TML? More like FML, amirite? Yet Another Off Season Thread

What goalie is worth a first that's reasonably available? Their value is usually pretty low compared to other positions.
I mean, our first is what, like late 20s? I'd say we can grab whoever we think is the best goalie in the draft, unless there's some superstar prospect who's ranked to go earlier.

My only point was, rather than blow another 1st on some fucking vet goaltender who may promptly stink up the joint on arrival, I'd much rather use it to draft the best one this year. In a world where those are the only two choices with the 1st, that's what I'd do. But obviously there are other options.
 
Even a guy like Vasilevskiey didn't make an impact in the NHL until year 3, and wasn't a starter until year 5.

Not saying don't draft goalies, they should, but thats not helping for a bit.
Wasn't suggesting it would help us anytime soon.

Just saying it's an utter waste to use a 1st to trade for an older goalie.
 
Just reading the Reilly stuff. I’m not sour on him at all. However, him being part of the defence almost definitely means you shouldn’t have any other one dimensional dmen back there.

As many have already said he needs sheltering and we then can’t also shelter another offensive guy. This is why I really like Sandin but could see him not working with our current d unless we moved Rielly(not happening).
 
(no one has said that Rielly isn't great)
This worst defensive dman on the team stuff, brings every player he plays with down, trade calls, and so on sound like he's pretty not great.

Meanwhile, he's our top horse who helped lead the team to its best finish ever.

He's amazing, yes. But you often mistake amazing and flawless. He's not flawless. Neither is Tavares. Neither is Muzzin! But the Leafs have more Rielly types than Muzzin's in the pipeline. For that reason, people are willing to think about trading him.

When did I say he's flawless? Just saying he's a great player, just like Tavares.
