I don't want to trade McKenna but the Vancouver wants him really bad. McKenna could turn into the next big thing so you convinced me but it's going to cost you dearly if you want him that bad.

TML McKenna
VAN 2026 1st (3) 2026 1st (24) 2027 1st F. Hronek

You have to remember if you want him that bad be prepared to pay.

Hronek and the 3rd plus another pick should be good.

09 Jun 2026 10:57:46
Do the Leafs even have him? Are they guaranteed to pick him?

I believe there is too much drama surrounding McKenna and could be a problem in the room when it matters. I would rather go with a guy like Stenberg if I were the Sedins. He is a better 5 vs 5 player and the stats tend to say that.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Jun 2026 19:41:18
I would be happy to trade down to 3 and draft Reid. If you can get Hronek in the trade down scenario, a defense looks like this...

McCabe Hronek
Carlo Tanev
OEL Reid.



I would be good with that. Trade Reilly and Benoit for what you can get. Keep Stecher as a 7 dman. Hopefully get the 24th pick as well and use it in a trade on a good forward.

While Habs search for second line center.

I’ll be throwing out ideas until we get him!

Who says no?
Mtl trades with Columbus.
Mtl sends: Hage and Kapanen.

Jackets sends: Fantili.

Leafs - Guhle

Habs - Knies

Hab fan here who thinks this would be an over pay but interested to hear what Leaf fans think.

Not bad for either side. Personally I’d rather Knies but could see Toronto doing it if they are desperate for dmen.

STL will trade Kyrou for Kapanen straight up.

Agree0 Disagree0

01 Jun 2026 17:07:33
I'm good keeping Knies.

Guhle's durability has a lot to be desired. Kapanen had a pretty good year, but I am unsure if he will be able to duplicate it again. And I just honestly haven't watched enough of Beck to know what is worth is at.

Knies brings physicality, a strong net front presence, and is signed to a pretty gpod contract.

I would rather hold onto that and see what happens with the draft, FA, and with a few of our AHLers needing genuine looks at the NHL level to see where we are at.

So Blues lose Kyrou and Jiricek for a 3rd.

Lmfao Kyrou is better than Eklund and Jiricek was defenseman of the year in the OHL.... How does this make since for Blues horrible.

Agree0 Disagree0

28 May 2026 14:18:36
St Louis gets nothing for a top line right winger. The expected return features at least a 1st and a top prospect.

Agree0 Disagree0

29 May 2026 03:39:09
Kyrou got 46 points and has been on the block for years now. Eklund is 4 years younger and 3 million cheaper with potentially similar offense. How is Eklund nothing, he had the better season?

Agree2 Disagree0

29 May 2026 13:27:50
Kyrou had a bad year. He has had 3 70+ point seasons prior. So the better player is Kyrou and then you take the Blues #2 prospects for nothing. This is worse then bad. It's just plain dumb

Agree0 Disagree0

29 May 2026 23:14:03
Fair enough. But if he has another bad year he’ll be negative value. Also Eklund has had a better start to his career, Don’t know enough about him but he could easily outscore Kyrou again next season.

Agree0 Disagree0

01 Jun 2026 14:43:35
4 years of 30+ goals and 70+ points and one bad year he has negative value. Get the f outa here. Also Jirecek was the best OHL dman last year and he is just a throw in Lmfao for 3rd rnd picks.

Get a grip.

Agree0 Disagree0

01 Jun 2026 17:12:44
Definitely a down year for Kyrou. Blues likely hold onto him until they get the offer they want for him. See how his knee is doing after his procedure on it.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Jun 2026 01:07:53
I definitely said 2 years. Two years of 45 points making over 8 million, what would you expect for him?

