Leafs trade Jvr komarov

Washington trade 2018 1st round pick 2019 second round pick

Leafs trade Bozak and 4 round pick 2018

Pittsburgh 1st rounder 2018

Leafs promote rychel kapanan and Leivo

Who impresses at camp on defence

Liljegren
Dermott
Neilsen
Rosen
Borgman

I think two of those make leafs that's why they haven't signed polak or at least they are waiting to see what they have

Leafs rebuild USA Mona Lisa they did get lucky landing at number one for Matthews but the broth of talent is work of art

Dermott has a shot, maybe even Nielsen depending on how his camp goes. If Liljegren makes it out of camp he will need to play with someone like Hainsey, probably looking at
Rielly Carrick
Gards Zaitsev
Hainsey Liljegren

I don't really see that happening but it's possible. Otherwise it could be.

Rielly Hainsey
Gards Zaitsev
Dermott Carrick

That's my opinion anyways, a lot is left to be resolved with camp though.

Don't forget Toronto rookies plays the Habs rookies tonight!

David, so that turns out to have three 1st rounders for this coming year's draft. I would use two 1st rounders to trade up for drafting Rasmus Dahlin. That's if leafs make it deep in playoffs, if leafs didn't make the playoffs and cannot draft him, I'd give 1st round plus 2nd round and 6th round to draft Dahlin.

I want to see in a year or two who was best defencemen in draft I say it will be liljegren.

Dahlin will probably go first and you'll probably have to trade Matthews for that pick.

Dear Austin Matthews

Leafs don't have to draft Dahlin they will probably be in the 20s when they draft and even if they had two extra first rounders to grab number 1 is next to impossible. Hunter understands draft talent so it's all about keeping great players on entry level contracts to complement your expensive pieces.

If Matthews manner and nylader take a pick step this year and kafir and brown keep their numbers up look out NHL. Kapanan Leivo and rychel can fill in for Jvr Bozak and Karlamov. Nyander starts playing second centre mid season big upgrade over Bozak. kapanan could then play on your top 6 Leivo top 9 and rychel replaces Karlamov.

Leafs just seem to have cheaper players to fill in for mid range players that contracts are ending this leaf team is set up to be a powerhouse for a very long time it's Quite amazing to see what shanahan Lou and Babcock have done there has never been a blueprint like this since salary cap started. The leafs have had Ben done a better job than Chicago fantastic to watch this unfold.

The Leafs have drafted and have an abundant of D prospects. They do not need to just keep drafting D, they need to see who will make it and trade excessive good quality prospects and/ or players like Gardiner to create room eventually.

The Leafs now can draft the best player available, wherever they are drafting or trade the pick for quality young talent!

Based on last years Corsi numbers, Gardiner and Carrick played best when paired together. 54.8%. That is elite territory. Seem to complement each other very well. Maybe affected a bit by usage and zone starts, but still very good numbers. Suggested pairings;
Rielly - Hainsey
Gardiner - Carrick
? - Zaitsez

Agree with David and Buds. If the leafs pick up extra 1st picks for Bozak and JVR use them to get the best player available. Their defensive prospect pool has been nicely stocked and multiple 1st round picks increases your odds of getting a high quality complimentary piece which the Leafs will need. Players like Hyman and Brown that fill out your roster without breaking the bank. Go Mark Hunter.

Yes, according to Tanner. sorry, I mean't Corsi stats, Carrick and Gardiner played elite level together. I don't think Carrick saw as many minutes as the season progressed? Did he play in the top four during the playoffs? It's hard to gauge with Tanner who has more than once, proclaimed he would make a better GM than some already in the NHL.
