Posted on big site
Tor- Reilly
For
Stl- parayko
Blues fans still won't do this prefer to keep parayko. Lol and you all thought I was the one off base. Just goes to show.
1.) 23 Jan 2020 18:35:18
Nah Reilly is better, just go away.
2.) 23 Jan 2020 19:21:33
Don't act like blues fans are impartial lol.
3.) 23 Jan 2020 22:24:49
Leaf fans want it. crazy just crazy.
4.) 23 Jan 2020 22:51:48
If course they wouldn’t make this trade right now. Reilly’s hurt. You’re something else RedWing. You got a one-track mind. We’ll see in five years who is the better defenseman.
5.) 24 Jan 2020 02:45:29
Dude I'm sorry but I am against it if he was healthy. In general parayko is has and will be better at being a defense man. When you put them side by side like world's parayko is better. One is a part of anstanley cup team with defense first system and he is best shutdown d in game the other is on a high scoring offence that can barely make playoffs lol.
21 Jan 2020 16:25:27
Since it seems leafs need more defensive forwards than what they have for a cup run.
Tor. Marner 50% retained
Stl bozak Sandford.
1.) 21 Jan 2020 17:34:10
Hahahaha I get you hate the Leafs, but it's not April Fools day yet!
2.) 21 Jan 2020 18:03:01
This was nearly a troll post to counter the shiiiiiiit 0arayko post below.
05 Dec 2019 15:37:46
STL- Allen 50% retained Borts
Tor - Ceci Liljgren.
1.) 05 Dec 2019 16:15:02
Since when did backup goalies start costing 1sts/ A-prospects? I thought that’s what starters go for?
2.) 05 Dec 2019 16:37:02
3r pairing tough dman (which you don't have) The best back up on the market at 2.3 mil and a cap dump for liljgren.
so let's do the math.
cody ceci- 4.5m (cap dump) (negative value)
minus
jake allen 2.3m (50% retention)
Bortuzzo 1.4
Total cap savings for Tor 800k. Get a great back up and great 3rd pairing tough defender. Lose ceci and his 4.5 cap dump for Liljgren.
When we dumped lehtera it cost a 1strnd pick. This is fair. Fixes two major issues for your team.
3.) 05 Dec 2019 18:02:41
Rather just keep Liljegren. We don’t have any use for Bortuzzo and Liljegren is our future top 4 RHD that we desperately need. Personally I would rather part with Sandin than Liljegren. Most on this site would disagree, and they are free to do so.
4.) 05 Dec 2019 20:35:01
I could take him as well.
5.) 05 Dec 2019 22:14:27
Ah screw it. i like this deal. redwing1 good deal.
6.) 05 Dec 2019 22:19:29
I bet you would. Lol.
7.) 06 Dec 2019 01:44:31
Why do you prefer Lili over Sandin? Is it handedness? All I can see he does better at this point. In the future he may very well be the better player though as it's not set in stone with prospects ever.
8.) 06 Dec 2019 12:17:25
Merely the handedness and. Fact that I thought tor fans were unwilling to part with sandin.
02 Dec 2019 16:19:42
bunch of chatter on hf boards
tor- Kappy
stl- Allen 50% retained.
1.) 02 Dec 2019 16:28:20
Maybee add a 3rd pick.
Saves tor 1mil in cap. They get a back up playing extremely well for 2 years at 2.2m. Also maybe throw a 3rd there. Also the great Jeremy Bracco can be called up to start his NHL career.
2.) 02 Dec 2019 16:49:18
Please, do not entertain this.
3.) 02 Dec 2019 17:05:40
Does Toronto need a back up goalie?
If I am correct Hutch has only helped Toronto gain 1 point.
jake is 4 and 1 with a 2.68 GAA and a .914 sv%.
4.) 02 Dec 2019 19:15:52
Allen buckles under pressure - note his record as the starter. Wildly inconsistent. Even at 2.175M for 2 years, not worth it. Especially considering the pressure he'll be under to win when the BU position is so heavily scrutinized in Toronto right now.
Allen criticism aside, Kappy for Allen at 2.175 is awful. The Leafs can get one of Pittsburgh's backups or Phoenix Copley for much less than a potential top-6 winger on a great contract.
Kappanen for an heir apparent to Freddy might be something to talk about, but not a way overpaid backup with no starter potential down the road. Ilya Samsonov, Spencer Knight or Ukko-Pekka Lukkonen maybe.
