Right so what do you do if you're Benning? He can't have his cake and eat it too (although he looks like he's enjoyed some cake).

Unless Benning makes a move to get some picks, the Nucks first pick this draft will be at #81. If you visit the the Nucks blog, some are expecting to get at least a 2nd and a 3rd for Loui Eriksson and Baertschi

I have to think Carolina, Calgary and maybe Edmonton are all sniffing around.

I read Chicago might be interested as well..

Andersen to Chicago for Connor Murphy and a 2nd rd pick would also be nice.

Andersen is worth quite a bit. it's all due to his 1 million in salary

Can you please post another ridiculous trade proposal. Your gem from yesterday provided hours of laughs.

I missed it.... what was the trade proposal made by Bingo?

blackhawks make a lot of sense.

they absolutely need a starter. and they are not ready to throw in the towel on toews/kane/keith.

People always act like it's so easy for other teams to trade players.
VEGAS can't move that Fleury deal. He's 35 with regressing numbers and 7 million per. Too many goalies better and cheaper available this offseason.

But please, keep the narrative Nylander can't be moved ROTFL

I actually like the Canucks, so bear that in mind when you read the following statement:

I think they are taking a huge, wild risk in declaring Demko ready for prime time, after he started exactly 3 games in the playoffs.

Jesus, that sounds like what the Leafs did for 40 years.

- Atomic Wedgie

Agreed.
I think it would be foolish to believe they would do that.

Or run with Campbell as the #1 this year, and a young guy as the apprentice.

Not ideal, but the cap hell is real.

- RogerRoeper


He might be but I'd factor in a weird, short season and that it's an expiring contract and I doubt he's worth a good young player.

I don't see Carolina putting Pesce on the table unless Nylander's name is out there.

I think it's Freddy to the highest bidder for probably some decent picks/prospects.

Use those assets to get the dman and/or replacement 'tender.

Not the worst goalie. Not the best.

I am worried about the Leafs' goalie position. Their best prospect in my mind didn't play at all last year due to hip surgery.

agreed. that is the only reason is worth a lot.



unpossible to find a $1M goalie on the ufa market.

Leafs are not moving Nylander for Pesce. It would require a much better D than him.

Yup, chicago too. Detroit and Jersey could both use him and try to lock him up.

But, I think the buyouts happen on September 25th. Teams will start to hear what Vancouvers doing with Markstrom. Once those issues resolve the market will open up for 'tenders. Who's shopping and who's selling.

Campbell has done jack poop to prove he can do anything in a Leafs uniform that won't lead to burning down the White House.
