Tor; jarnkrok, Timmins, 1st

Car: pesce.

ARENSP

1.) 18 Sep 2023 15:04:40
I think you're looking at more for Pesce.


2.) 18 Sep 2023 15:36:16
Nice prop. Not bad. I think Carolina would rather move Skjei though.


3.) 20 Sep 2023 01:08:52
I think Hurricanes are looking for more top 6 offense if they trade Pesce.
Neither Jarnkrok nor Timmins give them that.
Plus the 1st round pick will be a very late selection in June 2024 and will not play for the team for another 3 - 4 years.
Can’t see Waddell being moved by this offer.


 

 

03 Jul 2023 13:48:00
Bertuzzi Mathews knies
Domi Tavares marner
Jankrok kampf Lafferty
Reaves holmberg ?

Reilly Mccabe
Brodie klingberg
Giordano Liljgren

Woll
Samsonov


This will be the line up in addition to who ever they get for nylander. A bit toigher lineup.

ARENSP

1.) 04 Jul 2023 01:34:18
Knies is a rookie left wing.
Why put him at right wing on the 1st line and set him up for possible failure?
For the past 2 years Keefe has been trying to shoehorn Kampf into the 3rd line center slot and it has been an abject disaster.
Kampf is at best a 4th line center.


 

 

28 Mar 2023 16:40:25
Playoff line up

Jarnkrok Mathews Bunting
Kerfoot Tavares Marner
Lafferty O'Reilly Nylander
Aston-reese kampf accari

Reilly Brodie
Giordano Mccabe
Gustavson schenn

Samsonov
Woll

What do ypu gguys think?

ARENSP

1.) 29 Mar 2023 00:58:22
I have always felt that playing Nylander on the 3rd line is a waste of his talents.
Plus, Matthews should be playing with an elite winger not two, 3rd line players.
I am not sold on Gustafsson so I would prefer to see McCabe at LHD with Holl or Schenn and Giordano with Liljegren which has been a very good pairing for the Leafs in the regular season.
Yes, I know, Liljegren has been less than stellar lately but Giordano has the ability to fix that.


2.) 29 Mar 2023 14:22:40
McCabe dosen't crack the starting lineup?


3.) 30 Mar 2023 12:15:48
I get the 3 line idea, but I would do it differently.
My starting lineup atm would be.

Jarnkrok Matthews Marner
Bunting Tavares Nylander
Lafferty O'Reilly Acciari
Aston-reese Kampf Kerfoot

Rielly Brodie
McCabe Holl
Gio Schenn

Samsonov
Murray.


4.) 30 Mar 2023 17:05:18
@RLF that's the 3 lines I've wanted since the TDL as well.

I'm more on board with stacking the top 6 against Boston, as I think there's a better chance Mathews line and Bergeron line cancel eachother out.

I'd like to see 3 lines grind down Tampa. They aren't the youngest team and they've played a tonne of hockey in the past 3 years.


5.) 30 Mar 2023 18:29:59
I really like when the leafs run 7 defenceman and kinda put their forward lines in a blender. Makes it extremely hard to defend against and gives your big guy more playing time. Also keeps your defenceman fresh and can ride the hot hand/ s.

Jarnkrok Mathews Nylander
Bunting Tavares Marner
Lafferty O'Reilly Acciari
Kampf Aston-Reese

Take your pick on Lafferty or Kerfoot. I think Lafferty brings more to the table come playoffs. I also think Mathews brings the most out of Nylander the same way Marner does Tavares.


6.) 30 Mar 2023 22:36:44
Jarnkrok Matthews marner
Tavares O’reilly nylander
Bunting accari lafferty
Kerfoot kampf zar

Brodie McCabe
Gio holl
Reilly schenn

I’d try this for game 1 that top line has been driving the offence of late Tavares was better on the wing imo and the third line being an energy line as for the defence I’ve like McCabe so far and it seems like keefe is gonna stick with him and Brodie gio holl have been ok but we have seen them elevate their game and Reilly schenn round it out for me Reilly should be sheltered in the d zone and I think the leafs need schenns physical play schenn plays at home liljgren plays on the road. I would say knies may not play but if they need some offence he might draw in.


7.) 01 Apr 2023 10:22:14
Swap Marner and Nylander and I'm fully on board. The game/ s of Tavares O'Reilly and Marner together looked amazing. O'Reilly hat trick if I'm not mistaken.


8.) 02 Apr 2023 03:59:08
What's with the Bunting hate all of a sudden?

