The Official 2026 Off-Season Thread: Revenge of the Nerds

Best part is, if Raddysh is in, Carlo’s departure must be imminent.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Ach, now I’m worried about the trade capital. TB probably doesn’t want to help us land him and keep him in the division without something more substantial than what they normally would get for a few days. Just hope it’s Maccelli and not Robertson or someone I’d miss.

Love how aggressive Chayka is.

This is a little better than doing nothing and spending our cap space on Joshua.

We can go 8 with Raddysh with a S+T, right?

So 8x8 likely if that's the case?

If this gets done we're at

McCabe -Raddysh
Rielly -Tanev
Andrae-OEL

With Carlo still to be traded. And maybe Mo. What a huge improvement already tho.

K now maybe trade Mo to de-risk bit

 

[UWHabs]

Big deal, both in scope and value.

Not a fan of giving 8 years and big money to a one year break out d-man who is 30; does fill a big need though. Have to think one of Rielly/Carlo is gone

They had to do this. Brad still wouldn't have. But they had to take this risk.

Sure but if you think about it, it’s just Rielly money so we’re only paying him to score 40 points and not know how to play d.

 

[Feyd]

Does this mean the Leafs finally have a D-man that can shoot the puck?

 

[hockeylover]

Starting to lean with zeke that they won't move Rielly tbh.

 

[Kritter]

Its going to be telling what we had to give TB for these rights.

 

[leafman101]

The one thing with Mo… both offensive dmen Chayka has acquired are good defensively.

 

[Preston]

I don't think I want this and the mo contract on the books. But IDK how difficult it would be to improve on Mo. That takes priority before you trade him.
