Tor: Matthews, OEL
SJ: Misa, #2ova, #20ova, Chernyahov
Dangling a dman to SJ helps make this cross the finish line. Trading Matthews would ultimately trigger a full rebuild so we get a great haul. We could even consider 50% retention on Matthews for a kings ransom since SJ's RFAs need to get paid.
We can then talk to St. Louis who would have some interests in the #2 pick to have both Stenberg brothers.
Tor: #2ova, Woll
StL: Dvorsky, #11ova, #15ova
Adding Woll balances this trade out. StL can balance and 1a/ 1b scenario with Hoffer and will making room to trade Binnington. Leafs also get their #2 prospect, and 2 1st Rd draft picks.
Tor: Knies, #15 ova
Chi: #4 ova, Rinzel, #34ova, #37 ova
Another bold move. Leafs pick up a solid touching NHL ready RHD and can add one of the top d prospects aswell. But theagic comes in the early 2nd 2 draft picks to take the twins before Calgary
Chicago gets their guy to play with Bedard, and a top 15 pick to work with.
Tor: Nylander
Sea: Wright, #7ova, #38ova
Seattle is looking for a super star and has 2 first Rd picks this year. This gives the Leafs a couple of fair draft picks this year plus a former top draft pick who could use a change of scenery.

The San Jose trade has San Jose not even remotely considering it…
The St. Louis trade is laughable.
Why not just gift wrap it for them with a bottle of champagne?
The Hawks trade: why are we adding a 1st rd pick?
The Seattle trade is, say what?
A superstar for not even a top five pick? And a center who may not be better than a third line center?
Are you a Kraken fan?
Other than that, nice post.

Tor: Nylander, Woll, 2027 1st (LA)
Tb: Kucherov.
1.) 10 May 2026 13:59:10
Well for starters we don't have a 1st from Los Angeles and even if we did that is still not going to get you Kucherov.
2.) 10 May 2026 22:11:58
Sorry, meant Colorado's.
3.) 11 May 2026 00:30:24
It doesn't make any sense to trade the 2nd highest scorer in the NHL and take on a player who is very good but certainly not in the same elite level, and you are taking on $2 m extra in salary for a lesser player, as well as an extra $3.6 for Woll as a backup when the team is already full and has only $13.5 in cap space and they want to try and re-sign Raddysh.

Tor: Matthews.
Min: Faber, Boldy.

So im thnking we can make a few good moves this off season.
So my first trade i proposed a while ago
tor: Carlo, Robertson
ana: Mctavish, Procyzsyn
my second isnt well liked but:
tor: Knies, Bo Groulx, Topi Neimela,
chi: #4 OVA, Sam Rinzel
this move brings in a d prospect and we use the 4ova pick to draft Reid.
Cowen Matthews Nylander
Mckenna Mctavish XXXXXXXXX
Joshua JT XXXXXXXX
Lorentz Quillan Holinka
Now for free agents id think Laine would look well on the 3rd line with JT and Joshua who can pick up the defensive slack.
The #2 spot could be Tuch, Roslovic are the only right handed options that could be available.
Now defensively
We should move out Rielly.
OEL ZZZZZZZZ
ZZZZZZZZZ Tanev
Mccabe Rinzel
We have 2 holes to fill, Anderson prefered after drafting Reid and bringing in Rinzel. for the last spot id thinking Ferraro would be the #1 choice to compiment Tanev, with Logan Stanley bein the second option.
Everyone else thats not bolted down we should trade for picks and prospects to use to upgrade players as we go.
1.) 09 May 2026 11:40:03
Pat Verbeek just puked in his mouth a little bit. Ducks aren’t doing that deal.
01 May 2026 17:34:22
Tor: Benoit, Maccelli, 2027 5th
StL: 2026 3rd, 2027 4th
Simple move out peices for futures.
1.) 01 May 2026 19:05:47
I want to see Maccelli for one more year with a different coach that isn’t line juggling every other game.
2.) 01 May 2026 21:19:49
Wow LeafsGM we are the opposite on every opinion on this team. We were suppose to change our identity and went out and got Maccelli? Big mistake, Utah knew it too. That’s why he sat half the year before he left. Leafs need to lose guys like Maccelli and trade Nylander and don’t look back.
This isn’t soccer @LeafsGM, you need to be tough and have some heart in hockey and your two favourite players there don’t have it. They should be playing soccer with you
3.) 01 May 2026 23:39:17
Totall agree with you, Clarky. It's pretty much time to warm up the bus for out of town departures.
4.) 02 May 2026 14:28:02
Never played soccer outside of gym class.
5.) 02 May 2026 14:50:07
Soccer is a game I probably hate the most and yes we have different opinions as for my favourite players Gretzky was my favourite player I think he won the cup maybe not and as I recall wasn’t the toughest player out there he was the smartest for sure.
We do agree Mo has to go
6.) 02 May 2026 16:21:21
Leafsgm, Brett Gretzky never won a cup.
7.) 02 May 2026 18:44:29
I won't take away from Gretzky's accomplishments. Yes he was not the toughest but he had Semenko to allow him a lot of extra space to be the player he was. He also had one of the greatest assembly of players put together by Glen Sather playing with him. Also worth pointing out is that as massive of point totals he put up. After he got traded the team didn't collapse as you possibly think Toronto will if one of Matthews or Nylander gets traded. Edmonton won the cup 2 years later without him. Messier was still there amongst others. Messier then of course won another cup in New York. Wayne on the other hand never won another in the final 11 years after he left Edmonton and actually missed the playoffs in 4 of those and would have been 5 had he not been traded to St.
Louis just before the Trade Deadline.
So when you say Gretzky won "the" cup. He did not win "the" cup. He was a huge part of the "Team" that won "the" cup multiple times and that "Team" won it again without him.
Toronto is not a dynasty type team like that of Edmonton's but it does show that a team does not have to collapse because one of their key parts is gone. We will survive but it will be a tougher climb than Edmonton had because we don't have their depth and unlike that era, there are Salary Caps and Free agency and No trade contracts in this era, which makes that climb harder but with the right General Manager not insurmountable.
8.) 02 May 2026 21:22:35
Correct?
9.) 02 May 2026 21:53:42
Exactly my point saying Nylander isn’t tough enough it’s the whole team that wasn’t tough enough and it’s not his job to be like Gret and Semenko and McSorley. Not sure if it was you who wrote Nylander is selfish, lazy, uncoachable.
Well he lead the team in assists, no professional athlete can be called lazy in my opinion, and the entire Leafs team look uncoachable last year lol because we had the wrong guy doing it.

