I watched the Sea/ Pitt game last night after the Leafs game. Borgen looks good. A legit top 4 defender that can skate, play physical and be reliable in his own end.
My trade for the final piece on the back end;
To Tor: Borgen
To Sea: Lily, Robertson, 2024 3rd rd, 4th rd picks
Rielly Borgen
Benoit McCabe
Brodie Boosh.

Clarky I don't think Borgen is worth all this, he's a 3rd pairing Dman possibly can play 2nd pairing next year. Seems like a high price for me.

You r short on R dmen but u give one up makes no sense to trade lily.

I'm on board with trading lily I don't he'll be anymore than a 3rd pairing d man . Borgen is big and physical and signed to a good contract for another year. A good offer.

A good prop but I think it may be an overpay by the Leafs. He is starting to get more ice time, but I wouldn't say he is an established 2nd pair D yet. If he can, good contract and maybe be worth Lily, Robertson and a 3rs.

@Tags no chance Borgen is a 3rd pairing D. This guy would be our 3rd best D and close to McCabe. He would be a top pairing guy for us being our best RHD. Watch this gem play. I thought he looked better than Larsson yesterday.

Clarky I hope you're right if we get him. I saw him against Boston and wasn't very impressed. Everyone has good and bad games, but I would still put him ahead of Lily.
I just think the offer is a bit much and would try a bit bigger deal including Tanev as well.

@Tags I thought of adding in Tanev but he is at 3.5M with term left. Don’t see them retaining and would be hard to fit that space under the cap.

I like Borgen and feel he would be the perfect partner, stylistically, for Morgan Reilly.
I do not like the idea of trading one RHD for another RHD when Leafs biggest need is RHD.
Take out Liljegren and add Niemala and Tverberg.

Borgen IS a decent target but that’s far too much to pay!
I pass.
