Toronto trades: Andreas Johnsson, Jeremy Bracco and a third

Lighting trade: Blake Coleman, and a second round pick

Blake Coleman is a guy that’s like a Kapanen. He’s really fast and is similar to Kapanen and we are going to have that missing spot in the lineup. Also he’s a gritty player and is a decently big body and he’s shows that he can play at the highest level with the best players in the world. The day I knew he was legit was when he scored a hat trick goal against Toronto and he’s been a great. If you put him on a line with Matthews or Tavares it would be a good fit for him so if Toronto would be able to make a deal for him to replace Kapanen in that spot.

I have a feeling that this is Tanner's newest offering of the day being regurgitated here again.


2.) 31 Aug 2020 15:39:47
No chance the lighting trade Coleman for that package after giving up Foote and a 1st.


3.) 31 Aug 2020 15:49:30
I was surprised they gave up Foote. Along with his brother, they were expected to be the future of the team. That's going to be a trade I think they regret in a couple years if they don't win the cup with Coleman.


4.) 31 Aug 2020 16:39:37
Nobody wants bracco.


5.) 31 Aug 2020 18:49:21
Guess I can skip your article lol. No sane person thinks TB says yes.


6.) 31 Aug 2020 20:33:20
Nope. Not a Tanner trade. A MLHS trade instead. Lol.

Toronto trades: Nic Petan, Kenny Agostino
Detroit trades: Brendan Perlini.

AdamMitro1634

1.) 29 Aug 2020 14:09:28
Eh why not right.


2.) 29 Aug 2020 14:09:47
Petan and Agostino are both probably better players than Perlini is at this point. Better off giving them Bracco, who obviously wants out. At least Petan and Agostino are fine with their roles on the team.


3.) 29 Aug 2020 14:30:51
Should have known this was a Tanner suggestion. Lol. It makes no sense.


4.) 29 Aug 2020 23:09:09
I just found this article. Lmao. He just copy pastes everything he finds here and calls it "his opinion"

A defencemen that I keep hearing that the Maple Leafs should trade for is Ryan Pulock from the Islanders. I don’t know much about him but what I do know is that he’s a two way defender, he can play both on the offensive and defensive side. His plus/ minus has been great for the last two seasons. He would be great in a line with Jake Muzzin or Morgan Rielly. The only downside is that Pulock is getting older in age and he’ll be an RFA this season so if we can find a way to maybe trade for him then I would do it. I would do this trade. It might not be a great trade but it would help us in defence.

NYI receives: Rights to Tyson Barrie, Alex Kerfoot and a 2021 2nd round pick

TOR receives: Ryan Pulock, Derrick Brassard and a 2020 third round pick.

AdamMitro1634

1.) 23 Aug 2020 14:55:36
Pulock would be an ideal player. 1RHD, defensively responsible. Not a superstar, but very good at what he does. The right age and the right price.

Pulock is representative of everything Leafs need for a 1RHD. The question is: "what's it going to cost? ". I don't think the package here is near enough. Especially those worthless Barrie rights.


2.) 23 Aug 2020 15:02:59
Dude he is in his prime, he is only 24 I think. With suggestions on here to trade for guys like Manson and even myself suggesting Petry, Pulock seems like a super young player lol. But ya trading for him would be good, but it would likely cost the leafs Nylander.


3.) 23 Aug 2020 17:45:43
the downside is his age? he's 25.a year younger than Rielly. he is a perfect D and doubt they would trade him. But if they would it would take a lot to make this deal. he will be looking at getting at least 6mil. Iles also have Barzall to resign so a package from leafs would have to include Marner or Nylander and possbly have to include a bad contract back from the isles. someone like Bailey. if we are dealing with the Isles another player we should try to get is Beuvelier. plays with heart and has been good so far in playoffs.


4.) 23 Aug 2020 19:39:44
I've posted before about targeting Pulock for awhile to compliment Rielly. He's and RFA and due a new deal. The NYI are deep at RHD. Nylander for Pulock is a very reasonable trade. The Leafs will likely have to sign him to a comparable deal that McAvoy got. 3 years around $4.5M. Nylander is signed for 4 more years. Very reasonable.


5.) 24 Aug 2020 01:50:21
Beauvillier is Barzals bff. Rumor is that he won't sign long term unless Beau is.


 

 

19 Aug 2020 14:07:31
Austin Watson is a name I’m hearing that the Leafs can trade for. I’ve heard that Toronto had offered them Freddie Gauthier and Jeremy Bracco. But Nashville wants Pierre Engvall. Watson make 1.5 million dollars for the next three years and he’s a player that we need. He’s a gritty and physical player that would really help this team out in the future for being that gritty player. His point production isn’t that bad for a guy who’s gritty. He’s had a career high 19 points and that’s not bad for a player playing on a third of fourth line. He’s 6’4, 204 pounds. I wouldn’t mind bringing this player to come play on our team so let’s make the deal happen.

