Deadline Moves: Domi to Edmonton (for Max Jones + 4th), Jarnkrok to Colorado trade to late round pick 5-6?

In what way does the first trade benefit Toronto at all and in what way does the 2nd trade benefit Colorado at all?

25 Feb 2026 19:18:07
Anything to get rid of Domi is good for Toronto! I’d trade him straight up for Mangiapane too.

Trading Cowan for Shane Wright is ridiculous.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Feb 2026 14:24:25
O'reilly trade I like, Cowan for Wright I don't like, but I would certainly like to see a trade that brings Wright to Toronto to play with Cowan and O'reilly. That would be nice.

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Feb 2026 16:32:55
I’m not giving Tampa Mcmann and Benoit for a 19yr old who’s still playing in the OHL. Sorry rather get a 1st rd pick 2026 and a prospect which is what’s being floated as value for him. Not to mention giving them Benoit as well. Undervalued trade. Cowan for wright no thank you. Your 4 centres next year are u serious? 😂🤣😂 cmon golf town.

25 Feb 2026 00:41:59
heres a fair offer i think

Bobby Mcmann
OEL

to colorado for

2027 1st round pick
gavin brindley
Linus Funck.

25 Feb 2026 14:22:31
The 1st I assume is for McMann? If so then you want more than Gavin Brindley who is a hard worker but vastly undersized, and a Middle of the road Junior Defenseman. The problem with Colorado is that their cupboard is even more bare than the leafs for prospects. The only real one they have worth pursuing is Max Curran as I stated in another post but then he has decided to commit to UMass for from all accounts the full 4 years.

I think over the next 3 years Colorado fans will be in for a slow ride down the hill as their team ages and they are up against the cap with nothing to trade in assets or prospects and no Cash to get free agents. In two years their could be some major players from the team getting auctioned off.

25 Feb 2026 16:35:09
You guys are seriously undervaluing leaf players.

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 20:21:22
Here is a 3 way to ponder.

San Jose gets Reilly and his full $7,500,000 contract in return for that. We get obviously $7,500,000 for the final 4 years of his contract. We also get their 2026 second round pick and their 2027 1St round pick.

We then Take J. G Pageau's $5,000,000 for the remainder of this year to give the Islanders some much needed cap room to be able to add on before the playoffs. We also send them the 2nd round pick we got from San Jose for 2026 and our 2nd round pick in 2027 In return we get Kawshawn Aitcheson.

San Jose gets a veteran D-man when they have hardly any signed for next year.

Islanders get 2nd round picks and hugely needed salary relief.

We get pageau and only the remaining on his Contract of $5 million for this year and if he actually is a good fit for us. They we see if we get him to sign at $3 million for 3 years as a UFA with no trade restrictions and give him bonus clause incentives. It still gives us $4.5 million cap relief from Reillys contract. We also get the most important piece which is Kashawn Aitcheson who is a great offensive talent. Is one of the hardest most feared hitters in all of Junior "A" and rarely gets penalties for those crushing hits. And. he is pretty handy with the fists as well. Oh. and lets not forget that 1st round pick in 2027 from San Jose.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

24 Feb 2026 22:40:20
It might be too big a price for SJS but I like it!

Aitcheson appears to have top4 talent.

Pageau can be resigned or traded and 2027R1 essentially for Rielly plus KA makes this a great return.

Call Tre and make it happen.

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Feb 2026 14:46:18
@ Randy. Tre says why would he want a potential Star Defensemen? lol

Heard a interesting rumour that if the Islanders don't trade any of their 1st round picks this year (They have 2) before the Deadline they might try to Trade Aitcheson and both the Picks to whoever has the 1st overall for that shot at either Stenberg or McKenna. That would be a game changer for the Isles and the other rebuilding team who restocks their shelves in a big way.

How bout you call yuk-yuks and see if they have a spot on stage for you on their improv night. 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣.

Lets say Matthews now wants to play with an American Olympian buddy. Just for arguments sake. Players will have to waive their no moves.

