Leafs Trade Rumors

Here is a hall trade for of it even though it should never happen and it is not necessary.

Tor: Hall

Njd; nylander, kapanen, sandin,2nd

This is a very hefty price for a single player who would potentially only be a rental for this season. Though I would never want this to happen, the price that would have to be given up is the only way new jeresy could possibly accept this.

Are you kidding me? Jersey would take far, far, far less for Taylor Hall. He is a rental. If someone offered Jersey Nylander their GM would laugh for years to come and accept immediately. I think some people are confusing Taylor Hall with Connor Mcdavid. Yes hall is a former MVP. No Hall is not a top 10 player in the league right now.

Blockbuster Trade Rumor

To the New Jersey Devils:

Kasperi Kapenen, Jake Muzzin, Cody Ceci, Timothy Lilejgren, Jeremiah Bracco and a 2nd Rd pick in 2020.

To the Toronto Maple Leafs:

Taylor Hall and Damon Severson

Love to have both hall and severson on the leafs. theyd fit the leafs so well

Muzzin is the only problem with this deal. don't want to lose him.

Not sure about this one. Really on the fence which I guess is the sign of a good prop lol. Severson is on a good contract for awhile more and obviously a player we would all be happy with but Hall is a rental. Leafs cannot afford him unless they ship out Marner and sign Hall after this season. I think I would actually pull the trigger on this if they would take something other than Muzzin. Maybe Trevor Moore and a 2nd?

This trade makes the leafs the best team I know of for this year. It also gives someone who plays RHD for a few more years locked up which the leafs have none of. After this year if Hall walks it's pretty whatever since the hope is the former mvp brings us a cup.

What do Leafs give up: 3RW (Kapanen), 2LHD UFA (Muzzin), 2RHD UFA (Ceci), picks/ prospects.

What do Leafs gain: 1LW UFA (Hall), 2RHD (Severson)

So, I’m going to say Severson ~ Kapanen, and the rest ~ Hall.

First off, Leafs say no. Hall is too much for a rental and doesn’t really improve us much more than the superstar studded lineup we already got. Severson is a second line defenseman at best. Leafs already got enough of those guys, and trading away our best blue-chip prospect (Liljegren) at that position for a guy who’s upward ceiling has already been reached (Severson) is a bad move. Liljegren might actually be a true 1RHD one day. Can’t say the same about Severson.

20 Oct 2019 02:06:42
@LeafsGm. Yes Defenseman take longer than forwards but saying Lili may one day be a 1RHD is like saying Robertson may one day be MVP. It's a complete unknown at this point. Severson is far, far better than Ceci and signed to a decent contract. Hall may be a rental but as much as I love Hyman, a line of either Mathews, Hall, Nylander or Tavares, Hall, Marner becomes the most dangerous line in hockey. If Muzzin must be included in this deal for it to work then Dermott steps in for Muzzin which is a small downgrade but still a better top 4 than it was before. After this year you still keep severson. After this year you don't keep Ceci or Muzzin (unless they are signed) . The more I think about this deal the better it becomes. After this deal it would be:

Hall Tavares Marner
Johnson Mathews Nylander
Mikheyev Kerfoot Moore
Whoever Babcock plays that night with Goat.

Reilly Severson
Dermott Barrie
Same as 4th line

Hyman gets traded for a prospect and/ or pick. It's a far superior team going forward and now.

Muzzin is our only solid top 4 defensive dman, makes no sense to trade him when we need another top 4 defensive dman. only part of this trade that makes sense to me is something like Kapanen for Severson.

20 Oct 2019 08:24:38
I like it a lot better than the Nylander trade someone posted above. Lol.

Tor: Ekblad,

Fla: sandin, kapanen, 1st

This is a trade that I think will get Toronto over that defensive hump. The cost is hefty but for a superstar like Ekblad coming into the lineup, it will totally revamp their roster. It also adds size to a lineup that could use some. This would not be the only move they should make as they should try to get a guy who can finish their checks and stand up for someone if they get hit.

Lineup

Rielly-Ekblad
Muzzin-barrie
Ceci-marincin.

I love Ekblad he would make toronto have the best top 4 in hockey. Unfortuetly he costs 7-8 million and with what was moved out in this deal isn't enough. i also don't think florida would want kapanen as forward going back. Theyd want much more than his talent level. leafs don't have a true 1st rounder until 2022.

Other than those points Ekblad is a hell of a target if those points can be worked on.

20 Oct 2019 00:03:19
Can you imagine?

Fairy tales can come true, they can happen to you.

I love Ekblad. If we had him on the team, that would be two “exceptional players”. Then maybe we can pull a fast one with NYR and get Day. All sudden Leafs have entered “Exceptional Team” status.

20 Oct 2019 00:28:11
Can you imagine? Ekblad for Kapanen and a couple guys not even in the nhl? I would pack all them up and kiss them all good bye. Tell them their time in Toronto was wknderful. They could never be replaced. Which is why we are trading them for Ekblad. He’s way better. He doesn’t replace those dead weight klingons. He actually makes the team better. Imagine that?

Ekblad and his history of concussions is not an issue anymore. I always say, after major injury like that, especially head trauma, give them two to three years. It looks like Ekblad passes the test. An “exceptional player”, he actually really did live up to that status (as did Tavares) . Would love to have Ekblad on the team, and if all it took was what you are offering here, it’s a no-brainer.

And I love his contract too btw. Lol.

TOR- Rasmus sandin

STL- Sandford 1st rnd pick.

18 Oct 2019 22:02:50
Not bad value but leafs don't need another winger. they have so many of them just waiting for their shot. rather keep giving moore the opportunities than dealing for sanford and moore not getting his chances at this moment.

18 Oct 2019 22:26:55
Nice trade suggestions👍!

19 Oct 2019 09:50:38
Rather keep Sandin. He’s the only a-prospect on LHD we got. We have several blue chip RHD, but after Sandin, talent level on LHD drops a fair bit.

19 Oct 2019 11:04:31
Moore is looking great so far this year. It’s always good to see the depth guys step up when the top line guys aren’t doing well. Now that Tavares is injured, we need these guys to continue playing standout hockey. This is Moore’s chance to shine. I hope he knocks it out. He might eventually be considered to replace Hyman if something happens and Hyman is no longer a Leaf (expansion draft, for example) .