AdamMitro1634

1.) 19 Aug 2020 14:51:24
Wife beater
Ya really tough guy.


2.) 19 Aug 2020 22:34:51
For once I agree with MyPussysHairy.

Watson has substance abuse issues and a predilection towards violence against women. Not a guy you want on your team. Unless you want to have him show Matthews how to escalate from just scaring women to beating them.


3.) 20 Aug 2020 03:59:32
This is exactly the types of players the Leafs need both on the wings and on defence. Any way that Dubas can pull a rabbit out of his ass and get Nashville to take Frederik Gauthier for Austin Watson straight up? The Leafs would need about three more forwards and three more defencemen similar to Austin Watson/ Anthony Cirelli/ Josh Anderson minus the domestic abuse stuff.

Talent Analysis on Austin Watson

Watson is a solid two-way centerman but with the versatility to play the wing and the shutdown role against the opposition's best forwards. He can take over games with his effort and determination. He does all the little things well in order to win hockey games: blocking shots, making the big hit, winning the important face-offs and scoring the timely goals. He has been a consistent scorer at the minor pro level but does not project into a big goal scorer at the NHL level. Watson does the type of things that a team needs to win playoff games and championships though his mobility is a challenge.


 

 

19 Aug 2020 13:56:41
I heard a rumor that the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Nashville Predators are making a trade and involved in it is Austin Watson. He’s a 28 year old forward, making 1.5 million dollars for three more years. And he’s the guy that the Toronto Maple Leafs need as he is a gritty and physical player.

AdamMitro1634

1.) 20 Aug 2020 00:09:09
I think people misunderstand a lot of the time. Gritty is Tkatchuk. Knuckle dragger is Watson. Big distinction.


2.) 20 Aug 2020 04:02:13
No way you get Matthew Tkachuk. You may be able to get Josh Anderson for a package that includes Andreas Johnsson, Jeremy Bracco and a C level prospect or pick.

Luke Fox on Sportsnet said these are defencemen Toronto should pursue to shore up there blue line and I want to see your guys option on who you would pick

1. Alex Pietrangelo
2. Chris Tanev
3. T. J Brodie
4. Travis Hamonic
5. Radko Gudas
6. Zach Bogosian
7. Joel Edmundson
8. Dylan DeMelo
9. Andy Greene
10. Sami Vatanen
Let me know if there is any other options that Luke Fox didn’t mention that you would like to see the leafs get to potentially help there blue line out
My choices would be Pietrangelo, Tanev, Brodie, Hamonic, Gudas, Greene. Comment who you guys pick and like I said add names in the comments on if he missed anyone.

AdamMitro1634

1.) 01 Sep 2020 21:38:02
There's only two names on that list that I would hope Leafs sign. The other guys are all uneventful. Hamonic is effective, but overrated. For the same price, or slightly higher, we should be targeting Brodie.

Brodie should be our single biggest target this offseason if Leafs can't afford Pietrangelo, which we can't unless Dubas completely guts the team (which wouldn't surprise me to see either) .


2.) 01 Sep 2020 21:53:06
I wanted bogosian when he was free. Said from the start Dubas dropped the ball there.

Petro, Brodie, Harmonic are the only ones that really help the team. Gudas would look good as a third pairing guy throwing the body around but he will probably cost to much for what he is.


3.) 02 Sep 2020 15:15:48
Offer sheet Pulock

7 X 6.3

Costs next years 1st and 3rd

Islanders can't sign barzal and pulock with the 9 million they have in cap space. would dubas dare now that matthews and marner can't be offer sheeted

Just a thought here.


 

 

28 Aug 2020 01:57:22
There have been Rumors that Toronto could pursue these players. Chris Tanev, TJ Brodie, Torey Krug, Travis Hamonic, Braden Holtby. This list in my opinion isn’t that bad at all. Chris Tanev and Travis Hamonic can be those two defensive defencemen that we are looking for. Sign them to like a 2-3 year deal and there team will be at least better then the following season that just past and I hope some of these considerations and speculations actually come true because I would really like to see some of these player play on this team and help really benefit them in the long run and help them out in the future when this team wins a cup. The players I’d take are Lehner, Tanev, Brodie and Hamonic. Definitely think they could turn our season and playoff disappointment around and help make a deep run to a cup.

AdamMitro1634

1.) 28 Aug 2020 05:10:54
If you can sign all 4 then yes the team looks far, far better. One of the best in the league. Cap situation dictates you cannot though. Lehner would need to take a massive discount, Brodie blocked a trade once so who knows if he even wants to come and Tanev is made of glass. I don't mind some of the targets but this isn't something that simple.