Anyone else starting to feel like this season is going to end up as a wash and they just trade out their UFAs to bring in assets.
1.) 29 Nov 2023 13:12:10
Hrenklin. We are basically having this discussion below. So, yea, I think a few of this could see this happening.
01 Oct 2023 20:53:55
philippe myers was placed on waivers. might be a decent pick up for a big bodied RHD.
1.) 01 Oct 2023 22:34:02
Always liked the idea of Myers as bottom pair D. jeans gave passed on him before . might be time with timmins injury . if only he used that big frame of his more than ge does.
2.) 02 Oct 2023 00:17:17
Not a big fan of Myers. I'd rather keep what we have.
3.) 02 Oct 2023 01:58:55
I've always liked P. Myers. Seemed to have all the tools etc, but just fell off the cliff. Confidence issue? The $1.4M contract is a problem.
20 Aug 2023 16:07:25
so ive ben thinking
which players would you consider trading knies for? i know hes a young prospect that doesnt look out of place on the leafs, but, we need to upgrade.
id consider knies for a few players if it came with multiple years of service
trouba: is exactly the type of player the leafs need. still has 3 years on his contrat and is NYR rangers captian so its a pipe dream.
but in a deal for like Elias lindholm (50% retained this year) at 6yr x 8m extension or 7x7 for knies and a 1st would be a considearion. or in a larger package for like bedard or something absolutely crazy.
who would you guys trade him for?
1.) 20 Aug 2023 16:38:26
I'd trade him for a lot of players. The main issue is finding a team that has a solid top6/ 4 peice, they don't want, and he has to be on a rebuilding team.
2.) 20 Aug 2023 16:55:23
Hrenklin. Good question. Definitely Lindholm would be one I would consider as long as Lindholm will extend as you said. Then it would be moving Willy for younger prospects and hopefully a D.
In a package to get Dobson, I would possibly.
He is not untouchable to me, but not far off because our prospect pool is so bad for guys with size that can play.
3.) 22 Aug 2023 18:07:26
Had to think about this one for a few days. tough thing about moving Knies is the cap issues we have. so can't just be moving knies out. would still need to move Willy out. I think I'd move move him and maybe a first for Konecny. we would not need Knies if top six is like this.
Bertuzzi. Matthews. Marner
Domi. Tavares. konecny
Then maybe Willy can be moved for a topD like Dobson and something to improve bottom 6.
4.) 23 Aug 2023 01:56:35
I agree with all here.
It's a very interesting suggestion, especially because of how his end of season/ playoffs went.
Very good topic @Hrenklin
As much as I like Knies, he could be one of many that start out fantastic, and turn to poo. It's worth a look at least.
5.) 23 Aug 2023 03:14:01
@LL I agree. likethevudea if Knies and the fact he played as well as he did just jumping onto the team and blending in so well. he's at hs highest potential in a way as everyone expects good things and he worked out well. night be time to strike when iron is hot. he plays the coaches style if hockey in a rebuilding teamwhere as my original idea of moving willy there does not fit theur rebuild. konecny wont come cheap. so maybe konecny at 50% for Knies to ertson and a 1st round pick. then move Willy ut for defensive D. I like Dobson but is he not more of an offensive Dman?
03 Dec 2022 15:51:13
Thoughts on claiming Myers from the waiver wire. 2.5m is pricy, but, we can probably make some things works once players get healthy.
1.) 03 Dec 2022 22:52:43
Leafs cannot make any waiver claim at the moment.
They have 50 contracts.
31 Jul 2021 00:21:18
So what are the leafs going to give up to get pk subban at the deadline 50% retained? I think that's the top trick up dubas's sleeve.
1.) 31 Jul 2021 06:29:41
What's the point in adding PK? Is it so he can play 3rd pair?
2.) 31 Jul 2021 11:43:40
Kyle wants everyone to see him do his stupid skating drills irl so everyone can laugh.
3.) 31 Jul 2021 12:18:14
@LG lmao.
24 May 2026 15:18:01
Why trade Nylander to NY for the 18th, when Seattle is looking for star power with the #7 pick. Puts the Leafs in a better position to get one of the top dmen or c in the draft.
24 May 2026 15:16:16
Why are you trading for everyone's pick next year. This year we have the deeper draft. So it's a hard no on most of those trades.
24 May 2026 11:05:17
I think Robertson would have a solid crack at the line up.
21 May 2026 22:40:19
I don't think Trouba is interested in playing in Canada. This is my speculation since I don't know what teams he's had on his no trade lists. Ultimately it comes down to his wife's work preference, which is why he left Winnipeg in the first place. I would mostly see him landing in the metro area, maybe Washington.
20 May 2026 22:29:31
Why not sign Laughton as 3c, his offensive talent was wasted on the 4th line?