He was better than Hyman a few months ago and now we all say he's bottom 6?

Fla: Radko Gudas



To
Toronto: pierre engvall.

ARENSP

1.) 28 Nov 2022 02:10:21
I don't see anyone, giving you anything, for Engvall or Kerfoot right now.


2.) 28 Nov 2022 12:41:46
I don't think Kerfoot and Engvall have no value, it just isn't as much as it was previously. I just don't see where FLA would need Engvall over Gudas atm. I'm sure they would love to move Hornqvist, but I'd rather have Engvall, especially considering cap hits.


3.) 28 Nov 2022 18:04:04
@RLF what do you see as value for them?

I can't see anything beyond a 5th.


4.) 28 Nov 2022 18:59:09
The problem is that Florida are looking to activate duclair to their active roster. So they need to bring back an ahl level return, pick or waiver exempt prospect.


5.) 29 Nov 2022 16:28:31
@LL. There value is in a trade for an existing contract. imo
For a pick, the other team also has to eat the contract and cap hit. I would look to trade them for players that are underutilized where that team has depth in that position. Why I said STL for Mikkola. Also why I throw Trenin out there a lot. They won't have much value for a pick alone.


 

 

09 Oct 2022 21:56:32
Looks like engvall will be od man out.

Tor: Engvall

Ari: 6th

Bunting Matthews Marner
Malgin Tavares Nylander
Jankrok kampf kerfoot
Kabul aston-reese.

ARENSP

1.) 10 Oct 2022 01:10:48
Bunting - Matthews - Marner
Robertson - Tavares - Nylander
Engvall - Holmberg - Jarnkrok
Aston-Reese - Kampf - Aube-Kuble

Keep Engvall and ship out Kerfoot as Engvall’s cap hit is only $2.25 while Kerfoot is earning $3.5
Holmberg is an NHL rookie but has been playing against professionals for the past two years in the Swedish Elite League.
He has acquitted himself well winning their playoff MVP and according to Keefe has had an excellent camp.

Lafferty gone to Vancouver for a 5th

Simon Benoit, William Lagesson, Maxime Lajoie, Kyle Clifford and Dylan Gambrell on waivers.

So it looks like:

Bertuzzi Matthews Marner
Domi Tavares nylander
Knies Minten Jarnkrok
Holmberg kampf Reaves

Reilly Brodie
Mccabe klingberg
Giordano Liljgren

Samsonov
Woll.

ARENSP

1.) 08 Oct 2023 23:35:57
Unless they sign Gregor. then Holmberg probly gets sent down. on another note. good thing Dubas traded for Lafferty. only cost us a 2nd round pick. but hey. we get a 5th back. that makes sense. thanks Harry Potter.


2.) 09 Oct 2023 02:48:44
@Loxley

I would have kept Lafferty. I know he was overhyped around these parts, but he's the perfect bottom 6 forward for this team.

I'm expecting the PK to be an absolute mess without a couple guys. Especially if Mathews gets hurt.

The one thing I will say against Tre, is Klingberg. I understand the desperation in signing a RHD, but I would have rather put Marner at RHD than pay that for Klingberg.

The second best PP in the league doesn't need a pure puck moving, PP specialist, defenceman.


3.) 09 Oct 2023 16:26:12
LL. I was hoping they could have kept Lafferty as well. I thought he brought a lot to the team for the bottom 6.sad that we did not even have enough cap space to bring him backm. if only Reeves had signed for a little less. at least we get to keep jarnkrok (for now) .

As for klingberg. I still am not a fan. dunno what Tre was thinking. was it a panic move cause he could not sign some if the grittier guys that were available. we did not need klingberg.


4.) 09 Oct 2023 18:35:05
I think Klingberg was signed hoping they could catch a motivated guy willing to do anything to prove himself, even work on his defensive play. I didn't like the signing either, but when you consider Leafs playoff problems have been a lack of scoring on many nights and if they think Klingberg will help that and be motivated to play himself into one last good contract with a team for next season, I can see the logic. It's a pretty big swing that could be just terrible or end up a decent move.


5.) 09 Oct 2023 19:02:27
@RLF scoring from the back end has been an issue for a long time, but to me, the biggest issue was stopping the cycle. FLA just kept grinding the D down.

I would have kept Holl over Klingberg (not for what Holl signed for) .


6.) 09 Oct 2023 19:31:58
@LL. All good points. Holl cost what Holl cost. Is what it is. I don't like the Klingberg signing, just looking for some perspective from Tree and companies side.


