Eklund: Leafs give Sharks an Offer/Deadline... Devils torn on who to move.

Lies.

Would the deadline be the trade deadline?

Not sure what an "extremely high" return would look like for impending UFA Vatanen. There will be interest, certainly, but most of the teams that could really benefit from him as a rental would need the Devils to assist on the cap part (which would bump up the return.... but not to the point where it would be more than either a better conditional pick plus a second pick or removing the condition. Few teams trade meaningful prospects at the deadline anymore, and even fewer are inclined to move young, cost controlled NHL roster players).

As for Palmieri, he has one season left on his deal, and I doubt he gets dealt this Feb. Summertime or by next deadline, maybe, if they can't agree to an extension.

Simmonds, clearly is available, but Simmer's mileage and production the last couple seasons vs cap hit makes that a tougher sell unless a team values his intangibles super high for a single playoff run. Even if they do, not much asset-wise would come back.

My Leafs suggestions, tell me why I’m wrong.

Dermott and Ceci(salary dump) to Ana for Manson. Both teams gets Dman that better suits their timeline.

Johnson to NYR for Georgiev

2021 Draft picks to SJ for Dillon.

The salaries all matchup and work out. The Leafs get the Dman they need to make a serious run. Dillon can cover for Rielly until he returns and then bottom pair is Dillon/Sandin/Holl.

Draft picks can be added to any deal to balance them out.

Then trade Kapanen at the draft to replace the picks lost and because we will need to move his salary to resign Mikeyev

Come playoff time if everyone is healthy this becomes their lineup:

Hyman Matthews Marner
Kerfoot Tavares Nylander
Mikheyev Engvall Kapanen
Moore Spezza Timashov/Gauthier

Rielly Manson
Muzzin Barrie
Sandin/Dillon/Holl

Anderson
Georgiev

Gotta give you credit, Ek. Kudos for still pretending you have sources and inside information after years of being wrong and embarrassed.

Don't mind the first trade, though we'd have to add pick + prospect. Second trade is bad because Johnson is worth more than a backup, unless you're a Ranger fan, in which case it isn't enough. As for the bolded, it doesn't work because A. Barrie will need a new contract, and we won't be able to afford it and Manson, and B. Kapanen can't play on the 3rd line, because YOU already traded him for picks at the draft.

Because it's not gm mode in nhl20 with easy trades on. Love most the ideas but would never happen why would anyone wanna help stop the 50+ years of our maple leaf fans tears? That's what made the great lakes according to original 6 Bruins and habs fans.

Dermott and Ceci for Manson doesn’t make sense to me. We need defence yes, but not at the cost of another decent dman (Dermott). Trade Ceci sure, but I don’t think Manson is the answer we are looking for.

You want to trade a top line winger for a backup goalie. Nothing more needs to be said there.

Could Dillon help the team? Sure. But my guess is San Jose will want high picks for. No more trading picks. Prospects/roster players maybe, but not picks.

Kapanen should only be traded if it’s for d help, not picks. And Mikheyev isn’t going to get a huge raise, especially after being sidelined for over half a season.

He said to trade Kapanen AT the draft so he can be on the leafs 3rd line for the playoffs. Also i think Johnson for Giorgev is a fair trade for both team. Habs got Eller for Halak. Halak is now a very good backup for Boston while Eller is a very good third line center for the Caps.

So Doug Wilson is saying to Dubas quit dlcking around?

There's no reason to move Dermott. The other deals are reasonable.

Hell even getting Dell in a package with Dillon for the rest of the season would plug the goalie situation, even if Georgiev is preferred.

Dermott and Ceci for Manson doesn’t make sense to me. We need defence yes, but not at the cost of another decent dman (Dermott). Trade Ceci sure, but I don’t think Manson is the answer we are looking for.

He was on the Leafs top line for most of the year, not sure what your issue here is?

Regardless, trading him for Georgiev would be a huge overpayment.

It is amazing the crap you make up.

I've actually heard Leafs are going hard for Dillon and trying to get Marleau back now that he's making league minimum... Sounds crazy, but I know a guy who knows a guy... take that for what you will.
Can't say it will happen of course but Ek might not actually blowing smoke for once...
