I liked the post to trade Nylander, Rielly and Stolaraz to San Jose, or if that didn't work maybe,
Toronto trades Nylander, Robertson
To
Anaheim for Mason McTavish, Olen Zellweger and Roger McQueen
Then trade Rielly, Maccelli
To
San Jose for Musty and Mario Ferario
And I also try,
Toronto trades Quillin, Cowan, Carlo
To
New York Rangers for Will Cuylle and Brandon Schneider

Said this exact trade a month ago.
17 May 2026 22:59:37
So you like it then?
17 May 2026 23:05:27
Yes, I didn’t think there was a need to retain; I figured Robertson would get 3-3.5 million, so the salary was almost a wash.
17 May 2026 23:38:45
My issue is I have a problem paying him 11.6.
8 I can handle.
17 May 2026 23:56:43
10.5 out 11.5 in so I would let retention kill the deal.
18 May 2026 00:16:04
The Sedins have already said that Pettersson isn't going anywhere and they believe he will return to form in Vancouver next season.

If they are keeping Matthews then yes I like this trade, but would like one more prospect, Halttinen? L
Perhaps.

So there was a earlier post a few days ago about the Leafs goaltending and some said we have enough goalies and things are fine in that regard. Others said we have some issues there and I have to tend to agree. While Woll is our go to for #1 goalie due to no-one really grabbing the bull by the horns. I do think we are lacking a True bona Fide #1. We do have a young potential #1 eventual goalie in Ahktymamov. But our Goals Saved above Expected stats this year was brutal, which is the premier stat GM's and scouts look at.
Woll was 55th in the league and Stolarz was 56th.
Who out there is a goalie you figure would be the guy to go after to take control of the crease and give the defense a bit more confidence it who is behind them, and what would you give up to get that guy whether it be a single trade or part of a package? This should be a interesting one to follow.
17 May 2026 15:15:36
Keep insulting the goalies who had God aweful defense in front of them for the most part. You make it sound like it's all their fault.
17 May 2026 17:22:10
You do realize that you are the pot calling the kettle black, right? You are pretty much saying it is all the Defense's fault but other than Carlo (And he actually was second in Plus Minus on 5 on 5 situations behind Tanev at +4) it's the same Defense they had last year when the Goalies were way better on the GSAx.
Neither Goalie was as Sharp as they were last year and while Hildeby had a bit of a decent Stretch he tailed off as well.
I am just saying we have not had a True #1 Goalie in a while opposing teams know is going to be a handful.
17 May 2026 18:51:27
It was nerve-wracking watching Woll and Stolarz last season.
Essentially the same D in front of them the year before sans Tanev…and they were a solid tandem.
So what happened?
The whole team had a meltdown.
Saw it in the preseason already….
By American Thanksgiving they were toast already.
Post Olympic they quit playing for Berube.
So, yes the goalies were awful, but if the team in front them
Stops playing they are exposed…
I have posted many times to trade Stolarz.
Because Hildeby and Akhtyamov are fine as backups to Woll and a whole lot cheaper.
I cringed mightily when tredeadthing signed him to that extension…for what reason?
Another goofball move from that goofball GM.
16 May 2026 22:02:43

I am on board, buddy. Good prop? Other then I think we take a Reid or Verheoff with one of those firsts. Either way I like what u did and the way the team is set up for the next gen and runs to 100% come with this squad.

So a big no from me.