Big rumour has been Gudas. Probably because he will be cheaper than all of the above.

In my opinion, if Dubas can off load enough salary he signs Petro to a 10x7 or something along those lines. He sees the future of the NHL as having the best top 2 lines and too pairing in the league. Everyone else being filler. I imagine he let's Hyman walk and probably re-signs Reilly if he can at all.

Not sure if I can really crap on his vision of strong link as we haven't actually seen it yet. This play-in was a joke for everyone except 3-4 guys (depending on if you liked Freddy's game) . With Petro in the mix it may have looked different. Without Engvall, Kapanen, Kerfoot and Johnson it would have looked identical. They were all useless. May as well have just had Bracco and Hollowell in there.

Backup plan I think Dubas may actually go after Subban. I'm not a fan of the move but Subban is his type of guy. Another big name guy that moves the puck. I don't think he goes after the small fish like we all like to hope. Brodie, Anderson, Harmonic, Tanev, etc. He's a go big or go home guy and if he isn't willing to trade Marner or Nylander then it means he's doubling down on his vision of hockey for better or for worse. Next year is probably his last chance. If the team completely flops again he's probably gone and a new coach is named as well. Maybe even shanny gone.


2.) 28 Aug 2020 18:52:09
Kadri blocked that trade, not Brodie. But idk if your view on kap kerfoot johnsson engvall is necesarily correct. The defensive play was adequate, a replacement might be a little more likely to give up more chances.

That series we got out goaltended, possibly put coached. Johnsson in for robertson was dumb, the kid was one of like 4 leafs that played with heart.


3.) 28 Aug 2020 19:16:20
Putting Johnson in really got me too. Would have even taken Hyman or Mikheyev out before Robertson. Should have even given Robertson time beside Mathews the way he was playing.


4.) 28 Aug 2020 22:22:44
100% I would've put robertson with Matthews my lines wouldve been

Robertson matthews marner
Micheyev tavares hyman
Kerfoot nylander kapanen
Johnsson spezza engvall
Nylander is to lazy to play with tavares, tavares looks good anchoring blue collar workers.


5.) 29 Aug 2020 03:27:00
Tavares wasn't exactly a work horse either. Marner was seven worse. Marner showed complete disinterest in that series even though Nylander is singled out. They both played like shir.


6.) 29 Aug 2020 13:41:00
First time poster here but it’s a great conversation. My only hesitation in putting Robertson with Matthews is that you no longer have any line mates that create space for Matthews and I see this line being easily shut down. He is a rookie, small and while he looks like he could have a good future, I just don’t think he would have added much to that line. Let’s face it, without a 3rd or 4th line that puts out little to no offense, and with Tavares and Nylander looking disengaged, I don’t really think you could have done anything different. We just needed the 2nd and 3rd line to do something.


7.) 29 Aug 2020 19:22:23
Under normal circumstances Hyman would be my choice as well because he is the better player and grinder especially at this point in his career. I would have been fine with Robertson with Mathews in this series though because Hyman didn't feel like he needed to play apparently, along with everyone else.


 

 

21 Aug 2020 22:38:09
Honestly if I had to sign or trade a goalie it wouldn’t be Lehner because even though I would love him to sign here in Toronto it won’t happen, Braden Holtby, Matt Murray aren’t goalies I want. The goalie that I would like to sign is Jacob Markstrom. The reason is because he’s a tall goalie and also I think over his time in Vancouver that he has been the one of the best goalies in the league and his save percentage and goals against are good and he’s not like Andersen where he is shaky and doesn’t let the easy goalies in so I think this should be a goalie Toronto should look at.

AdamMitro1634

1.) 22 Aug 2020 00:32:16
Funny how quick everyone is to blame Freddy. I'm not sure any goalie will out duel someone with the overwork Freddy faces. He flat out admitted he needs more rest coming into this year and got no help regardless.

I'm not sure any goaltender faces the abuse our does on a nightly basis and keeps going year after year. He even gets run constantly with no help. Think Rask gets run 5 times a game while Chara is on the ice? Nope.

I do think it's time to move on though. We have run Freddy ragged and he's hitting an age when he's going to continue to decline.

Markstrom is a good target if he isn't resigned but he will be the number on target for most. I don't see fixing the defence AND signing him unless he takes a massive discount or Marner + Kapanen and Johnson are moved.


2.) 22 Aug 2020 07:16:05
Well all also seem to forget he had a 937 save pct. This wasn't a bad playoffs for Freddy. He let in 2 bad goals. That's it.

Blame the entire team minus;

Mathews
Reilly
Freddy

That's who is at fault. Probably not Muzzin either as he played well before injury.


3.) 22 Aug 2020 22:49:08
It's the early and weak goals he seems to give up every elimination game. Leafs work him like a mule, but that excuse is getting old. Blame Dubas for not providing Andersen a proper backup for so long.


