garylawless: Hearing there's some back and forth between Leafs and Islanders on P.A. Parenteau

Hope it's not:

Leafs:  C'mon take him.
Islanders:  Nope.
Leafs:  C'mon take him.
Islanders: Nope.
Leafs:  C'mon take him please.
Islanders: Nope.

Maybe for Ho-Sang?

No thanks.  Ho Sang has some talent but he has the wrong attitude that the Leafs are trying to foster.  He's really not having a good year in the OHL either.  69 points in 56 games from a guy in his 4th OHL season is abysmal when he was a top 5 OHL pick and a 1st round draft selection. 

HoSang doesn't have the build/game to be a grinder so he will live and die in the top 6.  He's not playing like a guy destined for the top 6.

garylawless: Islanders and Leafs going back-forth on P.A. Parenteau. Toronto wants a 2nd. Isles really want player but not ready to pay that price. Yet.

I'm hearing some chatter that garylawless might disappear tomorrow.

Seems fair. They're familiar with him and he adds some offensive flair. Its not a steep price IMO.

 

[Deebo]

They don't have their 2016 2nd round pick so it'd have to be next year or the year after.

 

[sickbeast]

I wonder how much Parenteau's trade value has dropped because of his neck issue.

Who is Gary Lawless?  Sounds like a C&W act.

You know what was lawless?  Parenteau dressing for Saturday's game was lawless.  It cost the Leafs a 2nd round draft pick.

You don't know that. Perhaps, in the end, nobody wanted to pay what the Leafs were asking for. And maybe they decided he was more valuable in the room with the kids as opposed to taking whatever you can get for him. It will be interesting to see if the Leafs resign him for another year.

At the end of the day, the Leafs need to stop telling players to be prepared to move, because when they do that, they don't move.  PAP this year, and Lupul last year.

I do know that the Leafs training staff should have been more diligent.  They knew they were planning to move Parenteau and he had to have known that he wasn't feeling great.  They should not have dressed him unless he was 100% good to go.

If he wasn't 100%, dressing him or not dressing him would not have impacted their ability to trade him. Teams have to be upfront and honest about the health of players in trades. They have physicals on the other end to verify that kind of stuff. If Parenteau has any kind of injury issue that would legitimately scare a team off, they would have been scared off regardless of how things played out on Saturday.

I am. It was a bone head move.

 

[McGarnagle]

In listening to tsn on the way home, Dreger said that there was no interest from any team on parenteau. He specifically asked NYI toward the end of the deadline if they would be interested if the price dropped, and they said "not really".

I don't think its too hard to imagine that on a playoff bound team, parenteau wouldn't be any upgrade over most of the skill already on the roster, and really don't bring much in terms of defensive play or penalty killing, that sort of thing that's coveted in a depth trade deadline acquisition. Same with Boyes.

If anything, I think I'm most surprised that there wasn't a 3rd or 4th available on Grabner.