Fla
Matthews $13.25M
Roy $3M

Tor
Reinhart $8.625M
Lundell $5M
Sebrango $.775M
Lukashevich unsigned
2026 2nds (2)

Believable0 Unbelievable0

24 Feb 2026 16:13:06
How bout we don’t and actually post realistic trades for now 🤣🤣🤣.

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 16:17:59
That would be a tough one to pull off. Florida is already in a $-7,696,538 Projected Cap Space. This would add another $1,850,000 to that. Plus I think Reinhart to waive that no trade would ask for compensation from Toronto in the range of $1,250,000 per year to be added to his contract for Tax loss compensation moving from Florida to Ontario. Matthews would not be to upset to going to Florida and paying a lot less in tax.

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 19:25:26
Blowhard, I'm working on it, I suggest you do the same.

S1967. As I said at the start, players would have to waive their no moves. They could move someone else to make the cap work if Barkov can make it back.

Agree1 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 23:02:51
I know they have to waive the no moves I am just saying that unless Reinhart gets a raise he ain't moving. Plus with florida being over already on that cap and adding to it. If Barkov come back it would be more like moving 2 extra bodies of substantial $ then what's the point if you just keep moving out bodies. Don't get me wrong. I like the players involved and the assets I just don't see how it works at all for Florida $ wise.

Agree1 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 23:41:40
If this is you working on it then u are way off and need to do some serious homework. Matthews is going nowhere so posting proposed trades for him is ridiculous. Plain and simple. RLF we need to post realistic trades for players that r are truly candidates of being traded.

Agree1 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 23:48:43
Love the trade from the Leafs perspective but can’t imagine Florida jumping at the opportunity.

I also find it amusing to read Blowhard’s comments on other people’s proposals considering how outlandish many of his are.

Agree1 Disagree0

25 Feb 2026 11:49:00
Blowhard. It was to post something different than the same trades with slight tweaks that get posted over and over again. Some of yours look reasonable, many look ridiculous. Not very "realistic" of you to think otherwise. And, "We" can post whatever Leaf related trade we want. Most of the trades that actually happen in the NHL, were never posted here, so no one is doing a very good job of "realistic trades", which includes you.

Auston Matthews trade to Elias Pettersson that's it.

I like them all.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Feb 2026 23:02:51
I like them too. I'd love to get a guarantee that Ferraro would sign with the leafs though. He is a good one. I know that San Jose and Florida have been talking about Bobrovsky. It would be nice to find a way of doing a 3 way deal with San Jose and Florida and Toronto to Involve Stolarz going back to Florida and Bobrovsky going to San Jose and Getting some assets out of Florida. Problem is their Cupboards are pretty bare in the Prospects and the Draft pool. Loustarainen would be nice to pry off them for Stolarz perhaps.

Agree2 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 23:35:05
i like them besides the Stolarz trade but none of these teams would do any of these deals they're pretty unrealistic.

Agree1 Disagree0

23 Feb 2026 18:22:14
Not sure if someone has done this before, so.

Nash
Rielly $7.5M

Tor
Stamkos $8M

I was looking for somewhere Rielly might waive for, and in this case somewhere Stamkos might waive for. Any move of Rielly is probably a net gain for him and the team atm.

For Nash, they pick up a LD that can slot in on the 2nd pair behind Josi and add some offence from the backend. He is also younger than Stamkos. For most of Rielly's career, he has been better than he is playing now. Change of scenery may do him good. If his play rebounds, Nash's D would be much better.

Leafs take on Stamkos at his age, who is still scoring and would add good leadership and offers up that one-timer threat on the PP. He may offer an upgrade on JT if wanting to put him at centre as he has better speed. He is signed for 2 years less than Rielly, which is more in the Leafs window. He contemplated coming home on the past, maybe he would still like to.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

23 Feb 2026 21:45:48
I would love it
But man Morgan sure smells this season
I think Nashville sees that.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Feb 2026 23:02:27
Anything to get rid of Rielly.
But I would prefer to send him to San Jose for someone 10 years younger than Stamkos.

