Toronto Maple Leafs Rumours

03 Feb 2026 02:17:53
This is a crazy trade idea that I don’t think would happen, but imo wouldn’t be too off . MTL trades with Toronto which would help habs now and in the future while also giving Toronto enough pieces to do a proper rebuild

MTL sends : hage, reinbacher, dach, 26 1st, 27 1st, 26 2nd and 27 2nd
Toronto sends : mathews and knies

Caufield Suzuki knies
Slafkovsky mathews demidov
Bolduc kapanen Newhook
Texier Evans Anderson

Hutson Dobson
Matheson guhle
Engstrom Pickford

Fowler/ dobes
With the cap skyrocketing, bad contracts coming off the book and the core all signed to long term deals, habs wouldn’t have any problem extending demidov and mathews to long term deals

I just feel that demidov/ mathews combo is match made in heaven with slaf as great compliment, not to mention knies is the perfect fit for Suzuki/ caufield.

Colorado:
B. McMann

Toronto:
2nd 2027
2nd 2028

San Jose:
W. Nylander
N. Robertson

Toronto:
M. Misa
S. Dickinson.

29 Jan 2026 06:31:10
I dont see McMann having value of 2 second round picks. the second trade seems ok. but moving these players doesn't solve your main issue. when you have a supposed leader showing up when he feels like it, you won't win.

29 Jan 2026 11:45:51
Nylander might be the only guy on the team that deserves to stay.

29 Jan 2026 16:36:16
Doubt Habs could get him, but id like McMann on 4th line.. like his grit.

31 Jan 2026 22:03:38
Why would San Jose do that?

06 Jan 2026 18:32:06
Vancouver:
M. Rielley D

Toronto:
J. Debrusk Rw.

08 Jan 2026 05:26:36
This was funny.

02 Jan 2026 03:28:46
If leafs are out of it by the deadline. Just blow it up now.

Leafs - Mathews

Sharks - Misa, Dickinson, 1st and a cap dump.

02 Jan 2026 15:21:04
San Jose has no interest in destroying its rebuild.

02 Jan 2026 17:08:00
For just over 2 years of Matthews?

03 Jan 2026 21:54:51
Sharks already have a better franchise player in Celebrini. I see him in that State, just wearing Kings colors.

27 Dec 2025 01:05:24
Mtl:Dobes, Gallagher

Toronto:Stolartz,Knies(3 million retain)

04 Jan 2026 12:17:42
Montreal declines.

Leafs need more on RW and The Canucks need more on LW.

Van wants picks.

19 Dec 2025 14:06:21
BumblebeeTuna_18
Source that says Vancouver wants picks for Garland?

21 Dec 2025 02:47:19
They want to be younger AND talented. It seems most toronto fans want to dismiss N Robertson.

I think Van can do better elsewhere

22 Dec 2025 00:17:32
Horrible trade, no comments in favour, yet 7 upvotes?

You look foolish when you obviously upvote your own posts Pinball.

31 Dec 2025 14:37:46
Chickenfoot,
I never ever upvote myself and if I crash and burn I crash and burn.
So you're wrong that I do that.

09 Dec 2025 22:13:12
Nashville Trades
FForsberg

Toronto Trades
Domi
Woll

Preds going nowhere fast again this season get Woll even though injured his ceiling is high, Domi fills in probably on the second line at Centre.
Leafs probably still looking for that Marner replacement and getting FForsberg would certainly help going forward this season.



Thoughts ?

10 Dec 2025 17:32:37
Geez pinball how about Nashville throw in Josi as well. Lol.

11 Dec 2025 18:53:17
Jesus man. The only way this works is on Chel with force trades on. Nashville may be going nowhere fast, but we aren't exactly playing lights out either lol. And just because they aren't playing well doesn't mean they are going to give top players away either.

14 Dec 2025 14:37:40
Toronto needs to get a top notch goaltender, which has been lacking for years now. I would be looking to get that spot locked down first as there is enough scoring on the front end.

22 Dec 2025 00:19:55
Leafs, like NSH, going nowhere fast too. Both need to rebuild and get younger.

03 Dec 2025 22:41:41
I feel Austin Matthews glory days in Toronto are over. Yes, he will be there, but I dont think he totally wants to be . He seems better suited as an LA King . So in off-season.

To LA
Austin Matthews
Morgan Reilly

To Torono
Quentin Byfield
Brandt Clarke
Carter George
2026 1st Rnd
2027 2nd rnd

Leafs fans...would you do this..?

04 Dec 2025 01:35:40
Bro. You’re high on some rubbish I’d love to have right now if you think the leafs are getting all that for that package.

04 Dec 2025 04:59:40
TheDawg.... haha.. I wish I was . But ya, maybe Kings wouldn't do that.

04 Dec 2025 16:01:42
Teams are going to be wary about trading for the often injured Matthews and a declining Reilly. The Leafs won't get as much of a return for them as Leaf fans and media would would believe.

