Phil Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 That $11-million in space doesn?t include the fact that the Leafs are in the process of trying to move Matt Martin?s contract, potentially I?m hearing to the New York Rangers. Replace him with a depth player in the million-dollar range and their cap space increases to around $12.5-million. https://theathletic.com/416076/2018/07/01/mirtle-adding-john-tavares-doesnt-have-to-mean-the-maple-leafs-lose-their-young-stars/ -- From what I've been told it's probably Martin for an asset. Be that a pick or prospect. Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torontonyr Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Can't really play hockey but a hard worker and a pest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted July 2, 2018 Author Share Posted July 2, 2018 I'm A-OK with Martin. Two more years at $2.5 million. Get a prospect with him, too. Martin addresses the character hunt to a tee and expiries just as soon as the Rangers need to be a serious team again. It's win-win.

pws85nyr Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I like it. Preferred this over Reaves, and when you look at the cap dump the Pens made to Buffalo this could be a cheap/profitable deal.

Sent from my iPhone using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk I think the Leafs have leverage. I think we'd give up rather than get in terms of assets.

Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 So we would have to give up a player or a pick for him? Hell no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giacomin Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Yeah, it's one thing to take on that roster and cap space in FA. Yet, to give up a decent asset for a guy who shouldn't be in the lineup every night is a whole nother issue. We are being used again, this time by a team instead of a player. Let's not help Toronto free up cap (or get an asset back) just so they have more room for either their pending big contracts or Trouba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.wiskers Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 We must be out of our minds, Martin should be getting us a prospect. Not the other way around. Sent from my iPad using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted July 2, 2018 Author Share Posted July 2, 2018 Yeah, the idea is to take advantage of them, not the other way around. But it also depends on the complexity of the deal.

NYR2711 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I would be fine giving up a late round pick for him, but definitely not a good prospect/player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil Posted July 2, 2018 Author Share Posted July 2, 2018 It should be Martin + pick for lesser pick That was my hope as well. Martin, prospect or pick for like a 4th.

Mr.wiskers Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 SNY.tvs Adam Rotter says: Overall, I could see the Rangers taking on Martin and Horton's contracts in a deal that wouldn't cost them much of anything but also land them a prospect or pick(s). The Rangers have the space to make that kind of deal, especially since both contracts expire in two-years. The Rangers are in asset accumulation mode and if Toronto is looking to deal then they should be one of Leafs' first calls.

The Dude Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 This Hayes haterade is getting ridiculous. I feel it needs more backing. Oddly I say fuck Matt Martin and you take it as hating on Hayes.....?????? Suggesting a trade for a gritty character winger whom can play on the top six isn't exactly hating on the guy..