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 03:52:09
I agree with all except moving tavares to the wing, Tavares is way better in the draw and typically defensively. Stammer also has spent most of the last few years on the wing, at least in Tampa.

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 14:12:11
shanacant. I never said move JT to the wing. I was more thinking he becomes the 3C. Stamkos has been playing centre this year a decent amount. He has taken over 350 draws at at 55.6% win rate. He took almost 800 draws last year as well. He has better wheels than Tavares and this allows the Leafs to move either Laughton or Roy to the wing if they keep them. Matthews, Stamkos, JT down the middle looks like an improvement over the current imo.

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 16:21:58
Only issue is here is they already have Skeji and Hague signed to multi year deals like Reilly. Makes no sense unless one of them is coming back to Leafs. Some ppl suggested swapping Skeji for Rielly b4. Both need change of scenery. Cap is identical $7.5 R and $7m Sk. I’d prefer Hague at $5.5 and has the same term left like Rielly at a $2m asv savings.

Agree0 Disagree0

24 Feb 2026 19:33:22
Skeji point production has dropped drastically and he has become a giveaway machine in Nash. Hague provides little offence and Hague is a really good 3rd pair D if slotted properly. If they could provide offence, they wouldn't need to consider Rielly. Rielly is good for 40+ points a season and Josi is not getting any younger. The only reason Nash would do it is to get more speed and offence from their D while adding to it while not subtracting from it.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Feb 2026 00:34:11
Another preposterous proposal!

1) To St Louis: Austin Matthews, Captain of the Gold Medal winning Team USA

To Leafs: Robert Thomas and Jordan Kyrou

2) To Tampa: McMann (50% retained), Benoit

To Leafs: Sam O’Reilly

Knies - Thomas - Kyrou
Robertson - Tavares - Nylander
Cowan - Roy - O’Reilly
Lorentz - Laughton - Joshua

I know.
Ridiculous!

Matthews as he is laying on his Therapists couch :

" It was the craziest dream. First they let Mitch go to Free Agency and he is living the high life in Vegas. Then they traded me to the 2nd worst team in the league and said my no-trade contract was not signed in front of a witness so I had no choice but to go. Then they traded McMann and Benoit to Tampa and they won a Stanley Cup. Then the worst part of the dream was when I dreamt I was losing all my hair! "

He then stands up looks in the mirror and notices his Hairline "AAAAAAAAHHHH OMG It wasn't a dream".

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Feb 2026 16:12:42

21 Feb 2026 21:04:04
IMO a fairly realistic trade with EDM and no McMann will not be part of any of my trades.

To Edm: Robertson, OEL, Stolarz (50%retained for final year of his deal)

To Tor: Mangiapane (cap dump), Podkolzin, Howard, 2026 2nd rd pick, 2nd rd pick 2027

Edm would have kill off Jarry’s contract if not pay a team to take him.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

22 Feb 2026 02:02:25
Preposterous.

Agree0 Disagree0

22 Feb 2026 17:09:30
If that deal was do-able I would want at least a defense prospect coming back somehow. Couple things that complicate that deal is Edmonton is right up against the wall with Salary and every deal everyone talks about always involves Mangianpane for a salary dump. That is a easier said than done move with him having a complete No Trade Clause for this year before going to a 5 team clause for next year. Plus he and his wife have a 6 month old so he may not waive that no trade at all. He might just saying its not as easy as just throwing him into a deal . Jarry's contract is a long one to Try and buy out and that would thrown there salary cap into a turmoil., Then they would have 2 goalies they are paying not to play for years. With him and Jack Campbell.

Agree0 Disagree0

23 Feb 2026 23:06:32
I like the proposal.
Podkolzin would be a great addition.
Howard has a high ceiling.
Two 2nd round picks would be two more than Leafs have now.

Mangiapane could be bought out this summer.