MG69 I don’t think the Blues will give him away. They’d be getting a young top 6 forward on a better contract back.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Jun 2026 13:42:17
Bro you still don't seem to grasp 3 years of 30+ goals, 70 points. Also Jiricek was the best RHD man in the OHL last year. They project him to be like Pietrangelo. Yet he is a throw in for a lesser player in Eklund who makes 2 mil less than a 30 goals scorer. Get an effin grip.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Jun 2026 17:24:03
Eklund is going to be a great player in his own right, there just isn't an urgency yet for the Blues to move Kyrou or Thomas for that matter. They set the asking price high for both of them and likely won't budge off of that price until they have to.

The Blues aren't hard pressed for cap space and can only hope that Kyrou has a rebound year to increase his value.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Jun 2026 22:37:42
Bro you’ve made a false claim in every reply.

Fact: Eklund is 4.5 years younger.
Fact: Eklund makes 2.5M less.
Fact: Eklund had more points this season.
Fact: Eklund has had a better start to his career.

Kyrou has been rumoured to be on the block for years. Not saying he gets moved and not saying he doesn’t bounce back. But currently they have a diminishing asset and this trade there getting a good player back.

Agree1 Disagree0

03 Jun 2026 03:02:11
If Eklund is as good as you advertised, why are you suggesting that San Jose would trade him for the corpse of Darnell Nurse, a D prospect, and a 3rd round pick that will be in the 85-96th range?

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Jun 2026 08:34:04
He’s also been rumoured to be on the block. Sharks are going to probably draft another high end forward and they need help on D.

Nurse, like Kyrou, had a down year offensively but he usually ranks high in even strength points. He’s been rumoured to be connected to the Sharks.

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Jun 2026 13:41:18
Ebs kyrou is not diminishing returns lol. Also the top rhd d prospect in the ohl is not a freaking throw in. Jiricek is not for say and kyrou is most likely being traded for mctavish..


We dont need eklund nobody is taking the trash called nurse.. and edm 3rds dont have value.

Agree2 Disagree0

03 Jun 2026 18:27:50
McTavish and Eklund probably have similar values. All that whining for nothing. Eklund probably more.

Nurse is overpaid and his value is a bit of a mystery but after this discussion I learnt he ranks 9th over his career (9 seasons) in even strength points for D.

Agree0 Disagree0

03 Jun 2026 21:05:15
Nobody wants Nurse. Eklund is a winger. McTavish is a center.

Once again you have failed to show the value in trading a better player in Kyrou for a lesser in Eklund and then have the Blues best defensive prospect add in for notthing.

Agree1 Disagree0

03 Jun 2026 22:29:51
I think McTavish was playing wing after being healthy scratched wasn’t he?

Is McTavish better than Kyrou? I’ll concede the Blues might go in a different direction but still an interesting trade in my opinion.

Now I’m hoping Kyrou has another down year.

Agree0 Disagree0

04 Jun 2026 14:08:16
Lol the entire Blues had a down year and then they came back and were on fire. Jiricek will be playing in the NHL next year. Kyrou will be back to normal.
The fact that you hope for another down year shows you know he is the better player.

Agree0 Disagree0

3rd Round Pick 2027 (Leafs Pick)*

Toronto Trades
Matthews
Rielly

*3rd Round Pick 2027 was originally traded to Utah for Maccelli.



Thoughts?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

23 May 2026 17:07:15
I think that a healthy Matthews alone would demand that return. However I can't see Matthews wanting to play in Utah so this trade is a no go.

Agree2 Disagree0

23 May 2026 20:12:08
I would rather have Cooley and Sergachev than Matthews in my opinion. Desnoyers could end up being top 6 forward as well. Where Utah is keep all the youth and move forward with them as they have top line players already in the lineup.

Agree3 Disagree0

31 May 2026 11:27:33
Why would the Mammoth even consider this deal? How does it make them better now or in the future? Rielly has negative value with that contract. Two top 6 centers and a stud top four defenceman. I guarantee you are not a Mammorh fan if you posted this trade.

