freester Posted August 8, 2020 Report Share Posted August 8, 2020 They will be unloading some forwards Nylander? Manner? Kerfoot, Kapanen to acquire some Right sided defense. Would you trade Risto for William Nylander? Leafs need to unload cap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nylander has an average of 6.9 million while Risto is 5.3 million and is only signed for 2 more years. It definitely saves Leafs cap space.

We've discussed this to death on this board. There are virtually no teams with a surplus of good RD and excess cap space and interested in acquiring a high priced Right winger. Buffalo and Toronto make perfect trade partners other than being bitter rivals. I still think it’s more likely Toronto trades us Kerfoot and Kapanen and I doubt Nylander would want to come to Buffalo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freester Posted August 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 Well now I feel better about this thread. Leafs are lacking defense. Sabres leafs trade could happen soon just to quiet two disgruntled fan bases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taro T Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) There are enough other teams with movable pieces that could help the Sabres that there is no way the Sabres should trade with them unless they are somehow insane enough to trade away Marner for what Nylander is worth. That team hasn't had a REAL D-man in ages. Would hate to be a fan of the team that finally sends them one. As long as their D is what it currently is, Andersson will never be good enough. Which is good. Edited August 10, 2020 by Taro T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zamboni Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 Risto, Montour or McCabe, 2021 1st (not top 10 protected) for Marner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob_sauve28 Posted August 10, 2020 Report Share Posted August 10, 2020 Must be tough to watch that Leafs team knowing how much they paid for all that talent and then they can’t score a goal in a deciding playoff game. Thunk! Wow, what a disaster. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do Sabres fans feel they need to give up the farm on every trade we make? They aren’t trading Marner. Sending Risto to a division rival is not smart. Tossing in a Unprotected first would be very dumb. Edited August 12, 2020 by Pimlach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I agree that Toronto isn't going to trade Marner, but the proposed trade is far from giving up the farm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunk! Wow, what a disaster. As a Sabres fan I know the feeling. Not about us scoring in a playoff game (because its been so long since we've been in one) or about paying for talent (see half our roster), but i can still relate lol. I'm still optimistic we'll get this thing turned around though... one day. It's always darkest before the dawn & we haven't seen sunshine in a decade. But while i think its extremely unlikely they'll trade a Marner, after getting knocked out of the playoffs in the 1st round for what, the 3rd season in a row if im not mistaken? There very well could be some thoughts that what they have now isn't working & to take an area of strength to fill out a big area of weakness.
