So after watching the home and home against ottawa, we have a lot of things to be happy about. One concern tho is our depth (We don't have any lol) . Aside from maybe rychel kapanen the two sweeds and maybe another forward or two we are weak. Here's what I think should happen.

If the leafs are barley hanging on to a playoff spot come the deadline:

Toronto
JVR
Leivo maybe Rychel instead

Nashville
1st in 2018
V. Kamenev (c) prospect 21 yrs old
J. Dougherty (rd) prospect 21 yrs old
Colorado's 4th (Owned By Nashville)

Toronto
Komerov

To

Anahime
2nd round pick 2018
Maybe 3rd if he's playing well

Replacements
Kapanen
Rychel/ bracco if we lose Rychel to Nashville

Off season

Leafs
1st 2018
1st 2018 (nashville)
+ maybe a prospect depending on where in the top 5 They Trade For most likely rychel or leivo who ever doesn't go to Nash.

For

Top 5 pick + maybe a 3rd round but probably not.

Ps this trade doesn't happen if leafs are out of the playoffs. I'd rather a top 10-15 pick plus a 20range pick than a top 5. Hunter and Dubis will find sleepers.

So you're saying you watched the games and still consider Rychel as depth for the leafs? Shows you don't watch your hockey and pretend like you know your stuff. What about Dermott or Grundstrom? They'll both be on the team by the end of next year. Learn your hockey. By the way, the trades are stupid.

Lol @marquesmen someone is a little butt hurt by my post. Just thought I'd get some trade talk going here. Let me break it down for you tho. Sorry btw I should have emphasised maybe since you might have missed that before I named rychel. But yes there's a chance he could be depth. He's only 22 and is a big guy. Could see him playing on the 4th line (POSSIBLY) in the future, or as a call up this year toward the end of the season if we get into injury trouble. With regards to dermott sorry I missed him, didn't stand out to me. Although I know babs pointed him out in the presser. You seem to be very broad in your criticism and just kinda point out things that I didn't emphasise, but have been in the media. You should start your own site with all this original and insitful information. As for Grundstrom, I was impressed. Showed some grit and a little skill but nothing special. I think there are a couple guys in that position which is why I didn't name anyone but said "maybe one or two other forwards. "

Also please explain why my trades are stupid. I'd like to know how they could be improved by someone of your hockey IQ, or why they shouldn't happen. Considering I said they would be an option if the leafs are not in a position to go deep or even make the playoffs.

Looking forward to another insightful reply.
