Comment your thoughts! Thanks everyone
No thanks. Id rather keep Cowan.
Trade Reilly for EP40 from vancouver instead of this trochek business
If TO keeps getting rid of young players, this team will go no where
?Why would you sign Macielli and Robertson for 3+mil each ?
What about to Toronto: Vincent Trocheck + Braden Schneider and in return NY Rangers get Easton Cowan and a 2026 2nd
I love Easton Cowan, but this is exactly the kind of trade a team in the Matthews window should at least consider. Trocheck gives the Leafs something they’ve badly needed in the playoffs: a legit pain-in-the-ass two-way center who wins draws, plays hard, and can handle big moments, while Schneider gives them a young top-4 right-shot D they can keep for years. Giving up Cowan would hurt, no question, but if you can turn one beloved prospect and a 2nd into a proven playoff-style center plus a young NHL defenseman, that’s the kind of move that helps Toronto now and later.
The days of trades picks and prospects needs to come to an end! This is the reason the leafs are in the mess they are in
Robertson and a second about all I’d give
I'm pretty sure at the beginning of last year they offered him to Toronto for Nick Robertson and Toronto said no. I'm pretty sure Toronto's answer would be absolutely no for Easton Cowan
No chance for cowan wtf 😂😂😂
Honestly terrible offers… who would trade 2 great prospects with 1st 2nd and 3rd picks for 1 aging guy 😂😂
No thanks, unless they take Reilly
That's waaaay too much to give away!!!!!

That is stupid Cowan is future oof leafs absolutely ridiculous
Why would we give up THAT much for trocheck? If the rangers are desperate to get off the contract shouldn't we be giving them next to nothing LOL
trade mathews for Trocheck, matt remepe and the rangers 1st and 2nd pick this year, and the 1st next year year, plus a prospect D or goalie.
The Leafs have very little draft capital. You want to trade the very little that they have? I don’t think so.
All of those offers are way too much for Trockek.
They better not touch Cowan or Hildeby!
Keep dreaming
Trading Cowan is stupid!
Just keep mortgaging the future for a present that wont be any different
