Reaves for Tanev - who says no?

As an aside, looking at Doms model to see the difference in between the Leafs and Canes/Kings, and they don’t have anywhere near the top end talent, but both only have 2 negative players (Drury/Deangelo and Anderson-Dollan/Bjornfot).
The Leafs have 7 below -2. They really need to use their analytics department to find good depth players. It’s not even like they are spending scraps on those positions. They are spending $11 mill on 4 of those 7 (Klingberg, Domi, Kampf, Reaves).
Feel like it's too early to start talking waste of a season. We're second in P% in our division?
Wasted season if they don't do anything. Because they are not winning a cup in their current form. And they will do something so it's not too early to say that because moves will be made!Feel like it's too early to start talking waste of a season. We're second in P% in our division?
It may be common sense to us, but it's not for everyone. This is why miracles are required:even just matthews and marner playing better which they're totally capable of and klingberg taking a permanent vacay to robidas island is gonna make us look better.
i don't think miracles are required. hit on the dman, pls.
I like the idea of turning Niemela into a trade chip. Have to start thinking about using some of their prospects as currency to obtain a long-term piece on the back end. I don't know if Hanifin is that guy (if he is I hope he comes with an extension) but they do require one. I know we like to pretend the depth thing is the only thing that would improve the team, but more than one thing can be true. Clean up the depth and get a top pair d (ideally a long-term piece) and I put this team up against anyone.
For sure, much prefer trading late 1sts than a prospect that is nearly fully baked for a rental. Niemela or even Minten (as much as it pains me because I love me a center prospect) could be moved for the right guy tbh. Knies, Cowan and Robertson are nearly untouchable for me. Nearly.As long as it's long term, I approve. I don't want to fire 1sts and good prospects out the door at rentals though.
More "Muzzin" deals, less "Foligno" deals.
Then who would give up goals, not score goals, dominate OT faceoffs, and enforce with extreme prejudice??As an aside, looking at Doms model to see the difference in between the Leafs and Canes/Kings, and they don’t have anywhere near the top end talent, but both only have 2 negative players (Drury/Deangelo and Anderson-Dollan/Bjornfot).

The Gustafsson trade did though. And as we know now, that was one of the best trades in the history of the Leafs. It's too bad Keefe didn't recognize it.Even the Muzzin trade didn’t cost Sandin/Lilly.
