Nylander would instantly be on Montreal's top line - what's your point? Besides Bergevin could have him converted into a center like they tried (failed) with Domi, tried (failed) with Drouin. Nylander scored more goals than any Hab. Only Tartar had more points than Nylander (by 2 points) on your team. If you want to talk about salary - lets talk about Alzner, he'll make nearly $5 million of cap hit the next two seasons to play for Laval. - winsix
You guys always pivot to “Nylander would score this many points, he’d be this team’s best player,” while failing to mention that he gets points because he plays wing for two elite centres.. Kotkaniemi and Nylander would be a disaster.

So is Pietrangelo worth it at $9M if cap doesn’t go up for 3 or 4 years and only goes up slowly after that? At some point he slows down but $9M becomes ok in a bigger cap world.

So if it's that easy wheres the 30+ goal winger on JT's left side?
Why go hard on forward salaries if it's that easy?

Well, I'm runnin' down a trade tryna plan a parade
I've got seven defensemen on my mind
Four GMs that wanna own me, two that wanna Mark Stone me
One says he's an ex player of mine
Take it easy
Take it easy
Don't let the sound of just trade Willy drive you crazy
Make cap room while you still can
Don't even try to understand
Just sign Petro to make your stand
And take it easy

Interesting... Does Luke Glendening still want to be a Maple Leaf?

You are the one fabricating here. The points are there to look up, and he really is only going to get better, he's only 24 years old and has scored 221 points. He would score points if he played on the fourth line. Then you could make up a new excuse based on dislike of the player that he plays against easy opponents.
Pay Nylander $7mil to score 30-35 goals, or pay Nick Robertson <$1mil to score 20-30 goals. 🤷♂️
Robertson would probably be better defensively than Willy anyways (Willy was a minus player). - Arctic_AARDVARK
First of all, I am not against trading Willie. I'm against the idea that he's worthless, It's a silly angle because he isn't.
Why would they trade Willie to make room for Robertson... When they play opposite wings and the need is on Tavares' left side? Going to trade one of the teams highest scorers to fill his spot with a player who is needed elsewhere and assume that rookie will definitely score 20? Create a hole to heap that pressure on a teenager with 4 nhl games... And expect him to do it on his off wing?
Why are these the 'options'?
You're going from not making sense to completely nonsensical.
