NHL rumours 5

11 Jul 2025 09:57:44
Sabres: Byram, Tuch

Leafs: Cowan, Carlo, Kampf, Robertson

11 Jul 2025 13:46:18
That's weighted pretty generously in YYZ's favour.

08 Jul 2025 10:08:51
Reilly, Cowan and Robertson for Dunn and Tolvanen.

I think the Leafs biggest need is a PP quarterback.

08 Jul 2025 23:45:02
Dunn is not the answer there. Would sooner pursue Erik Karlsson with retention. To be honest Rielly and Cowan + for Erik Karlsson and Rust or Rakell make a ton of sense for both teams.

10 Jul 2025 02:36:58
Disagree on Karlsson. 10 million for him for two more years is way to much. Dunn is much younger and makes a reasonable amount of money in comparison. Also like the thought of Tolvanen as a 3rd line guy. Solid defensively and can also put the Puck in the net.

Knies Matthews Maccelli
McMann Tavares Nylander
Domi Roy Tolvanen
Lorentz Laughton Jarnkrok (hopefully gets traded)

McCabe tanev
Dunn Carlo
Benoit OEL.

10 Jul 2025 20:39:30
Leafs don’t need a 3rd line guy tho. They have Domi, Roy and Maccelli who are not good enough for top 6 but to good for 4th line.

11 Jul 2025 17:58:51
Disagree again. Maccelli will be given the opportunity on the first line. He is known as a good set up man, just what Matthews and Knies need. His 1st 2 seasons were pretty good on a bad team, and last year he battled injuries according to reports.

08 Jul 2025 02:00:10
Not sure it works out salary cap wise.. but ..


Edmonton recieves.

Matheson
Newhook
Dobes


Habs receive

Nugent Hopkins

09 Jul 2025 17:26:25
If habs retain 50% on mattheson.

12 Jul 2025 16:06:13
I'd rather see that package go to Anaheim for Mac T.

07 Jul 2025 23:04:35
Avs get Laine and 2026 2nd rounder
Mtl gets Necas and Manson

08 Jul 2025 01:56:32
No way Colorado does that

09 Jul 2025 19:54:35
Nobody wants Laine.

10 Jul 2025 03:50:50
Id gladly keep him, if he will sign at a lower rate.!

04 Jul 2025 04:40:43
EDM - Berezkin

TBL - Howard.

09 Jul 2025 01:58:34
O’Reilly*.

02 Jul 2025 17:57:19
Toronto looking for a center and Nashville may have what they need.

TOR: Stamkos - $8,000,000
NAS: McMann and Carlo and 2026 3rd pk $4,835,000

03 Jul 2025 12:59:12
Toronto has had interest in one particular center and now is the time to make the deal.

TOR: McMann and Carlo and 2026 3rd pk $4,835,000

STL: Schenn - 2 yrs left on a 8 yr at 6.5 million.

08 Jul 2025 23:46:22
Don’t think Stamkos is worth anything without retention. Schenn does have value tho.

30 Jun 2025 23:54:46
So Marner was traded to Vegas for Roy, as Me and Chickenfoot agreed on this is officially my last post until September 1..
Have a good summer everyone and see you back in the fall, I will see what people post of course but time to get some rays and enjoy the summer 🌞
Cheers everyone and Chickenfoot you were right.
Cheers

01 Jul 2025 03:15:57
Have a good summer Pinball

01 Jul 2025 04:21:23
🤜🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦.

30 Jun 2025 13:12:57
Kyrou
Leddy (cap dump)

Vs

Matheson
Dach
Struble
2nd Pick

Thoughts ?
STL clear cap space, get a good defenseman ans take a shot at Dach. Habs get the Center they are looking for.

01 Jul 2025 03:16:40
Isn't Kyrou a winger???

01 Jul 2025 13:55:56
Kyrou is a RW.

Happy 🇨🇦 Day🎆🎇.

01 Jul 2025 14:07:21
Winger and center.

01 Jul 2025 17:33:20
Thats completely horrible. Blues need righthanded younger dman. Kyrou is not a center and MTL unless wanting to trade reinbacher have nothing blues want. Also when day one comes blues have 7 mil in cap. lol 70 point fast winger for trash lol.

02 Jul 2025 15:18:24
How you feeling after that trade Bolduc trade @Colt55?

07 Jul 2025 14:57:52
I really liked bolduc but getting a young top 4 RHD to replace an aging faulk was a need. We have Kyrou, Buch, Holloway, Snuggerud, Neighbors, Dvorsky and now Carbenou who just dazzeled in camp on the wings. Bolduc was traded from a strength for a weakness. PM compares Malli to a you bouchard. so tell me if that happens is it worth it.