5.) 02 Dec 2019 19:46:53
This trade is a panic trade. leafs are doing blues the favor here. even at half price allen isn't even close to getting a kapanen.
Doesnt matter who the backup is the leafs play horrible for the whatever backup is playing.
Try ceci at 1.5 retained for allen. that's about the worth of allen right now.
6.) 02 Dec 2019 20:44:33
Blues do not need a rhd. Rather keep Allen and continue to the cup agaim.
7.) 02 Dec 2019 20:59:26
There you have it. that's how i politely decline trades. live and learn. lol.
8.) 02 Dec 2019 22:48:35
Please don’t make this trade.
9.) 02 Dec 2019 23:02:29
Hotwing69 couldn’t tell the difference between $h! t or pudding! Lol! This cat is on this web site because his web site is garbage, been there seen it ain’t worth trolling!
Let me guess you were staring at the wall in your cubicle when you came up with this trade? Blink blink?
Great trade cha chi! For your next trick try walking and talking or blinking and eating! Ha ha! Lol!
10.) 03 Dec 2019 00:14:07
Like 8 said chatter on he boards.
11.) 03 Dec 2019 14:09:27
38 save shutout .926 sv% and has 12 pts how many does hutch have 1 lol.
12.) 03 Dec 2019 19:16:10
I don't think anyone is arguing that Hutch is better than Allen. That felt like a petty cheap shot for everyone shooting down your trade prop.
13.) 03 Dec 2019 21:18:02
No not really. Though I am curious to see what type of a back up goalie leaf fans think they are going to get less than 2mil. Just curious. Also I hope for the sake of leaf nation nothing happens to Anderson.
21 Nov 2019 16:51:23
Stl - faulk
Tor- sandin ceci 2nd 2021
How does this sound taking ceci dead weight and getting sandin +2nd for faulk
You say sandin is future 1lhd but Reilly will always be the 1lhd for long time.
1.) 21 Nov 2019 17:05:37
I can honestly say faulk is better than any rhd currently on the leafs roster. Also willing to take nylander or kappy sandin with add from blues let's make an honest attempt a this idea. Leafs need faulk. Blues need future or winger but kappy for faulk doesn't work by itself.
2.) 21 Nov 2019 17:14:37
Hmmm another offensive dman. just what we need. not!
3.) 21 Nov 2019 17:26:41
Faulk wasn't signed long term to be traded. He is fine where he is, we can have Petro for nothing next year anyway.
4.) 21 Nov 2019 17:58:55
If sandin is traded its for petro. if its faulk the blues would need to settle on hollowell. faulks cap hit isn't worth how he plays. In a structured system that blues players have bought into his mistakes are covered up by good defensive team game. In toronto he will look just like Barrie. same type guys. in fact barrie before this season was actually better. trade barrie for faulk and you get same result just with differant nsme on the back. barrie would have good corsi and probably more than 6 assists. in toronto faulk would have horrible corsi and look lost. not worth it for leafs.
There is a reason why redwing1 is making a deal for faulk. because he can't play LD and isn't as good as he expected. his mistakes do get covered up and even he knows it. faulk isn't the answer for the leafs.
5.) 21 Nov 2019 18:59:00
Parayko is a much more sensible target with Leafs needs.
6.) 21 Nov 2019 18:59:53
Why the huge hard-on for Sandin anyway? Great player, sure, but there are so many just like him, he’s not any better than at least a dozen or more prospects ahead of him. Will he be a future 1LHD? Who knows? He looks good for now, but until he gets in the nhl and shows us what he can actually do, then he’s no better than Jokiharju, Juolevi, Juulsen, Gudbransson, or any other highly rated hyped top defense prospect that never worked out. Hell, there was a time when I had questions about Reilly. Glad to see he finally worked out, but it could have easily gone the other way. If I remember correctly there was at least two other defensemen drafted ahead of Reilly that year. How did they work out?
Faulk is crap. A RHD version of Gardiner. But he is still an nhl player. Until Sandin becomes nhl player too, then Faulk is better than him. But we don’t want Faulk for the same reason we didn’t want Shattenkirk.
