Based on what Tre turned down from MTL (a trade I would have done), this is not enough apparently.

I don't get the obsession with Knies, but that's just me.

Kraken
Knies
Rielly

Leafs
Wright
Dunn
Miettinen

Not a chance I’m giving up Knies for that package.

26 Jul 2026 03:22:22
Zero percent chance.

Slow news day Fox?

26 Jul 2026 21:47:43
The only thing I want from the Kracken that is worth Knies is Beniers and the Kracken would hang up immediately. I don't see them as a fit for trading partner unless Wright's asking price comes down severely.

26 Jul 2026 22:14:05
Knies for Berniers would still be a pass for me. He’s a 2nd overall pick but if u compare players Knies is better at this stage and rather have him on my team. Berniers is soft as Beurre.

26 Jul 2026 22:19:51
Yeah Beniers is a good one. Very good defensive center and will get you those 20 goals and 50 points each year while playing in a very defensive System. The offensive Center for the future is Catton who also is good defensively but they have him pencilled in for wing until they can get rid of Wright. Chandler Stephenson is also a very good centreman. So down the middle they will be strong and have Jake O'Brien turn into a winger, along with winger Jani Nyman. Where they may need someone like a Knies is to replace Jordan Eberle. He is still fairly productive but at 36 years old is this the year he starts to slow down? The problem is As LeafsLife said, the assets we would like to start a package with for a roster player is Beniers or perhaps Catton and they have amazing prospects... and draft picks but I don't think they entertain at all a trade for either of those 2 young centremen. I think Wright has to be ready to be a #3 centre or winger in this league. But I don't blame Seattle for trying to bill him as more and try to get more for him.

LeafsGM still chirping?

27 Jul 2026 01:28:03
@Suffering, big fan of Catton as well, I would definitely also start a package with him, but that will never happen for the same reasons (as you said).

What's with the Beniers hate? He is on a middling team, in a defensive system and still produces reasonably well.

In the right system Beniers is a 25-30g and 75pts guy that also is solid defensively. We don't crap on Barkov anymore because he's such a stud defensively (even if he is soft?). I don't remember Bergeron as a tough as nails guy, but he was a premier 1C in the league for years regardless.

This obsession with "toughness" needs to be dialed back a little bit. You need a balance, not a bunch of knuckle draggers.

If you want both I don't think this does it.

Also, who's 2027 1st is that?

25 Jul 2026 22:10:32
Assuming the one we got from Colorado, and didn't this get posted to death already?

If you say so.

26 Jul 2026 02:00:54
@Luke As a team without a pick that year it's a valid question.

26 Jul 2026 02:02:46
Ya I do say so come up with something original is that your job as a journalist oh wait no it’s not.

Idea Trade idea

Lorentz to Buffalo for Metsa + 5th RD Pick to Leafs

Thoughts on this scenario? Personally, I think this makes of sense for Toronto:Cap Relief: Swapping Lorentz’s $1.35M hit for Metsa’s $812k contract clears over $500k in crucial cap space. That flexibility is pure gold for the Leafs' tight budget.

#13 forwards are easy to replace internally, but reliable puck-moving defensemen are harder to find. Metsa brings high end hockey iq and clean transition play.
Metsa slots in as the Leafs' #7 or #8 defenseman. He can go straight to the Marlies to log top-pair minutes and run the PP, meaning he’ll be perfectly primed whenever the leafs needs a call-up., Getting a 5th-round pick back is a nice sweetener to replenish assets or use as future trade bait. Yes he's small I know.

Would you pull the trigger on this?

Do Leafs need anymore Steven Lorentz?

Personally i want to see Blueger Joshua together again so that's why Joshua staying in leafs. And maby third player is Cowan on that line.

And Nick Paul top6 player.

25 Jul 2026 16:24:52
Domi will be on LTIR
They don’t need to trade anyone.

25 Jul 2026 17:31:39
You can waiver Lorentz and save $1.2m. Don’t need this Metsa guy, a 27yr old dman; we got enough of those. I’m happy with the 5th rd pick and the total $1.35m savings.

Toronto– Seattle trade idea?!

To Toronto
Mackie Samoskevich
Ryker Evans
2028 3-round pick

to Seattle:
Morgan Riely
2027 2nd-round pick.

This deal would also give Toronto a little bit more salary cap flexibility by moving Rielly's contract.

Evans would bring excellent skating and puck-moving ability (Chayka likes) to the blue line, and he still has a team-friendly 1 year contract. The main target, however, is Samoskevich.

I think he has the potential to become a second-line winger within a year, while right now he's probably best suited for a third-line role. He is fast and skilled.

Toronto's bottom sixx is already crowded, so Loerentz will probably end up elsewhere. Domi is also expected to miss at least half the season, if not the entire season, which creates an opportunity for a player like Samoskevich.

And Seattle, they get pp defenseman. And 2nd round pick.

24 Jul 2026 21:10:08
Seattle just paid a 2026 1st round pick and a conditional 2027 2nd round pick for Samoskevich. No chance this deal ever happens.

24 Jul 2026 22:16:03
Exactly

24 Jul 2026 22:41:59
That deal unfortunately wouldn’t get either one of those players. But I’m a big fan of Ryker Evans, I think he is gonna be a good one. Samoskevich could be a good one for Seattle with a little more opportunity then he had in Florida.