A flip of RFAs who need a change of scenery
To Utah: F - N. Robertson
To Tor: C - B. Hayton
Both players are roughly the same age.
Hayton - 67 GP - 10G 15A
Robertson - 78 GP - 16G 16A
Both are RFAs and need new deals.
16 May 2026 15:38:55
I like this trade for Toronto. I think Hayton would be a solid 3C, great on draws and is defensively responsible (can also PK).
Utah can use a LW middle 6 goal scorer as well, but I think Leafs need to add a lower draft pick to get this over the finish line (maybe a 2026 5th or possibly a 4th).
Good target.
16 May 2026 19:30:23
I'd be good with it.
17 May 2026 00:44:34
Leafs would need to add a 3rd rd pick.
16 May 2026 13:59:33
First off, rumors on the Leafs trading or not selecting McKennna are ridiculous, when a generational talent comes along and you're picking 1st, you pick them!
Remember the debate of Matthews and Laine, now look at that?
As well, McKenna is the only player in this draft that the Leafs take that likely can play this year!
Leafs will go into the season to win with McKenna and Matthews, if they are on the outside looking in at trade deadline, look for the Leafs to move Matthews.
For now
To SJS: D - M. Rielly + 2026 2nd
To TOR: 2026 1st (20th pick)
This gives the Sharks a veteran blue liner while only dropping back 1 round.
16 May 2026 15:31:48
Hey I’m not saying McKenna isn’t really good, but I have a problem with you saying Generational... He’s not that, bud. Also, what do the Leafs need more than anything??? Right, and true 1# Defender. So, the package we could get additionally by trading our first Ova could yield a lot more. Just saying getting a guy like Chase Reid or Keaton Verheoff could be exactly what we need.
Plus say a NHL ready centre or another good young power forward. Idk there’s options out there for this pick. I believe the Leafs are exploring bc the guys are not generational. Looking at adding quantity might be the play.
16 May 2026 15:48:39
I agree with you Henry77. Bedard is also a very very good player, but 3 years in he is still not hitting the Generational type numbers people had him pegged for. I am not saying he won't eventually. But say it takes him 5 years to hit that stage and possibly the same for say McKenna.
I would rather have Robertson and Harley during their prime during that same timeframe. Just my own personal preference and not everyone else's.
16 May 2026 15:52:23
My way of addressing the Generational thing from this post and the one below that also said Generational and had Robertson and Groulx going for Harley and Robertson and TorontoBuds calling McKenna Generational in it as well.
16 May 2026 19:34:06
I think generational gets thrown out a bit too much. That said, McKenna's vision, hockey IQ and ability to hold onto pucks until the last possible moment and then make a slick little pass to a teammate, probably is generational. But I don't think he as a whole is. Still no doubt he would be my pick.
16 May 2026 19:43:27
McKenna's point totals in the WHL a year ago were greater than both Bedard and McDavid in the same year for both of them.
When elite talent comes along, you draft it! Figure D out through trades.
17 May 2026 23:57:53
The term “Generational Talent” is used far too loosely.
MacKinnon was a generational talent talent.
McDavid was a generational talent talent.
Matthews was a generational talent talent.
McKenna might become a point person game player but he isn’t a generational talent.
There is every reason to believe that Ivar Stenberg will be ready for the NHL this year as well.
He has been playing against men in the SHL.
18 May 2026 01:36:34
Everyone always talks (Myself inclluded) about the 32 players up for grabs in the 1st round. Let's just hope that our scouting staff can find those hidden gems in the lower rounds. 2nr 3rd and 4th rounders. That's sometimes where the actual Stanley Cup runs through is those guys that everyone missed.
Case in point. 1988 Draft. Modano went 1st overall scored 1374 points in 22 seasons. 1 Stanley Cup. Jeremy Roanick went 8th overall scored 1216 points in 20 seasons 0 Stanley Cups. Rod Brindamour went #9 overall scored 1184 points in 21 seasons 1 Stanley Cup. Teemu Selanni went 10th overall scored 1457 points in 21 seasons 1 Stanley Cup.
Drafted in the 4th round that year #67th overall was Mark Recchi (One of my fave players to watch.) He merely outscored each of those 1st round guys 1533 points in 22 years and..... He won 3 Stanley Cups. The most impressive part was he won those cups with 3 separate teams. That is the kind of player we need to look for. We need to turn over every stone.
