he would say each part from Montreal is more valuable

CC > Robertson
Domi > AJ
16th > 15th

Leafs should offer sheet Sergachev at $6.2 AAV - (frank) Tampa
- winsix

I have a feeling Sergachev's number will begin with a seven

mr mcgag would trade Cofield, Domi and 16th for Laine

the Leafs equivalent might be Robertson, Johnsson and 15th pick....'ish
Seem light for Laine
- senstroll

Laine's next contract (next summer) could be a tricky one. If you buy now you better like him long term.

I think Domi's value >> Johnsson's so I'd say the Hab offer is better. But, does the Peg (or anyone else) feel confident about Domi being a top6 centre?

Jets should just pass until they find that Centre or elite young D.

No way he gets 7M.

Imagine Laine had the same fire that OV seems to have? He has the size and the hands but is such a headcase who doesn't seem very motivated.

And I'd love to see him actually say it.

It'll depend on the # of years.

Chabot 8 x 8
or
Provorov 5 x 6.75
or
McAvoy/Werenski 3 x 5'ish

Lightning are short on Cap space so I could see them needing/wanting to go short term unless they're prepared to knock a lot of veterans off the books.

let me find that controller unplugged gif.....

but yeah, OV had all the same poop said about him for 10 years...win a cup...and poof...thats all forgotten

Nylander + Liljegren + 15th overall to Wpg por Laine.

Laine is a different kind of floater, and is a likeable guy.
He'd become a fan's favorite soon in Toronto

Top 50 salaried players in the NHL for 2020 will be losing a total 100 million, just this year, to escrow. And will defer another 50 million. That's if things go well and they can play a full schedule in 20'.

No wonder the Breadman is sour.

At least they have jobs.

I feel for the players in a bubble and the difficulty, I don'f feel for them having jobs right now with a pay cut.

Did people ever question Ovi's fire?

I took what he said as Ovi has incredible fire, always has. If Laine had that he'd be even better than he already is.

At least that's how I took it.

Laine's incredible. But so far, he's not Ovi incredible.

I always understood the Ovi criticism to be that he played a little selfish ...didn't develop a two-way game until later in his career.

Same story every year. Cup Champs define winning with absolutely zero flaws in their game. Nobody played over their heads in any form.

thats too steep. Willie just scored more goals this past season than Laine.

they are not that far apart in value that you have to add lil + 15

werenski @ 5mx3 seems like a good comparable.

OV just forgot to play defense for a number of years. Or, couldn't be bothered.

Pass for a guy who’s going to want a raise next year

should have drafted laine

I just realized tampa and dallas are two teams both from "warmer climates". I hope that does well for the NHL in those types of states.

I don't think anybody feels sorry for them. And least of all for those guys in the top 50 salaries.

The point was that's a lot of bread being lost. That 150 million would have been higher were it not for the PA getting a new deal done this summer.

Last thing the Leafs need is another expensive forward. I am guessing they put all their eggs in upgrading D basket.

Sandin kerfoot 15th ov

Laine plays with Matthews and then flip nylander for money and depth to fill out the bottom 6.

Escrow is just a holding place. Why do they not get that money back?

Is it tied to league profits?

Both teams have won in the past. Current hockey hotbeds.

If Winnipeg is getting anything remotely close to this they likely jump on it. Cost controlled winger with similar or better production, prospect D + a pick. I doubt any team is offering such for Laine at this time.

- bixll

I wouldn't call them hotbeds because they won in the past. They are better than their counterparts in warm states but it sure helps seeing them in the finals.