7.) 09 Oct 2023 19:59:39
@ RLF. i get your reasoning for signing Klingberg. but when looking at the overall D it just looks bad. Gio good bless him was as slow as molases in the playoffs. Liljegren seems stuck as far as growing and Brodie also did not have his best year. had he found a way to balance out Rielly and klingberg with gritty playoff grinders it might be ok. but all we have is McCabe. hopefully after having gone through a full training camp he will look better but that's a lot to put on 1 guy.


8.) 09 Oct 2023 20:19:54
LL&Loxley. I agree. I would rather have a big bodied defensive RD. Just trying to look at what Tree might be thinking.


9.) 09 Oct 2023 23:23:18
@RLF I agree with the reasoning behind Klingberg in Tre's mind. He had to do something, and clearly no one wanted to play here.


 

 

06 Oct 2023 10:53:37
Looks like this is our starting roster come Wednesday

Bertuzzi Mathews marner
Domi Tavares Nylander
Jarnkrok minten knies
Holmberg kampf Reaves

Reilly Brodie
Mccabe Benoit
Giordano Liljgren

Samsonov
Woll


That leaves Lafferty, gregor (walks), gambrell, Robertson, all going to ahl or waivers.

ARENSP

1.) 06 Oct 2023 15:26:02
I don’t think that will be it. I still think Lafferty will make this team over Holmberg. Still believe they will trade Jarnkrok to help the cap and make room for Lafferty and Gregor to make the team. Robertson still isn’t ready, he has to go back to Mackins island for another year of training.


2.) 06 Oct 2023 15:59:46
@ Clarky17.HOLLY MACKINNAW. LOL.


3.) 06 Oct 2023 16:47:06
@Loxley and Clarky. Robertson going to the minors will like being hit with a Big Mackin the face for DM.

So, trev isn't going to do anything else it looks like.

Bertuzzi Mathews knies
Nylander Tavares marner
Lafferty domi jarnkrok
Reaves kampf holmberg

Reilly Mccabe
Brodie klingberg
Giordano Liljgren

Woll
Samsonov

Not sure what to do about the cap. Solid lineup though. What do you guys think?

ARENSP

1.) 13 Aug 2023 13:44:31
I don't think it looks too bad. The D is a concern and I would have different lines and D pairings, but if we start the year with this lineup, so be it.

Knies Matthews Marner
Bertuzzi JT Nylander
Domi Kampf Jarnkrok
Lafferty Gambrell Reaves
McMann

Rielly Brodie
McCabe Liljegren
Gio Klingberg
Timmins

Samsonov
Woll

The problem is, The Leafs can't start with this lineup as they are still about $2M over the Cap.


2.) 13 Aug 2023 15:16:26
@RLF Agreed, they can only have a 20 man roster with the players they have now. So more than likely Timmins & possibly McMann or Gambrell would be lost to waivers.

I would keep D the same, but put Domi at 3C even though Tre said he would be a winger. Domi has played more C in his career than wing.

Bertuzzi Matthews Nylander
Knies Tavares Marner
McMann Domi Jarnkrok
Lafferty Kampf Reaves

Rielly Brodie
McCabe Lily
Gio Klingberg

Samsonov
Woll.


3.) 13 Aug 2023 18:15:55
@Tags. I had thought about Domi at centre as well. The issue is that Domi isn't really a very good centreman. Up until recently, he struggled on the dot. He also isn't very physical, he doesn't block a lot of shots and he isn't very big. 3rd line is usually a defensively responsible line and I would worry about Domi as my 3C, but not worry as much on the wing. He may make the top 6 as a winger.
Maybe they see McMann and Knies on the wings with Kampf down the middle. Who knows.


4.) 13 Aug 2023 19:10:59
@RLF you're right, who knows. Your guess is as good as mine.
I'd like the 3rd line to be a sheltered scoring line and maybe they can switch Lafferty and McMann so they have 2 good defensive players with Domi, who can both play offensively as well.
I don't think the 3rd and 4th lines will be set-in stone throughout the game/ season. I'm sure Keefe will interchange lines depending on situation.
I understand the addition of Reaves, but he really doesn't fit with the
types of players we have.
An ideal defensive line easily should be:
Lafferty Kampf Jarnkrok
Reaves on this line makes most sense to me
McMann Lafferty Reaves.

The way Liljgren is playing i think he would bring in a huge return. Way better than myers. Schenn as the add in?
They could get him for a 4th at the trade deadline.
