    There would have to be more to it than Bozak - Cole. Pitts doesn't have the cap room. They'd be 1m and change shy. Leafs are in need of one more solid piece in the back end. He would fill a void that's for sure. Pitt would get almost immediate chemistry from besties Bozak & Kessel too. A bigger boost than just adding a really solid #3C (in their line up) I wouldn't locking on Bozak going the other way in this one, but definitely can see Tor being interested in Cole

    I've seen that rumour now for Bozak and I've also seen Cole - Bozak 1-1 Sheahan/Cole - Bozak 2-1 both with Tor eating 50% of salary to get Pitt to add a pick.

    I'm not sure Tor needs or wants Sheahan, but might take him just to get Cole and make the deal work - then either flip him or waive him to the marlies.

    I posted this in the Leafs team thread, I think Hjalmarsson would be a better target personally. but I think Cole comes cheaper.

    Leafs also think their D is better than a lot of fans do. Time will tell how this plays out.

    The most interesting part of about these Cole rumors to me though.. is that Vegas, who has a plethora of Dmen... are also interested.

    Penguins are saying they aren’t playing Cole because they want to protect the asset. B.MacKenzie is saying he’s not in the lineup because the coach doesn’t want him to be.

    To note, 2016 early January Ian Cole was benched 11 straight games when their coach first came in. I’d just keep waiting on the price to drop lower than Bozak price.

    Like where does Cole fit in Toronto’s lineup?
    Gardiner, Rielly, Hainsey, and Zaitsev take top 4 spots. Cole would be your 5/6 d-man. Is that really worth trading away Bozak? I rather keep my C2.5 (not a C3, not a C2) then get a 5/6 d-man who is another LH shot.

    He’s essentially pushing out Borgman, Polak, or Carrick. AKA a 67% chance their like only RH D-man. I'll pass on Cole.

    Cole for 1 year looks more like a rental to me, then again so is Bozak

    I would think the Leafs want to hold on to Bozak who knows the GTA market, can perform under the pressure there and the team looks to address the deficit come the offseason

    Or has been suggested, they kick the tires in Vegas to see what they can shake loose
    Consider Sim Hockey because guys who play shutdown minutes, deflect shots and clear creases build championships. Yet in fantasy they litter the unwanted UFA lists.

    I have read a few Cole rumors lately. There is plenty of interest in him but I dont see many teams offering up much for him as most are afraid of his next contract in the off-season. I do think he gets dealth though, just not sure where considering the amount of teams who seem to be interested in his services.

    Bozak is better but if we get the cap savings i'm fine with it.

    Or if we retain on Bozak for cole + that could work too.

    Just don't want to see bozak retained + for cole

    The Leafs are at 49 contracts.

    I doubt they handicap themselves at max out at 50 with this trade.

    Also, no one brought up the Murray injury. I wonder if Pitts would be interested in Pickard/Sparks depending on Murray's status (currently he's week to week, 2-3 weeks)

    Personally, I think Cole is a better fit in Colorado.

    Pickard hasn't done great in the AHL, so I rather keep McEh then trade him away and have an underperforming Pickard up.

    Also I want Sparks to continue playing as a starter, so keep him down in the AHL.
