2019-2020 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

I've wanted Vatanen for a while, but that makes zero sense now that the team has Barrie, who is better and costing the Leafs less.

Unless it's Vatanen for Ceci, then I'll take it.

Eklund has Vatanen to Leafs (E4) that's nearly a done deal!!

I don't want either of those players.

Vatanen?s a little hard to get a good read on, as he?s played on pretty poor teams the last couple years. He?s probably an upgrade on Ceci, and, as a pending UFA with a similar cap hit, that?s a swap I think could benefit the Leafs. Simmonds, in the other hand, just looks like he?s flat out done as a productive NHL player. If he was making close to the league minimum, he could be a useful 4th lone/depth option, but with a $5M cap got? Hardest of hard passes.

Goalie on waivers alert. Comrie's (very limited/spread out) NHL numbers aren't great. But he's a young guy with promise. We'll see how desperate Dubas is here.

Comrie's numbers are really really bad. Even his AHL numbers aren't inspiring.
 
In before the roster freeze, and non-emergency insofar as I can tell

There is a totally ordinary method used to convert emergency recalls to regular recalls that could have been employed for these two players. There has been no explanation why that wasn?t used unless there was a desire to have these two players at practices with the Marlies and the Leafs.

No cap savings or any other advantaged is gained by these moves.

I mean I'm pretty sure that exact same comment has been getting said about our management and coaching group ever since Shanahan came aboard.
