So who is Shane wright being traded for? Macelli?
and McMann is being traded for the 1st round pick?

If I am the leafs I say yes to both of those but I if I am Seattle I would fall off my chair laughing before saying no. I am pretty sure that even though McMann doesn't have a no trade contract the Leafs are smart enough that is they deal him they would consult with him and his agent on what team he would most likely want to sign with as a free agent prior to the Free agency kicking in. I think McMann is worth a first round pick in the late half of the round but a team will only give that if they are sure they can sign him. As far as Shane wright for Macelli for sure I would love that deal for the leafs, but Seattle has a massive amount of prospects that they will be bringing up in the near future and Macelli as a RFA will be looking for a raise so homegrown prospects Logan Morrison, Jagger Firkus on the farm team or Jake O'brien who if not for a Injury in December would be comfortably leading the OHL in scoring all would be cheaper options than Macelli. I think to do this deal the leafs would have to sweeten the pot with another body that is young and under contract.

B4 u talk look at stats. Mcmann is the 1st which if u look Seattle has 2 in 2026 and 2027 so they can easily give up one of them for a 30g scorer with a low aav. They need scoring. Wright has not lived up to his potential has 22 pts in 56g. Maccelli has 24pts in 46g and is trending upward with his play. Looking like the guy who got 56pts a couple of years ago. You r taking a chance on Wright. Not worth more than that no matter how many unready prospects they have. They r in a playoff spot and need to add scoring and these 2 guys do that.

Wright could use a change of scenery for sure. His confidence there is so low. If he finds his game, he has a ceiling of a 2C and a low as a 3C. C carries more value than wingers. He just turned 22 and had 44 points last season with 19 goals.
Seattle is set up pretty good cap wise next season and could afford to re-sign McMann and Maccelli. That said, I doubt they have given up on their former 4th overall pick so much that they basically give him away when he had a 44 point season last year. They probably are looking for a 1st as a return and know it won't be top 15.
I doubt Seattle would even consider this.

So yes McMann only earns $1,350,000 but what will he earn next year and can Seattle sign him? Otherwise they gave up a 1st round pick that was a rental player. I think truthfully because he has flourished in Toronto that they sign him sooner than later. He is a good fit here but he may not be in another city. The only reason his name keeps coming up is because he is one of the only real assets that doesn't have any trade restrictions at all in his contract.

I have to respectfully disagree with the Shane wright for Macelli. Sure Wright has not put up explosive numbers But in the last 5 to 10 games he has turned his game up as well. The one thing he has doen well is adapt to two way hockey. In plus minus he has been a plus In every season he has played games for Seattle. However Macelli has been a Minus player during his career and in a saw off of numbers I will take the better two way player anytime. Plus I think as Seattles younger prospects enter the league he will flourish maybe not as a explosive player but a John Tavares type with lower numbers in the 60 to 70 point range but still be sound defensively . To add scoring to Seattle before the young gunners get there it would take bigger names than these.

He’s a dud plain and simple and anyone acquiring him is taking a gamble. Keep suffering. 67.

@ Blowhard If you consider Wright such a dud why would you suggest a to trade for him?

Cause you will grab a 1st rd pick for Mcmann and u get rid of Maccelli who will cost you more than wright next year in arbitration. Wright won’t even make 900k next year. Don’t talk until u look at the whole pic ? worth the gamble ?.