Agree1 Disagree0

31 May 2026 15:11:02
Matthews will command a haul. It will be at least a piece more than the Quinn Hughes trade.

This might be too much though but it depends on the bidding war.

Utah would be better off keeping those 2.

Agree4 Disagree0

22 May 2026 16:18:17
Utah wouldn't want to pick up so many costly contracts. Two bottom-six forwards, an aging, in-decline Rielly, and an expensive, often injured backup goalie in Woll.
Without the Leafs including a 2nd round pick as a sweetener, which they can't afford to do, this trade wouldn't happen.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Jun 2026 11:06:48
Utah passes. Stay with the youth... no need to bring a large contract and even larger ego into your dressing room.

Min: Kaprizov, Gustavsson, Errikson Ek, Middleton

NJ: J Hughes, L Hughes, Markstrom, Glass


Trying to figure out a framework that would make Minny land the Hughes brothers while NJ gets a goalie with more term.

Minny laughs in your face.

Agree1 Disagree0

21 May 2026 14:58:54
Why does Minny laugh, they upgrade center, and get 3 of the 4 Hughes brothers, so likely Quinn now guaranteed to resign. Maybe even for less than 17m. They get out of the last 3 years of Gustavssons 6.25 AAV contract for 2yr at 6m.

Agree0 Disagree0

22 May 2026 16:21:00
This seems like an interesting and fair trade if all 3 Hughes brothers sign extensions.

Island. Jack and Luke don't need extensions for years.

17 May 2026 23:38:23
This post is based on some stories that I have read and so is influenced on if there is some truth to them.

Toronto / Calgary trade.

Toronto:

1st overall pick 2026

Calgary:

Morgan Frost
Martin Pospisil
Zack Whitecloud
Devan Cooly
Henry Mews / Aydar Suniev
Cole Reschny
2026 6th or the Vegas's pick

Toronto will most likely need one or two people to make the cap work and if is a bad contract that pick would be the Vegas's.

Before you say no way .... Some reporters have said that Gavin McKenna has said in the past that he would like to play for the Calgary Flames as he grew up as a fan, yes that doesn't mean much but in Gavin case with him in the NCAA when he is done there and doesn't sign a contract with the team that drafts him, he will become a free agent.

So if there is truth to the stories is it not best to get something for him then nothing, this is not unheard of for a NCAA to do point in fact Adam Fox did it to Calgary not long ago. Calgary benefit is they get him faster.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

18 May 2026 01:06:15
The Leafs need many depth pieces but will this return be good enough for the 1st overall pick?
I believe that the Leafs would be better off getting a top line player and a high 1st round pick for their #1 pick.

Agree3 Disagree0

19 May 2026 15:51:15
Yeah, solid no.

Agree2 Disagree0

20 May 2026 00:36:09
I wonder if Toronto trades out of top5, does that pick then go to Boston as it is only top5 protected?

Agree0 Disagree0

20 May 2026 06:34:14
No chance the return wouldn’t include the 6th overall pick.

Agree1 Disagree0

09 Jun 2026 11:08:21
So Calgary, I had one pick... can you send me most or your team please? lol. Not a chance.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Jun 2026 14:41:05
This would be a solid no, since McKenna is unproven in the NHL at this stage. Since CGY is in a total rebuild, there is too many pieces of the rebuild that would be given away.

If I were Toronto, I would send Matthews to another team in exchange for some firsts etc. To build a team properly, you have to start at the back end, work work your way up front.

Agree0 Disagree0

Utah Trades
Cooley
Hayton
Guenther
Crouse
Sergachev

Toronto Trades
Matthews
Domi
Cowan
Rielly
Stolarz

Cap Wise it's a wash, and any player with a NTC/NMC will have to waive it, but it would be the biggest splash in the off season for both teams, with Utah getting the best player with Matthews in this proposal.

Maybe a crazy take but does Utah trade Guenther for Matthews straight up? Even considering an extension, Guenther will be half price and 6 years younger.
