LindG1000 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Who's taking that contract, though? That's six more years at like 4.5m a year for a guy that struggled on a team that had little on the blueline beyond Rielly. Hard, hard sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrooksBurner Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Better than Skjei for almost a million less per year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Yea the Skjei hate is comical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrooksBurner Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 That was intended to be a bit tongue in cheek lol Here's not tongue in cheek: both are 3rd pairing defenseman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Also not accurate, but doesn't really matter at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlairBettsBlocksEverything Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Leafs need cap relief and Dmen that are cost controlled. I could see a team giving a good young defenseman for zaitsev and a good pick (2020 first). To get rid of his long term deal the leafs have to kind of allow themselves to be fleeced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

josh Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Not unless you get rid of the other 3 or 4 anchor contracts on the blueline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThirtyONE Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Every single time a name pops up here people make their pitch to get him. Do we understand that we have the most expensive d in the league and at the same time quite possibly the worst? Zaitsev is another anchor in both playing style and contract.
