I have a Trade Proposal that probably both Teams say no but it would help both Teams if it happened.

Detroit Trades
Larkin
Hronka
1st Round Pick 2020 (4th Overall)
3rd Round Pick 2020 (62nd Overall)

Toronto Trades
Matthews

Thoughts ?

Agree1 Disagree1

Detroit passes imo. Matthews is a great player but Larkin+4th overall is more then enough for him. I don't think Detroit would even consider moving that pick anyway and even if they would I doubt they throw Hronek into this deal.

I disagree mostleaf, matthews is a game changer 4.

Trading Matthews for a downgrade to a “true” stereotypical 2C + 1RHD is a good idea actually. But it seems to me that you have too much emphasis on finding a good centre to replace Matthews and not enough emphasis on the RHD you are bringing in.

In order to really get the help we need, we would have to take a bigger downgrade at 1C and aim for a bigger upgrade at 1RHD imo. There is nothing wrong with Hronek, but he is not going to be the 1RHD we need to fix the defense. At best he is just another plug we insert to stop the bleeding.

If leafs trade Matthews for defensive help, I would expect something like Makar + Jost coming back. Or Heiskenan + Faksa. The emphasis is finding a franchise player for franchise player type swap.

If Mathews was traded for a 2C and a 1RHD I agree the team looks a lot better. Same with Tavares. If it was a deal like O'Reilly+Petro for Mathews the team is way better by committee.

Obvious that's a hypothetical lol.

Mantha seider and 4th overall 2020 pick

Thats my ask anyway.

But i agree with both leafsgm and leafslife on this topic

Mcdavid and draisaitl. those are the only 2 names in hockey more valuable than matthews trade wise.

Remove saab insert debrincat

Best pick leafs ever got for a team with matthews on it was 17. no way hawks do any better

* this year doesn't count as if no the virus leafs make playoffs, lose 1st round still but pick now is 17-24.so probably 21*.

Craigger I would also put McKinnon in that list.

Matthews is not going anywhere.

Yeah forgot him. great contract. i bet he cries every night thinking of the what if.

If only he did a 2 year bridge. he settled after 3 mediocre Years for a long term deal because he didn't trust himself. He signs a 2 year bridge and that 2nd year would of been his breakout year. Then signs same deal mcdavid does in same summer. missing out roughly 30 million. Sure he will get paid great next contract but that money is gone. i'm dure this haunts him.

Yes a great contract but also a sap for being so dumb.
