Mike Augello: Leafs willing to move ‘19 top pick, Babcock reuniting old line combo

Why get a guy like Tanev? I rather just pay the cost for a real top guy like pieterangelo or Ekblad (he gives me wet dreams as a Leaf).

If you dont do one of those deals then just sit on your picks.

F Toffoli and D Muzzin from LA
LA are sellers
Both players have medium size cap hits
Both have 1 year remaining on current deal
Both have the size and 'sandpaper' element the Leafs lack

I'm just as fuked up as they say, i can't fake the daytime.

Tanev is meh. He has went very downhill the last season and a half. To the point his contract his poop.

Pesce is the most likely I think. But I’m sure Dubby will pull for Parayko.

Muzzin would cost 1st and Johnsson.
Toffoli would cost a 2nd and Johnsson.
Both would likely cost a 1st, Johnsson, and Kapanen.

Both of these guys are going to have a lot of suitors at the deadline. Highest bid will win. Good luck.

As long as Babs likes playing Hainsey on the first pair and in all situations (PP, 4 on 4) then they gets what they deserves.

What the (frank) bubbles. You were a huge Tanev fan, accusing people who didn't like him as solely being Nucks haters who couldn't see passed their hate like you could. What's happened to Tanev that changed your mind?

Let's be honest no one would really defend Gudbransson.

T'was deffo Santo and Tanev, cos I remember thinking what am I not getting that he's seeing.

I assume he was charting well or something. Now he isn't?

So if his play has gone down hill the last season and a half, what was with that rigmarole over the summer arguing with people who didn't want the Leafs going for Tanev?

Was it sarcasm?

Two summers ago? Yep I remember wanting to trade for Tanev. Kapanen and a 2nd and I was willing to do it. Same draft where Hamonic was traded. I’m glad the Leafs didn’t.

So yeah. Get your facts straight and give me this magic potion you know of that doesn’t let defensmen age or decline.

Absolutely not 2 summers ago. 100% not two summers ago. C'mon man. Last deadline FFS as well as this summer.

Sorry to burst your bubble man.

Once again get your facts straight before you go on to call someone out.

I can't believe you're not owning this Santo. I'm disappointed buddy.

You went on and on bout Tanev. Don't make me search for this. It's a dark dark hole in Hockeybuzz's history.

Why not both? Parayko with Rielly and Pesce with Dermott. Then fill in the bottom pairing. What would it cost? Parayko for Gardiner? Pesce for Nylander? Maybe a swap of lower end wingers with the Hurricanes? It would toughen up the back end and maybe the bottom 6 forward lines. It could be done with a little backbone.
