[Dhaliwal] Elliotte Friedman on Tyler Myers to Toronto rumour : That is not happening, earlier in season there was Myers talk, not now. Toronto is looking for a forward, not defenseman.

    Buy low on Kravtsov now, see how he does then make a trade if he doesn’t pan out on deadline day

  2. Good, Myers is awful, don’t see how he could help the Blueline.

  3. Steakholder_

    Thank you for the calming assurance Friedge

  4. Nameless908

    Toronto should be looking for a forward *and* defence man

  5. 123jazzhandz321

    The only Myers move that could have made sense is if they swapped Mrazek for him in the Off Season. Even then Myers some how has a worse contract than Mrazek…

    Whoever heard the Myers rumor must have just heard wrong is all.

    The source probably said the Leafs were looking at MEIER.

    We already have a big D-man who doesn’t use his size.

    I read this as Timo Meier and was very confused.

  9. I still like ROR as a forward pick up. That makes out centre depth insane and late in games you can bump him up to the wing on L1 or L2 and push Kampf back to 3C when you shorten the bench. I think the ask for Meier is going to be too high and I’d rather keep Knies for 3 years at ELC then 3 months of Meier. I think Knies has the chance to make an instant impact given he is older and has an NHL level shot and size. He of course isn’t as good as Meier but add ROR plus a potential for Knies to snag a spot right away and I like that better. A top 4 D would be great too but doesn’t seem like that is out there for us unless McCabe is that guy. I don’t know too much about him but if he is an upgrade on any of our top 4 Im into it.

    I’d love to be reassured but this team loved Ceci and won’t stop playing Holl so…we’ll see.

  11. diecorporations

    Myers is not even a #7 dman on leafs. Truly awful player.

  12. Si2ationCriticl

    It was a fake trade to find the leak in the Canucks office .

  13. BlueLuxin

    I cant believe how many times on this sub ive had to say we dont need defence. Thank god dubas sees it the same way

  14. Deluxechin

    it literally feels like every 15 minutes there’s a completely different narrative on what we’re after,

    one minute we swinging high and in talks with all the big fish, then its expect something small and nothing to meaning full, then its were without a doubt in on a defencemen with maybe minimal upgrades upfront then were not doing anything with defence and we’re after a forward

    compared to previous years, it really feels like the insiders don’t have much information or upper management is really flip-flopping on what were after, i remember last year was “were getting defencemen with some help up front” and that was reported a few weeks before hand, sure we didn’t know it was Gio, but we had an idea of what we were probably getting

    To anyone wanting Tyler Bertuzzi, as much as I see a fit, he’s unvaccinated, making it still a hurdle to get over for Canadian teams

  16. sokocanuck

    Who else is terrified at the washed up vet we’ll be taking home?

  17. Rowdy_Roddy96

    I said this might be possible but if Schenn is a 3rd + just pay that but I would do

    3rd + Kerfoot and Hollowell for Schenn + Pearson LTIR ( out for rest of year but has the entire offseason with the Leafs medical staff and is a Kerfoot replacement the next year )

    Then with Muzzin’s and Pearson’s LTIR go all in on a Big Fish like Kane, Konecny, Meier

    Yeah good why the fuck would we want Myers? Provides nothing to the back end that we would actually need, just a rando body.

  20. Travyswole

    We SHOULD be looking for a defenseman though. Especially after how awful the blue line looked Saturday night.

  21. MatchMirner

    I’m okay with the idea of a defenseman, even if I would prefer a winger, but yeah Myers would be an awful choice

  22. Copel626

    ” a forward, nit a defenceman”

    Is Dubad high? Is he not estch justin holl piss away games?

  23. Bobbyoot47

    There might be a defenseman out there who the Leafs may yet be interested in. But I never thought Myers was ever going to be one of them.

  24. sharabhi

    My prediction is the Leafs get something like Barbashev, Watson and McCabe. Don’t think we’re getting any of the big names.

  25. Footballguy1287

    This is so interesting, we are seeing conflicting reports from Seravalli and Friedman (Seravalli mentioned 1 week ago the leafs are not looking to make a big move at forward and hinted towards mccabe). I wonder who is right, this is the closest the NHL has to a Woj vs Shams

  26. Sweaty-Button-7378

    Leafs don’t need D? that would be a surprise to a lot of fans’