05 Dec 2025 11:39:08
I don't disagree that trading Capt Ego would be a bad thing. but that's alot for LA to give up. no way 3 young players and 2 high draft o8cks. . peel it back again and repost.

05 Dec 2025 19:33:00
Hmm retry hey,, well this is why I shouldn't post Trade proposals hahah.
As much as I dont care for the player , hes still a very valuable commodity.
Any of you guys see a scenario where the Leafs and Kings could make a gold deal here?

07 Dec 2025 13:16:27
SOSA: I can see Matthews in LA, and I can see LA wanting Matthews. I can also foresee Treliving realizing the need to rebuild is now and grab some young players and picks for his star.

The decision-making in some markets is hampered for non-hockey reasons. Some owners meddle (VAN) and some take a long time to reach a consensus. (The leafs and flames fall into this category. )

I think you’ve tapped into something here with proposing a Matthews trade. Whether Treliving can convince the board of the need to trade Matthews to start a rebuild is an open question. Hockey reasons scream YES, but Rogers likes having him in their marketing campaigns too.

Though the return from LA likely to be quite as generous, and Rielly is unlikely to waive his NTC for family reasons, I think you’re on to something that may well happen this summer. ?.

07 Dec 2025 16:47:00
I think Mathews for Byfield and Clarke would be fair. Remove Rielly and the other pieces.

02 Dec 2025 15:13:06
To PHI

Connor Garland

To Van

2027 1st round pick

Flyers have 2 first round picks, Toronto's and their own.

Garland has played his best hockey under coach Tochette. Toilette knows how to deploy Garland.

Van needs to get younger. They need to rebuild properly.

03 Dec 2025 13:03:29
connor garland is not worth a 1st.

26 Nov 2025 21:07:07
Toronto sends Matthews, Reilly, Cowan and Danford to the Canucks for Petterson and Hughes. Shake up for both teams without going rebuild.

Reilly might waive to go home.

26 Nov 2025 22:17:07
This kind of kitchen sink trade is always fun, and it’s such a hard year to put trades together, so why not?

In my humble opinion, both teams need to get real and rebuild. The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. Neither team wants to delay the inevitable and waste valuable time.

Matthews looks ridiculous wearing the “C”. He is a great goal scorer when healthy, period. But a “leader” he is not. Meanwhile, Tavares looks like a new man without the C and with his new team-friendly deal.

27 Nov 2025 15:26:48
"The best time to plant a tree was 20 years. "

Good one Chickenfoot. I like that!

Happy US Thanksgiving.

29 Nov 2025 00:59:16
why would Canucks trade one disinterested player for a more expensive one.

03 Dec 2025 15:15:20
???????.

26 Oct 2025 06:20:10
TOR Receives:
Weegar
Farabee
2026 3rd round pick

CGY Receives:
Cowan
Robertson
2026 2nd round pick
2027 5th round pick


Ii know there will be a lot of leafs fans on here id even suggest trading Cowan but I think this is fair value. Toronto desperately needs help on D and the fact they couldn't get anything for Marner means they need to bounce back with a win now trade or risk losing the 3 Atlantic spots to FLA, MTL, DET.

As for Calgary they get a nice offensive prospect that won't be ready for 1-2 years which fits if they are able to score a top 5 pick this year, they get someone younger to replace farabee which hasn't worked and then they upgrade a 3 to a 2

26 Oct 2025 17:46:16
Calgary would get better offers than that.

26 Oct 2025 19:03:03
I'm sure you are joking, Calgary should lock Leaf's phone number with a proposal like that.

27 Oct 2025 23:59:47
CGY will so much better trading Weegar alone.

26 Nov 2025 15:20:20
Actually, to all you TO fans. As a Flames fan I feel it our obligation to provide you with WEEGAR (75% retained), ANDERSON (75% retained) and take Domi and whatever other dud you feel we deserve!

Buffalo Trades
Tuch*

Toronto Trades
NRobertson
Valis (AHL)
Danford (OHL)

*Sabres retain 50% of Tuch's expiring contract.


Thoughts ?

15 Oct 2025 18:39:33
Not enough from the Leafs for Tuch with that big of a retention.

15 Oct 2025 19:44:43
Pinball……you have to give something to get something. Can’t just keep packaging the same fringe players to get a top six forward.

16 Oct 2025 13:23:52
Nathan, that is Pinball's shtick. The something for nothing trade.

18 Oct 2025 14:45:35
No offence but that’s a terrible trade that greatly benefits the Leafs. I don’t think you could even pull this off on NHL 26.

They Sabres would want at least a 1st rounder in return, which the Leafs don’t have.

