i think that snake and glassthews would play better and finally win a cup with some more grown ups around them👊

You might be right.

Colorado would probably never consider trading Makar for anyone, but they are definitely never going to consider trading a fully extended Makar at a reasonable number for Matthews who's one year away from potentially milking the UFA market for every penny its worth.

It's the kind of idea that isn't worth validating with discussion when we're at a point where the leafs performance has dredged out peons like Max with his fire Dubas BS.
- joel878

I remember hearing The Great One would never be traded
For the right price, anyone could and would be traded

You’re right. I wouldn’t trade Matthews for Makar because I think Makar’s game will suffer long before Matthews.

The people who undervalue Matthews really don’t like the leafs, sometimes you have to read between the lines.
- shack67

I disagree.
Makar has more value then matthews right now.
And if someone "undervalues" Matthews it doesn't necessarily mean they hate the leafs. Too generic imo.
Makar for mcdavid would be the only 1 for 1 trade i could see.
Where as it woud be makar for matthews plus if Colorado ever considered moving him.
But why would they right now?

These are two of the top or so players in the league. Any real difference in value comes down to contract situation and positional need.

Re: Matthews for Makar.

Would the Avs really turn do the opportunity to have a 1-2 punch of MacK and AM34? They lost this year because the didn’t have Kadri.

Matthews might end up being the best American player of all time, would they really pass up the opportunity to market that? Makar is phenomenal, no denying that, but he doesn’t draw like Matthews does. I still think at this time Matthews is a tad bit better than Makar. His 200ft game is rare amongst centres.

If the Leafs don’t beat Florida, is it really much different than not winning a round? Did they achieve anything? I don’t think they did.*

There will be movement if they don’t beat Florida. At this point there’s no chance Keefe will want Nylander on his roster next year, especially since they can get a very good player in a trade for him. They HAVE to re-sign ROR.

So they might as well go all-in on shaking up the roster. Do everything you can to improve the defence. Holl, Old Gio, Blowdie,** aren’t getting it done.

Trade Nylander and Matthews. Get Makar, and a maybe a guy like Suzuki/Barzal/Stephenson (defensive minded) for Nylander. The core isn’t working. The culture needs to be changed.

yes they do reject it.

* sure they did. they made out of 1st round in a very long time.

** some of those guys will not be back next year. so no need to worry

It's not a popularity contest with me. I just think it's harder to replace what Makar brings. He's 1 season removed from putting up 29 points in 20 playoff games and helping his team win the Cup. He's 24 and RHD that can pass and skate with any elite player both backwards and forwards. Only his 4th year in the league and already 65 points in 61 career playoff games which is great for a Dman. Compared to 41 points in 44 playoff games for Matthews.

This is insane imo.

There’s an old saying what goes, “Gretzky got dealt”… i paraphrase 🤦‍♂️

why would trotz deal glassthews to colorado for makar when he could get a better return from tempe🤦🏿‍♂️

we know that the yotes aren’t on his ntc so he could get crouse plus some good prospects back👍

makar >/=tyson barely 🤦🏿‍♂️

- Fakepartofme

Sure. But the great one wasn't traded in the cap era. Makar is not only Makar, he's under contract for 4 more years literally at a cheaper cap hit than Darnell Nurse.

yeah but he’s a little fella and only has one cup so I’ll stick with glassthews all day every day🤦‍♂️

just looking at his pictures and measurements shows me that he doesn’t work his neck or even jack steel 🤦🏿‍♂️

he’s only 24 so he should have some longevity once bettman outlaws body contact, mandates cages and gets some chicks into the national 🤦‍♂️

I wouldn't do it. But makar is pretty much the 2nd best player in the league...tied with Draisaitl maybe

I really don’t think he deserves that title..

He must be off the meds again. It makes sense. Ski season in Banff must be coming to an end so no more sugar momma ski ladies paying his bills.
