Zack digs in to the rumours, who Connor Hellebuyck is, and whether or not Brad Treliving and the Maple Leafs should try to trade for him.

These are just rumors created by the guy making money on his YouTube channel.
1) Think Leafs number 1 priority is Matthews contract, The two Leaf goalies played well in the playoffs. Go with the devil you know – or the one you don’t? In Winnipeg Helly plays well – when he is sheltered by Adam Lowry’s & others strong defensive play missing in Toronto.
I think Helly might end up playing like Hutchinson did in Toronto. Hutchinson (former Moose & Jet) also looked good in Winnipeg (not as good as Helly) but Jets had Buff, Trouba, Chariot & a strong defence group (Lowry & Tanev). Leafs don’t.
The fact that the Leafs can have two good goal tenders in Woll and Samsonov for cheap, is great for the salary cap. The Leafs need a top Defensive pair and a forechecking left winger.
No more overpriced bums Sammy is good enough
No thanks. Retain samsonov, dump Murray, woll as backup
Never gonna happen…
Just someone playing amateur GM. A Samsonov – Woll tandem is the most optimal cost-to-performance ratio. I don't think Treliving will spend any time thinking about this. He has much greater priorities.
I'm down
Would love that move hellebuyck is a legit number 1 goalie in the nhl ..would be amazing for the organization moving forward get ready for a great look behind the blueline …treliving knows
D is the priority and a few tough forwards.
It's not a rumour? Sevaralli just outlines options lol
Im Horned up
I like Woll. I think the Leafs need to get tougher in the top six. Sign Orlov with the Kerfoot and Holl contracts going out the door and move Nylander for a power forward ala Tom Wilson or Josh Anderson. Put Marner with Tavares to prop him up and play Matthews, Knies and Anderson/Wilson together…and get a coach who believes in North/South aggressive forechecking hockey. Ditch the periphery crap and the light, ineffective, slappy slappy slap stick checking for some more beefy hockey down low, net front hockey that can sustain a forecheck and get the puck to the net. Re-sign Acciari and Kampf. Tell Murray, he's either in a suit or on LTIR…and move him
Toronto has 2 great young goalies that will get better.Spend the money on better d men and stop just trying to out score everyone it just doesn't work in the playoffs when things tighten up.But spend money on a goalie before you add forwards that are just figure skaters Toronto has enough of these already.
I'm absolutely good with Hellebuyck, and for those who are worried that we need defence, not to worry…Treliving will work on making that better, as well some heavy wingers.
The only people that are attracted to Winnipeg are drug addicts, alcoholics or First nation's residents.
Lol good luck
At $7.5 million salary and a cap hit of $6,166,000, this is NOT a goalie that I would consider trading an active player for. Woll and Samsonov will be fine. They need so many other things, a goalie would be the last on the list. Why would you want Hellebuyck when Adin Hill is available as a UFA.
TRADE HOLL
Keep Sammy amd put up a Woll behind him. Go after a Tkachuk.
Samsonov will be top notch one day. His numbers are already showing that. Samsonov is going to want 4 million easy but Helly is going to want 10 million. Don't think the Leafs will have that kind of Cap space for Conor. They need to spend it on Defensemen.
if Holland isn't in on him, I don't know what to say. Skinner gave them a top 10 worst of all time playoff goaltending performance. They breeze by vegas with even average goaltending.
Woll and Samsonov is all we need for goalies
What about trading Nylander for Marksrom straight up. Keep Woll as back up and for future. Sign and trade Trade Samsonov with another asset for a top four dman.
Not worth it in my opinion. Great video I just subscribed
I don’t think we need Hellebuyck. Spend the assets on something else.
Seravalli is an idiot he spreads all these rumors that are not true that's why TSN canned him
Ya know, Mathews is a Bieber fan cream puff. Trade him now for a whack of 1st rounders. Tavaraes to.
Giordano is retiring too.
Seravalli is a joke, Leafs don't have the pieces to get Hellebuyck out of Winnipeg nor will Hellebuyck commit long term with any Canadian team. Seravalli was the same moron that said that Detroit and Larkin wasn't close to a deal when they were finishing up on the contract extension. He's an idiot that's wrong 99.9% of the time.
Brahahahaha….clickbait
why is it that the leafs most obvious issues (d) are never in the moves that need to happen conversation within the franchise?? so weird to (not) see year after year. smh
send them willie for hellebuyck
Why are we always get goalies that are past their prime or hoping they can get back their swagger from the past. Not much of upgrade from Sammy and Wolff and with much higher salary that they cannot afford
Nobody can help the leafs. You mays as well give up. Never bought a ticket and i never will. I rather watch paint dry.
Thatcher Demko or Jeremy Swayman
The Leafs have better right now. They'd have to be stupid to go after him. Woll deserves his chance and Samsonov deserves a new contract.
He’s going to Edm .
Great video Zack my boi!
Hellybuyck wants to win a cup…why would he go to the Maple Laughs. A Samsonov and Woll tandem will suffice as well as optimal
This guy needs to hit puberty….he sounds like a 9 year old…plus leaf fans are all maroons
Hallebuck he. Is a great goaltender could be a answer. Between the pipes don't necessarily agree with you but ild love that one here in Toronto
A lot of idiots in the comment section saying we need defense. We didn't score more than 2 goals in ANY game against the Panthers and ya'll wanna upgrade the defense? Stupid ass takes by wagon fans who don't watch the games. When will you people realize our offense just isn't cutting it. Stop blaming the damn defense/goaltending when the reality is that we need to shake things up with the regulars on the milk cartons, being the ''Core 4''.
I'm a #NHLJets fan… and can say that if we lose Helle, Jets go into a rebuild/retool, he is our MVP, our GOAT… and I've watched this team for many years. I'd rather we kept him in Winnipeg but my heart breaks that he tries so hard to drag the boys deep into the playoffs every year and since 2018 it's never worked well. He's had periods of struggle, to be sure… just like any other goalie in the NHL does… but his consistency and his effort never stops…. He's our workhorse.
Toronto, you won't know what's hit you if you get Helle… trust me on this. All I want for Helle is that he gets his Stanley Cup, it's all he ever asks for. If not with Winnipeg, then he deserves to go to a team that get to the Finals.
