TOR
- 20th overall
- Mario Ferraro
_______________
SJ
- Morgan Rielly
I'm not optimistic we get Raddysh or Andersson this offseason. I know Ferraro's a lefty, but I still think he'd be a good add.

TOR
- 1st round pick (Carlo trade)
________________
BOS
- 20th overall
- COL's 2027 1st (conditional)
--
Tell BOS they can have the COL 1st rounder next year on condition that if the Leafs' are crap next year and the top-10 protection kicks in for the '27 1st, then PHI's pick defers to an unprotected '28 1st. So BOS would get additional compensation for missing out on an unprotected 1st in '28, as we'll specify to them that we aren't giving thm this pick in '27 if it's top 10.

Ferraro is UFA. Don’t need to trade for him.

And if Ferraro was not a UFA (who will probably re-sign with San Jose) they would not give us him and the 20th overall for Reilly. That would be such an overpay for him. As far as the Boston trade. We are in no position to tell them what they can and can't have, in any trade with us no matter how fictional it might be.
They would not agree to any terms in regards to protection if we really wanted that pick back from them.

Source that Ferraro is likely to re-sign?
Reports are that contract talks have broke down and he is likely to test the market.

I saw a Twitter snip of a mock Knies trade that looks something like this:
Nemec
Mercer
2x 1st round picks.
---------
While I'm not crazy about this trade, because I think there's probably something better out there for Knies, I do like it more than the MTL trade.
The point of my post is that I think this is the worst D corps in the Atlantic, and that alone makes things very difficult going into this year. If they're not in a playoff spot by December 1st, you can expect Auston to start asking serious questions.
So my idea: there is one thing I think they could do to make that Knies trade work: If the Leafs get NJ's 12th overall pick in that deal, they should go to Boston and explain to them that they can have the 12th overall pick now, or risk waiting to get TOR's 1st rounder in 2028 since we get to choose who takes it.
BOS
- 12th overall
- 60th overall
- 2028 2nd round pick
________________
TOR
- 23rd overall
- 2028 1st rounder (returned)
I think we'd need to sweeten the pot because BOS knows we could be in a bad spot by '28 if Auston doesn't re-sign. Still, they're in a retool as well, and may like what's available at 12th overall to do this.

No thanks. If you want to move a player to get younger assets back then move Nylander.
11 May 2026 16:41:39
Can we please stop with trade proposals involving teams giving up assets where they do not have a surplus at that partcular position?
I understand Matthews would probably agree to SJ, but the reality is, there's no RHD in SJ's pipeline, and there are two RHD available in the top 4 this year.
Same with LA. Sure, We need a guy like Brandt Clarke, but so does LA. If they give up Clarke in any deal, who do they get to play RD when Doughty retires in a year or two?

Utah
William Nylander
--------------
Toronto
Cole Beaudoin
Dmitri Simashev
19th overall 2026
__________________
Maybe use that pick to go after one of the Ruck twins?
I know everyone wants Iginla, but this team should try filling out at Centre and D before wingers, so Beaudoin it is.
Simashev is an NHL ready Dman who's a top 5 pick. Total stud. This team could really turn things around quick.
1.) 07 May 2026 18:43:06
I have no problem going for Beaudoin and Simashev but why not just skip the pick and go for Iginla as well. He is better than either of the Rucks. That way Beaudoin gets a winger he has had past success with.

That’s not a bad deal and to be honest I don’t thing we would have to retain anything.

@Champ.
Pretty sure last year's President's trophy winner missed the playoffs this year, no?
With Kadri and Neilson entering their late 30s, there's a chance they have issues this year, especially if they Makar or MacKinnon get injured.
08 Jun 2026 18:15:55
I would actually like to hang onto that COL 1st. They're getting old down the middle, and if they miss the playoffs next year for whatever reason, then they might be over the hill and surrendering a top 10 pick by the time '28 comes around.
07 Jun 2026 17:38:30
I've floated this exact trade a couple times, but do think Nylander alone is more than enough to get this package.
I'd even go so far as to ask for an additonal 1st rounder next year. If they do that, then you can think about adding Robertson to the deal.
18 May 2026 22:17:08
Levshunov and the 4th are mandatory if they're getting Knies.
And it just might be worth it.
18 May 2026 18:14:04
I'm not convinced Yurov's anything special if we're insisting on trading Matthews and getting a young centre in return.
I also don't think MIN moves Faber.
As much as they need help at centre, they may not have the assets to acquire a true star centre. They may be able to scrape something together for a Trochek, but I don't think they're getting a star.