09 Jul 2025 18:20:34
Meh I'm not a big Bouchard guy. I personally see Mailloux looking like the Florida Panthers version of Seth Jones if he hits his peak. Tbh that wouldn't be too bad for the Blues. Bolduc is coming off a pretty successful back half of the season so immediate winners I see being the Habs. If everyone develops and progresses as they should it will probably be a fairly even across the board trade.

29 Jun 2025 16:30:29
So this Marner thing is now a soap opera, possible tampering charges etc. Right now Vegas has 5,600.000 in cap space and will have to clear cap to even sign Marner, so if that's the case I have a trade proposal to fix it all.

Toronto Trades
Marner
McMann
Danford (OHL)

Vegas Trades
Hertl
Barbashev


This will give Vegas 16 million in cap space to sign Marner, Vegas get's Marner, McMann plus prospect Danford, Leafs help themselves picking up 2 top 6 players in Hertl and Barbashev, any tampering is over and everyone is happy, yes I said I believe Marner still signs in Toronto but if he doesn't this is my last post until September.
Cheers.

29 Jun 2025 23:33:09
If I was Vegas, I'd just wait and sign him for free.

30 Jun 2025 12:44:58
The leafs have threatened to put tampering charges against Vegas if he signs with them in offseason. It sounds like if a sign and trade isn’t made Vegas if he does end up signing him as a FA they will lose their 1st round pick. Not sure if it disappears like what happened with New Jersey with the Kovy situation or if it goes to leafs.

30 Jun 2025 13:18:04
From what I've read Toronto could end up with the draft picks or cash. It would also void the contract. I imagine Trev is asking for Roy and Barbashev in a sign and trade plus a pick of some sort. Will be interesting to see how it plays out. Based on what Friedman said the league is waiting to make an example out of someone for tampering so we'll see what happens.

30 Jun 2025 16:38:30
Most teams are negotiating with upcoming free agents at this time of the year but only the desperate Leafs will threaten tampering charges. What a classy organization.

30 Jun 2025 17:23:47
If Vegas has talked to marner, marner would be fined 1 mil. Team could be 5mil in fines. I hope the nhl says you forfeit all of next years picks + next 1st. They do it every year.

30 Jun 2025 18:08:53
It's a hard thing to prove. A lot of the blame would fall on Mitch's agent. I've seen the same thing @Shootsmcgee, potentially even the picks going to the offended team. There's definitely some sour grapes action going on here from the Leafs side, but I feel like this would happen with any team who is losing a top player. I think the grey area is that technically Vegas still needs permission to be negotiating a contract with Marner's agent and I don't think that's happened. I could be wrong on some of that as I didn't dive too deep into it.

30 Jun 2025 22:12:12
Marner is officially a Golden Knight. Take the next two months off Pinball.

Clearly Vegas wants the spring off too. Welcome to the Marner era.

Treliving is a very good NHL GM, and Dubas is not. Congrats to leaf fans on the great negotiations on Tavares and Knies. Dubas would have spent much more.

29 Jun 2025 16:01:04
Tor: knies

LA: Byfield


Yes I know knies is a great player. But so is Byfield, leafs need a long term center behind Matthews.

30 Jun 2025 12:45:15
I’d take Byfield here.

28 Jun 2025 00:09:35
Montréal has to call Florida and acquire Lundell!! Adding him would catapult habs into contention for years to come! That’s exactly what Hugo said they’d do!
MTL offers : matheson 50% retained, Logan Mailloux, 2nd round and 3rd
To panthers for : Lundell
Or : matheson 50% retained or Mailloux and top 5 protected 2026 1st round
For lundell
Habs would then trade price to sharks
This leaves habs with plenty of money to resign Hutson and demidov to long term extensions
2026 lineup
Slavkosky Suzuki caufield
Demidov lundell Laine
Newhook dach Gallagher
Anderson evans Florian or ufa corey Perry
Dcore of
Hutson reinbacher
Guhle Dobson
Xehjaj carrier

I don’t see FLA giving up a piece of their present two-time Cup winning team for Matheson + futures.

When you’re at the top you’re not thinking about building, you’re thinking about staying where you’re at.

FLA will go hard at repeating and they have an excellent shot at achieving something special IMHO.
