Oilers Push Nurse Trade Toronto's Rielly Move Makes No Sense

Edmonton’s Oilers are reportedly ready to part ways with defenseman Darnell Nurse, 31, as GM talks about waiving his no-movement clause — but a rumored trade to Toronto for Morgan Rielly? That’s a financial and on-ice misfire. Rielly’s $7.5M cap hit is already heavy; Nurse’s $9.25M deal adds $1.75M more, tying Toronto’s hands. Plus, Nurse’s underwhelming 2023-24 season — just 7 goals, 24 points, declining ice time — doesn’t justify swapping a veteran for another aging defenseman. Toronto should be looking to save money or add youth, not pile on costly, less effective talent. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Larkin Could Land in Toronto

Dylan Larkin, Detroit’s captain and trade target, could be headed to Toronto — a move that would shake up the NHL. The Leafs, thin at center after Matthews, see Larkin as the perfect fit for their second line, despite limited assets to offer. A blockbuster deal involving young prospects and future picks might be the only way to land him — especially if Detroit’s rebuilding. While Larkin may have other options, his history with Matthews could make Toronto a tempting destination. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

David Carle Rejects Leafs Coaching Offer

David Carle, the hotshot coach leading the University of Denver to two national titles in three years, shut down rumors he was headed to the Toronto Maple Leafs — turning down their formal interview. Known for passing on NHL opportunities before, Carle’s deep ties to Denver run deeper than coaching: he nearly played there in the late 2000s before a heart condition ended his pro dreams — yet still got drafted by Tampa Bay in the 7th round. His brother Matt also played in the Lightning system, and David’s rise from student assistant to head coach at Denver since 2019 has made him one of the most coveted coaches outside the NHL.
