Here’s my final Post for the summer.
(You all yell Thank goodness!!!!!)

SanJose
Rielly
Robertson
Gets them an experienced dman and a potential 20 goal scorer to add to their forward core

Leafs
27th overall draft Dagenais just to tick off the Habs ?
Which is my only motivation here…just kidding…well sort of… like the kid saw him play a handful of games who I think would be a steal at 27th

Or Roobroeck a power forward who is inconsistent but hopefully the lure of the NHL will motivate him as he can easily be top 6 even 1st line LW
Saw him play 5 times
2 times dominant
1 time ok. Just ok ?
2 times where have you gone Joe DiMaggio??

July 1
Sign Roslevic
Sign Tolvanen who I think can pot 15-20 goals from the third line and penalty kill
Sign our old friend Mikheyev can still fly solid on the pk will score 15-20 goals ?
Third Line
Mikheyev Roslevic Tolvanen

Knies Matthews Cowan
McKenna Tavares Nylander

4th Line… a work in progress…
Not a fan of this combo but what does one do with the contracts of Lorentz and Joshua??
Lorentz Quillan Joshua

I would like to see
Sim Quillan Tverberg

I’m assuming Domi is out for the year and on LTIR?

Top 6 Defence
Andrae McCabe OEL
Raddysh Tanev Carlo
7th dman Mermis or Rifai
Danford can percolate in the AHL
But is next on my depth chart for a call up…
I’m assuming Tanev will be ready come training camp?

Goalies
Stolarz.

Aka Yikes (that’s my name for him)
Hildeby I’m not sold on.
Akhtyamov may be number one by Christmas ?

Maybe sign another goalie and hope he clears waivers
Tarasov or Miftakhov or Khakonen


Have a good summer everyone ?
Be well and stay safe.

Forward mop up…

Leafs
Taylor Raddysh
Rangers
3rd 2026 Flyers pick
Joshua

Unite the Raddysh Brothers!!! ??

We sign Jenner as a free agent 4 years 4 million per

Could see Chayka signing Patrick Laine
1 year 7 million

Knies Matthews Laine
McKenna Tavares Nylander
Cowan Jenner Raddysh
Lorentz Quillan Robertson
Haymes

On D
If Rielly gets traded then would like Byram out of Buffalo
But the cost?
Cowan and Danford?
Then I created a LW hole up front…
Move Robertson 3rd line LW and Tverberg 4th line RW

Byram Tanev
McCabe Raddysh
OEL Carlo
Andrae

Stolarz
Hildeby

I read that Laine could be had for under 2 million. I think the contract would be bonus based on games played and points. I’d do it as a buffer until we see where Domi is at and see what we get out of the draft pick.


2.) 21 Jun 2026 16:12:00
Even better on Laine if that’s the cost.
Domi didn’t sound encouraging.
But I guess we’ll find out in the fall.


3.) 21 Jun 2026 21:31:35
Don’t want Laine at any price. Raddysh at 1.5m way better than keeping Joshua at 3.25 for 2 more seasons. I’d be down for that. Fido for Jenner too old. Also Byram to me is a dud. Has had one 40pt season and now he’s a great Dman.

I’m not buying it and he’s not worth Cowan and Danford. Sabres trying to unload him cause they want his cap hit gone to sign Tuch. Not giving up those guys or do done suggested Knies ?????


4.) 21 Jun 2026 22:34:27
? Laine and Petterson talks make me laugh. We’re trying not be a soft perimeter team so let’s go out and get the only two guys that are softer than Willy. ? smart fan base we have here, super knowledgeable hockey fans. I wouldn’t take Laine if they gave us 2M.

McTavish could never play with Cowan and Nylander …. He’s far too slow.

Leafs don’t need to include the first.


2.) 18 Jun 2026 09:46:35
Yes they do.
Sharks are taking Rielly's contract with no retention.


3.) 18 Jun 2026 10:59:50
No to moving Knies. Not sure why people are under estimating the value of a power forward that has skill, will fight, sticks up for teammates, can’t be knocked off a puck and battles in the tough areas. All his goals are scored right outside the crease. Who is gonna take that role? We have a bunch of perimeter players and few guys that drive the net and you goofs want to trade him. There is maybe a handful of effective power forwards in the whole league and we have 1 of them and he isn’t even in his prime yet.

Sorry to be harsh but people putting Knies in trades don’t know hockey. After watching that Stanley Cup finals, you guys still think we can win with the heartless perimeter players. Obviously every other team is inquiring about Knies, how come we don’t hear much about teams going after Willy? Because he is not a character piece that will drive a team to the finals. He is just a YouTuber with good hockey skill and IQ. But after Chyaka traded Woll for practically nothing, it wouldn’t surprise me.


4.) 18 Jun 2026 12:07:05
I don’t want to move Knies either. But if they are set on doing that, including him in this deal means you do not have to retain on Rielly.


5.) 18 Jun 2026 15:13:24
I agree with Clarky if we trade Knies and don't get absolute boatload in return, I'm out. You just don't trade players like Knies. Trade Nylander all day over Knies.


6.) 18 Jun 2026 18:12:11
Chayka not moving Knies. So where u guys are coming up with if they r set on moving Knies bs? Trev supposedly tried at deadline to Habs but I don’t believe it one bit. If he did ownership told him no way and he got canned for even suggesting it.

If u look at Chayka and what kind of GM he is he’s not going after guys like Jenner. He wants the team faster, younger and more mobile. To that point not even Tuch would be on his radar at the price he’s asking.


7.) 18 Jun 2026 21:26:52
One thing we need to be cognizant of in Trade suggestions, is when moving out players that have a lot of salary and freeing up our cap is this...... if we have a ton of cap space but don't manage to sign any top free agents. And we don't get any players of immediate value that have salaries.

We can end up signing a bunch of crap UFA's at overpayment prices. just to hit the minimum ceiling on the cap. These trades need to bring back roster players and prospects but not skew the cap to far up or to far down. It can be a fine line sometimes.

Can Nylander and McKenna get this dude going?
It’s a risk…
But if it means Rielly is out of the picture I’m all for it…

That Sabres trade is a joke
That may get you Byram's left skate
Plus you said Sabres saving salary cap?
Carlo makes 3.5, Maccelli probably 3 at least….

Yes please

I like Pavelski