7.) 21 Nov 2019 20:39:17
Agree with all those points LeafsGm but the big thing for me about keeping Sandin is he is the last real prospect the leafs have right now. Bracco and Lili are a bit older, guys like SDA could be anything at this point, so it comes down to the leafs have ONE solid, A prospect. That makes him more valuable to us than he is to other teams. It's exactly the same as the Marner trade props during summer when some people said:Marner for a 1RHD, 1RW, 2 prospects and a 1st. It's more about what he means to us currently.
8.) 21 Nov 2019 21:56:50
We just do not have any lhd worth much out side of Dunn gunnerson jaybo. Two of those guys are aging. We have parayko petro on line 1. Jaybo faulk line 2 gunner Dunn borts line 3. Be nice to get youth in.
Petro will be resigned and he is not free. 8 9 mil and parayko would cost more than your willing to pay. Don't confuse faulk with Barrie and ceci. He is better all around than both and is physical. You need a partner for Reilly and faulk is better than all your the.
Petro would cost more than your willing to pay as well. Stanley cup teams do not trade their best players for scraps.
9.) 21 Nov 2019 23:03:38
Just re-reading the original prop again, and I guess what got lost in the whole Sandin discussion was the casual mention of Nylander. I bet you would gladly take Nylander and Sandin for Faulk. Lmao.
10.) 22 Nov 2019 13:53:07
no nylander for faulk or kappy sandin I may have stated it confusingly.

Only team to lose to a zamboni driver
Leafs.
1.) 07 Mar 2020 09:01:06
Only team to lose in the finals three years in a row
Blues.
26 Feb 2020 16:46:20
Robert thomas 2c with a goal and assist. Most talked about player on national broad cast other night. Pacing for 55 points as a 20 year old. What a busy of a player defiantly never going to be 1c. Or make nhl.
Lol.
1.) 26 Feb 2020 18:25:36
Good for Thomas. He almost has as many points as Matthews has goals now. Congratulations are in order. But last I checked, teams with a 1C that only get about 50 points tend not to do very well. If that is the best your future 1C can do, then the future doesn’t look very good for St. Louis now does it?
2.) 26 Feb 2020 19:07:35
He is 20 years old and on pace for 50+ points lol. Not all players develop the same way. Is Mathews better of course but we are arguing you calling Thomas. A bust to think he won't continue to get better is laughable. You sir got proven wrong.
3.) 26 Feb 2020 19:25:49
Not really laughable. I don't think he's a bust but development is a strange thing. How many guys have been given massive contracts based on seasons as 21 year olds? Not everyone keeps growing.
4.) 26 Feb 2020 23:44:19
You mean like kappy who is a top 6 player yet had 9 points when he was 21 lol. Just admit you were wrong and I will quit.
5.) 26 Feb 2020 23:46:10
Also j9hn Tavares had 50 points when he was 20. hmmmmmmm.
6.) 27 Feb 2020 04:07:15
I don’t believe either I, or anyone else on the site, called Thomas a bust. I believe what was said was that Thomas is not ever going to be a 1C, and he was compared to Kapanen. I still don’t think Thomas will ever be a 1C, and I think the comparison to Kapanen is still apt. So I am not proven wrong yet. There are many, many witnesses on this site who remember this debate very well and who will verify the accuracy of my statements. If I did refer to Thomas as a bust, it would have been in reference to that 1C statement that you are so sure of. So, until Thomas becomes a 1C, then he is a bust. I do believe you refer to Bennet in Calgary as a bust regularly. But he is a 3C right now, same as Thomas. So why is Bennett a bust and Thomas not? You, sir, have just been proven a hypocrite.
7.) 27 Feb 2020 06:02:28
I never once referred to banner as a bust. Lol you are digging your self deeper. I remember having a similar argument with yupp and other edm fans in regards to parayko being a top pairing rhd. Lol I was right then and right now.
8.) 28 Feb 2020 11:01:44
I'm as positive of you calling Bennett a bust as you are certain that I called Thomas a bust. i'm just digging that hole to bury you is all. You called Bennett a bust repeatedly, amongst others. Meanwhile you think guys that are the same age and not even ever played ngl are going to be 1C's. They just need more developing (Sam Steel comes to mind) . So an NHL player that has three years experience is a bust, but a guy drafted same year as him and who is just finally breaking into the league and has barely anything to show for it, is considered a future 1C. Very strange thinking you have redwing.
9.) 28 Feb 2020 18:37:49
Why would I comment on Bennet. Straw man will not get you or other leaf fans out of this pickle. Robert thomas will be a #1 center soon. You should really take the time to watch a player before you judge.
