Will Sergei Bobrovsky get his ask, and can or not it’s with the Toronto Maple Leafs?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

NHL Rumour Report<\/strong><\/a>: Nick Kypreos on Sergei Bobrovksy today on the Real Kyper & Bourne Show: \u201cThe last I heard was that he asked for a contract that had the length of 6 years and was 40, 42 million; that\u2019s the ballpark\u201d<\/p>\n

@Nylanderthews<\/strong><\/a>: Elliotte Friedman said on Oilers Now that he thinks Bobrovsky will sign with the Maple Leafs.<\/p>\n

NHL Rumors: Kirill Marchenko, Zach Werenski, Rasmus Andersson, and John Carlson<\/a><\/p>\n

Using the Toronto Maple Leafs for example, what it could take to accumulate Zach Werenski<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Day by day Faceoff<\/strong><\/a>: Marco D\u2019Amico on what the Columbus Blue Jackets shall be trying to get in return for Zach Werenski<\/a>. In the event you\u2019re it from the Toronto Maple Leafs side of things, the Blue Jackets are likely wanting to begin with Matthew Knies<\/a>, Easton Cowan<\/a> or Ben Danford, and a first-round pick.<\/p>\n

Colby Cohen<\/a>: \u201cI feel there\u2019s a road map on Werensky, because Quinn Hughes<\/a> was traded. So I feel there may be a minimum of a road map on return for Werenski.<\/p>\n

D\u2019Amico: \u201cI just don\u2019t know that Don Waddell<\/a> wants to make use of that very same template. He doesn’t need to know anything about prospects and picks. That\u2019s what he\u2019s telling everyone.<\/p>\n

For instance, Marchenko was the identical concept. Any deal that the Canadians would put in place for Marchenko, , could be futures heavy, because that\u2019s what they’ve. They\u2019re they\u2019re not at the purpose of their process where they’ve, , high-end expendable assets, like, say, I don\u2019t know, a Dallas Stars or a Utah Mammoth, or like there are other teams which have a little bit bit more to supply that\u2019s closer to the league or already within the league.<\/p>\n

In order that\u2019s precisely the mindset that they\u2019re going to be with Werenski. Like, for instance, Columbus, , you\u2019re coping with the Toronto Maple Leafs, Matthew Knies is what, 4 years into his NHL profession? That makes more sense, right, as a centrepiece.<\/p>\n

Potential Free Agent Targets for the Toronto Maple Leafs<\/a><\/p>\n

That\u2019s what I\u2019m talking about, where you’ve gotten a deal center, and I do know, and I do know the Leaf fans watching this are about to go bonkers here, but when you\u2019re doing, like, Knies, , (Easton) Cowan or (Ben) Danford, and a primary, , I feel you get Don Waddell to perk up. Because, like, okay, now you’ve gotten a top-end tangible asset locked in long-term that would, , are available in.<\/p>\n

After which you could possibly utilize (Kirill) Marchenko if you desire to go and get yourself the prime defenseman to play, to switch, to switch Werensky.<\/p>\n
