

WRONG!

IF TORONTO HAS ANY HOPE OF WINNING IN THE POST SEASON DUBAS NEEDS TO CHANGE HIS TEAM'S BOTTOM SIX AND ADD TOUGHNESS TO THE DEFENCE.

TRADES TO BE CONSIDERED,

Toronto trades Kerfoot, Holl, Holmberg and a 1st in 2023
To
Vancouver for Bo Horvat and Schenn

Toronto trades Engvall, Malgin
To
Arizona for Bjudstad

Toronto trades Sandin
To
Los Angeles kings for Matt Roy

Toronto signs Matthew Knives to a Contract in March



Playoff Line up

Knives Matthews Nylander
Jarnkrok Tavares Marner
Bunting Horvat Steeves
Bjudstad Kampf Austin-Reese

Rielly Roy
Brodie Schenn
Giordano Timmons
Llyigren Benn

Muzzin out for good!

@Parkgardens,

Your rant loses it’s merit every time you misspell Knies, there is no v and never has been a v.

Now to your trades:

While I like Horvat he is simply too expensive. Schenn, though, adds toughness which is part of your point.

I would try to acquire Bjugstadt as well but I’m not unpleased with Engvall’s game of late. So I’d look to replace him with someone else.

I’m prepared to give Sandin his due and willing to continue with him. Matt Roy is a bigger defensive Dman that would help and LAK would probably trade him if they had anyone else that could defend. Their GAA is awful.

And I would do the Kerfoot/ Domi trade.

Well Rsears, sorry for the misspelling it was late.
Check your spelling on Bjugstat!

You will see in April when they play Boston or Tampa how they will be pushed and pounded into the boards, and cry that they have no room to move.
Another first round exit coming!

Yes we both spelled his name incorrectly…lol

It perhaps was someone else who has added the v to Knies on several occasions.

I agree wholeheartedly on needing more size and physicality?

Why not just offer Vancouver a 2nd or a 3rd for Schenn and leave it at that.

Offer them our 3rd from Ottawa for Schenn, I believe that's fair.