10.) 29 Feb 2020 22:23:57
You've commented on Bennett plenty of times on the main site and you know it. And nobody is grasping at straws here except maybe you and your delusional thinking that Thomas will ever be a 1C. Comparing him to Tavares is especially funny considering that St. Louis is a top centender team, while Islanders were the butt of the league when Tavares first started playing for them. Huge difference in capable kinemates between the two teams and an unfair compare for Tavares, who was expected to carry his whole team out of the basement, while Thomas hangs on the third line of a cup contender.
25 Feb 2020 02:16:33
Muzzin extension makes it impossible for leafs to sign petro.
1.) 25 Feb 2020 14:39:47
He is 100% staying in St. Louis anyway. Right? .
2.) 25 Feb 2020 17:55:19
Dude nobody cares right now. Plus they can just trade Johnsson next year if they want and Ceci and Barrie are still on expiring contracts I think you forgot that.
3.) 25 Feb 2020 19:30:05
If signs Petro without losing one of Marner, Tavares or Mathews it's a bad move. Can't afford 4 11+ players.
4.) 26 Feb 2020 14:25:22
At his age, signing Petro to an 8-year $11+M contract would also be a big risk. How much will he be worth the second half of that contract? Since Doughty and Weiksson signed their massive deals, neither has come close to being anywhere near what the price warrants. They are both still good players, but neither one is a Norris candidate anymore, and may never be one again. How could any GM feel comfortable giving Petro a max term deal for so much money after seeing the disasters in LA and SJ that those deals brought. SJ had to let their captain go after he just had almost a 40 goal season in order to take on Eriksson. That was a silly move, and considering how bad they are doing this year, I’m surprised he still has a job.
5.) 26 Feb 2020 18:47:33
Karlson strikes me as the big problem in SJ in a lot of ways. I thought the contract was to long but I didn't realize he knew this was his last contract and stop giving a rubbish.
6.) 27 Feb 2020 04:14:52
How bad was my spelling that Karlsson got changed twice into almost unrecognizable names not even close to the correct spelling? I don’t drink, so must have been high. And I mean real high. If it wasn’t for the fact that we are talkinh $11M defensemen, I don’t think anyone would have figured it out who I was referring to.
20 Feb 2020 12:12:48
To the leafs fans who said a 20yr old Robert thomas was a bust. please note he is on pace at 20 yrs old to hit 50+ points and mostly from even strength and 3rd line minutes. please feel free to talk amongst your selves. what a bust of a player.
1.) 20 Feb 2020 12:30:12
Still on this?
2.) 20 Feb 2020 13:38:26
Will be till a certain few leaf fans admit calling a 19 yr 33 points in 70 games last year a bust. Lol
Admit you were wrong.
3.) 20 Feb 2020 16:40:01
I don't even recall anyone saying that. Maybe they did but I'm not sure lol.
4.) 20 Feb 2020 18:39:38
And this has what to do with the Leafs. Who is Robert Thomas, I had to look it up. Now Petro, everybody knows him and the big contract he signed with the Blues. LOL.
5.) 20 Feb 2020 19:22:41
Oh it was said. Petro will be resigning with blues.
6.) 21 Feb 2020 10:23:21
redwing1, I heard that.
7.) 22 Feb 2020 03:08:05
50 points for a 3C is pretty impressive. That’s maybe a. half dozen points more than Kapanen averages on the third line. Congratulations to the never going to be a 1C Thomas doing so well on the third line.
8.) 22 Feb 2020 21:59:50
Lol he just got promoted to 2c and got 2 assists last night. Fyi he is 20 years old. How many 20 year olds are 1cs. He will be there soon enough. Fyi kappy is 3 years older. When kappy was 20 he got 9 points in 38 games that equals 19.6 points for a full season. So once again the bust that is Robert thomas is amazing.
05 Jan 2020 22:12:15
Just wanted to put this out for leafs gm or leafsfan or whom ever said Robert thomas is a bust please eat your words now.
Robert thomas 20 yo center
Gp 38 g7 a14 21pts
On pace g15 a30 45pts
When kappy was 20 he was still in ahl.
But now t gis year they are comparable except Thomas is center. So please explain how he is a bist.
1.) 07 Jan 2020 00:29:39
He's playing in the NHL Redwing, so he's not a bust. 2nd or 3rd line guy.
