Brutal loss to Buffalo last night. The Leafs weaknesses are really starting to show at the 3/4 pole. Something very significant needs to change or this team is going nowhere in the playoffs, no matter what kind of high octane offense Matthews and Marner can provide on their own.

Good to know that they shouldn't change the lines. Keep what they have in place, goaltending is key - PM35 might need to be dealt - not showing the signs as of yet.

I thought he was doing ok before and showed some good game...last night was terrible.
They definitely weren't thinking that way around Nov/Dec. It makes a lot of sense right now, though.
How much would they have to give up? Chicago knows that the Leafs are in deep need of goaltending and could squeeze them. Not sure, but I don't think that the Leafs want to trade away any high draft picks.
Another option to pursue could be Georgiev of the Rangers. They have bodies they could package (not all, 1-2) - guys like Dermott, Kerfoot, Engvall, Holl, Mrazek and/or a prospect like Robertson, Ovvchinikov, Abramov, Woll that could make an attractive package along with maybe a conditional second/third round pick.

No point in giving away draft picks, they're going to get swept in the first round regardless. I do have a question: who's Joseph Woll, why have the Leafs given him a contract extension when he's not even on the team?
He's making $7M. That's a lot of money to bury in the minors until playoff time.
I'm definitely not a capologist either but my understanding is that it is the total value of the contracts
combined at any given time that determines the cap space.
Pro-rating is only to calculate what is left to pay out.
Hopefully someone can clarify.
Matthews scores 3 last night, he's on pace to score at least 60, he could be Leaf's 1st 60 goal scorer.