4.) 23 Aug 2020 02:23:25
I do. but I also blame Dubas along with the rest of the team for not scoring. You can build a team to score and get shutout.


5.) 23 Aug 2020 20:30:31
Yes that save percentage against the jackets was atrocious 936 I mean really.
Get lost with the Freddy is crud crap already
Fix the d and they will be fine.


6.) 24 Aug 2020 03:41:41
Frederik Andersen - playoff
series deciding games:

Year - SA - SV - SV%

2014 - 12 - 08 - .667
2015 - 27 - 25 - .926
2015 - 19 - 17 - .895
2015 - 26 - 21 - .808
2016 - 20 - 18 - .900
2017 - 36 - 34 - .944
2018 - 35 - 29 - .829
2019 - 30 - 27 - .900
2020 - 21 - 19 - .905

Total - 226 - 198 - .876

The numbers speak for themselves. He is not a clutch goalie. Can't win the big games.


7.) 24 Aug 2020 07:08:05
Can't really blame him for having a bad game 5. He was the only reason they were in the series. Marner was watching butterflies, Nylander checking his hair and Tavares didn't leave the dressing room.

Last playoffs Freddy played well game 6. Should have clinched it. They didn't.

This year Freddy played well all series. They got zero production from everyone not named Austin Mathews.

Said it many times. If you want to neglect defence that's one thing. But you can't neglect your defence and blame the goaltender when you can't score. Picks need to go in the next if you think 4 forwards making that much wins cups.

Barring a miraculous comeback game 5 doesn't even happen. I swear they all just get lazy then turn it on when it gets late. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Can't rely on that.

Even having a 905 save pct in the final game isn't horrible. They got shutout. He could have let one puck get past him and still lost.


 

 

20 Aug 2020 19:50:58
So some top 10 defencemen I’d consider to acquire or sign and this is in order:
10. Colton Parayko
9. Trevor Van Riemsdyk
8. Dustin Byfuglien
7. Sami Vatanen
6. Justin Schultz
5. Matt Dumba
4. P. K. Subban
3. Jeff Petry
2. Kris Letang
1. Alex Pietrangelo
This is an article I read and if I had to pick defencemen to acquire or sign is Parayko, Letang, Pietrangelo. Guys not on this list, Josh Manson, Chris Tanev, Radko Gudas, Dylan DeMelo. So if Letang, Pietrangelo, Parayko or Manson sign or get traded to the Leafs it would help our defence out in a big way.

AdamMitro1634

1.) 20 Aug 2020 20:38:19
You can take petro and parayko off your list.


2.) 21 Aug 2020 02:11:30
Manson sucks take him off too. I would add Matt Roy, Brett Pesce, Ryan Pulock, Brandon Montour, Dante Fabbro, Damon Severson, and Henrji Jokiharju.


3.) 21 Aug 2020 02:21:45
Lol. More Tanner nonsense. I really hope you read the comments on your posts.

Petro is a dream. Unless Marner is moved it won't happen but we would all like it.

Subban is a joke. If Dubas makes that trade he's dumber than I think he is.

Where are people like Gudas and Roy? The actual players that may be leafs soon?


4.) 21 Aug 2020 22:18:03
I just found this article lol. You really did just cop and paste.


5.) 24 Aug 2020 03:47:18
Yeah. You can't tell me this guy isn't Tanner 2.0.


 

 

19 Aug 2020 04:39:24
So what if the leafs did this. Let’s just say that Toronto does end up trading Nylander, Kapanen, Johnsson or Kerfoot and let’s say you get defencemen for them. Your going to have empty spots at the forward position. So why don’t we try and sign Tyler Toffoli. Hometown kid, would probably take a hometown discount to come and play for the Leafs. I’m not trying to say he’s better then Nylander but it would help fill his spot and could play with Matthews or Marner. It would help our top 6 because some of them didn’t play that great during the playoffs and Tyler is playing great in Vancouver. So his contract in my opinion should look like this.

5 years 3-4 million dollars.

AdamMitro1634

1.) 19 Aug 2020 17:25:26
Petri resigns and parayko isn't being traded so what dnan do you thinkbyou are getting.


2.) 19 Aug 2020 20:33:45
You won't have an empty spot unless they are all traded lol. Robertson will play next year for sure and other than the top 6 the minutes aren't much. Especially Keefe's favorite 4th line playing 3 minutes a game.


3.) 19 Aug 2020 20:34:08
Also you forgot barbanov was brought in for a reason.


4.) 20 Aug 2020 00:10:08
Do you just read articles and copy paste others opinions here? Lol.

Worst trade ever. First off spell his last name right and second and Toronto wouldn’t want Matt Murray because he’s not as good as people think and it would be a huge downgrade over Andersen so bad trade.