2.) 07 Jan 2020 01:19:36
At 20 he is a 2ndline rw 3rd line center. Just wait a year or two. Lol
But yeah leafs fans said he was just at 19 lol.
3.) 07 Jan 2020 07:58:51
I already answered this. No one said he was a bust. The comments towards Thomas were that he hadn't proved anything yet. He still hasn't in a lot of ways. If he was 15g and 40+ points good for him. It's you praising Thomas the way leafs fans do our prospects while all the while telling us how dillusional we are that annoyed everyone. Your comparing the guy to a middle 6 forward like he is Mathews. He isn't and never will be.
Get your head outta your ass sometimes and stop blinking staring at the wall (looking at you LHD lol) for 5 minutes and you will realize how asanine your comments are at times. I actually routinely agree with you on certain subjects as you know what your talking about but posts like this are just nonsense.
4.) 07 Jan 2020 12:08:02
Once again he was called a bust. He is 20 years old. The difference between me and the delusional leaf fans is I praise young talent where it is deserved. In this case it is. Along with kyrou who is behind Thomas in development but can be just as explosive. If both of these players where leafs players then they would be considered first line material.
5.) 07 Jan 2020 23:58:11
They would both be in the AHL with Bracco as the leafs don't need either one.
6.) 08 Jan 2020 03:30:52
Lol what a joke Thomas would easily b your third center. He is by far better than kappy as well.
7.) 09 Jan 2020 03:23:35
And I asked you: do you still think Bennet is a bust?
Nobody called Thomas a bust RedWing. We compared him to Kapanen, which you got offended by, because you said Thomas was going to be 1C while Kapanen was poo.
If you mean bust in the sense that Thomas didn’t work out to be a star 1C like you said he would. Then, yes, Thomas is a bust. He’s far from being a 1C and likely never will be more than 2C at best. If you’re definition of bust is not working out to the delusional level that you thought he was capable of, then yes, he’s a bust. Because he will never be a star 1C like you repeatedly said.
On the other hand, if you mean that he is a very effective capable full time middle six player capable of 20 goals and 40 points, then no, he’s not a bust. And neither are Zacha, or Bennett, or Patrick. All these guys are good middle six players. If you think any of them will ever be nominated for an achievement award of any sort, or leading their team as 1C, then no, that won’t happen. So to call any of them a bust depends on your definition of a bust.
You have a very real tendency to twist facts and even mix up, or make up, things that were said. I’m not sure if it’s intentional trying to provoke, or if you are just honestly mislead. It strikes me as strange though that even the casual contributors on this site know what was said better than you remember.
8.) 09 Jan 2020 03:37:07
Also Thomas would not be our 3C over Kerfoot. No chance. He would be our third line winger except Mikheyev seems to have secured that spot already now.
9.) 10 Jan 2020 01:48:38
Ate you kidding me not over kerfoot wtf you pull that from. Thomas is the superior player by far. Bozak is better than kerfoot and he plays 9n Thomas wing.
10.) 10 Jan 2020 02:08:10
1g 2 assists
Steen Thomas bozak.
19 Mar 2020 17:02:03
Yeah that's a solid no.
19 Mar 2020 11:33:20
Nobody wants marner unless you retain 2-3 million.
19 Mar 2020 11:32:55
Bracco is damaged goods. 4 goals and left for personal reasons. Has zero value and a third line Dman on a crap leafs defense lol.
12 Mar 2020 11:08:12
Leafs wouldn't get Jones for that junk let's be honest with ourselves.
11 Mar 2020 23:05:44
Junk junk junk and junk for Jones
Lol don't you change you leaf fans.
04 Mar 2020 12:14:54
Petro is resigning with blues lol.
28 Feb 2020 18:37:49
Why would I comment on Bennet. Straw man will not get you or other leaf fans out of this pickle. Robert thomas will be a #1 center soon. You should really take the time to watch a player before you judge.
27 Feb 2020 06:02:28
I never once referred to banner as a bust. Lol you are digging your self deeper. I remember having a similar argument with yupp and other edm fans in regards to parayko being a top pairing rhd. Lol I was right then and right now.
27 Feb 2020 06:00:03
Blues can grind any team down in 7 game series. Mapleleafs with speed and skill could get past the grind game but your defense and system are lacking. Infill that changes you will never make Stanley cup.
26 Feb 2020 23:46:10
Also j9hn Tavares had 50 points when he was 20. hmmmmmmm.