25 Sep 2025 16:39:56
Buffalo Trades
Tuch

Toronto Trades
NRobertson
Hildeby (AHL)
Danford (OHL)

Leafs will have to shed some Cap unless Buffalo will retain some salary on Tuch's expiring contract, but where Buffalo is and where Toronto is this proposal makes sense for both teams imo.



Thoughts ?

25 Sep 2025 17:15:40
If Tuch was to be officially on the market there would be significant interest. Zero chance BUF would bite on this offer. The player and the team seem happy together for the moment, but if that changed, Tuch would command a sizeable return.

26 Sep 2025 15:47:13
Teams can't expect to get a very good player from teams for bottom six players and unproven AHL ones. The Leafs would have to give up Cowen and a #1 pick, if they had one, to get the Sabres to even consider a trade for Tuch.

28 Sep 2025 21:23:35
Maybe if Tuch says he only wants to go to the Leafs, otherwise we don't have the pieces to compete with most teams to get him.

Idk why you are so eager to trade Danford tho. Our defense is on the older side. He plays a simple game like Tanev. He's a righty. I'd rather hold on to him.

Robertson is what he is. He'd be a throw in on this deal and throw ins don't move the needle.

05 Oct 2025 17:58:46
Not even Kevyn Adams would make a move this bad.

06 Oct 2025 19:10:35
Zero chance that THREE people upvoted this proposal that weren’t named “Pinball”?.

22 Sep 2025 17:34:23
Sharks Trade
Toffoli

Leafs Trade
Domi
McMann
Kampf

Any player with a NTC/NMC will have to waive to complete this trade proposal.


Leafs get a very serviceable RWinger to replace Marner, as well as downsize the forwards currently on the roster as there are too many, Leafs add 1.5 million in this proposal for more Cap Space.

Sharks a team looking to add some veterans to this young very talented group they are building, this 3 for 1 adds much needed depth as well.



Thoughts ?

24 Sep 2025 14:05:18
- Toffoli is a 30 goal scorer in each of the last 3 years, so he’s definitely better than serviceable.

- by all accounts he’s been a great vet in SJ, and has really taken to his role. He seems to enjoy it there, and if he’s going to waive, it would only be to go to a team with a legitimate shot at a Cup.

- SJ is looking to play more kids. Why would they want to block 3 development paths like this? Also, where’s the picks or prospects any rebuilding team needs to have?

- Quantity ≠ Quality, and it never will.

Yep Pinball is back being September.



Thoughts ?

05 Sep 2025 20:31:14
Yup……. more lopsided trades. ??.

05 Sep 2025 20:57:49
Nashan
Tuch is a trade chip and not to get another older player like Tuch as Buffalo is in a rebuild.
NRobertson with another team is probably a 20 to 25 Goal Winger and Danford is a very good prospect.
How you look at this as being lopsided is confusing.

05 Sep 2025 22:41:32
Welcome back Pinball. You’re a man of your word.

This is an unbelievably one-sided, homer-trade, but you’re a man of your word, and that’s more important. I hope you enjoy the season ahead?

P. S. I think your beloved team will play with more balls and respectability than in past years. They are more of a Treliving team and less of a Dubas team, so while they won’t hoist a Cup, I think they’ll look a lot less petulant and silly with bitchy Mitchy out of the 416. Enjoy?.

06 Sep 2025 02:33:13
Chickenfoot
Thanx for acknowledging that I am a man of my word and would to be off until September, and even though we almost always disagree it's nice to be back and have my negative feedback ?.

06 Sep 2025 02:35:07
And yes this will be a different team Chickenfoot, wonder who The Leaf whipping boy will be this season, if I were to guess I would say Rielly.

06 Sep 2025 15:40:16
You may be right about that Pinball. Rielly is in decline, and he won’t waive for a trade. With a new family I don’t blame him. Their family is in Toronto and any new parent would want the help and support of nearby family.

09 Sep 2025 15:11:30
Danford shouldn't be an option for a trade. Our Dcore is old to say the least and he looks to potentially be a more physical version ot Tanev if he develops properly and gets more disciplined. Tuch would be a great add and maybe it's something that we revisit closer to the deadline and get in on the bidding war for him cause he won't be a cheap add unless he tells Buffalo he only wants to come to TO.

Robertson is gonna get some opportunities this year to move up the lineup. We will see if he runs with it. But that 1RW spot is wide open for the taking out of camp. We will see some LWs getting looks, Roy likely gets a look. If Roslovic gets a PTO he could also take that spot out of camp/ preseason. A lot of wait and see, but hopeful for some bounce back years from a few of our guys.

05 Sep 2025 19:53:40
Well I am out of Pinball Jail and just in time for a training camp trade to post.

For reasons already stated Rielly won’t waive.

03 Sep 2025 16:36:06
Karlsson was a very god player. was. not sure he puts you over the hump.

05 Sep 2025 03:56:11
McTavish is a stud, but you don’t overpay to this degree. This is a can’t miss deal for ANA.
