It's only 2 games, wait until the 10 game mark and then we'll know whether or not Kadri's for real. He's in midseason form because he played all year on the Marlies so he has a step on a lot of the ones who haven't played all year in the AHL or Europe.

I agree, it's a short season but that doesn't mean that you can completely change your opinion of players/teams based on the first 2 games of the season after a very short camp.

I think it'll take at least 10-15 games to get fitness levels more or less on par across the league. In a 48 game season that's a lot of games if you're schedule happens to start you off against teams already in shape. That's why the playoff picture this year will pack some surprises.

On the ice for 7 of 9 GA thus far. Perfect trade candidate to bring in those top prospects.

I guess we find out tomorrow if we have an early GT controversy. Another stinker by Schneider and or the team in front of him and it would be crazy not going with Lu to avoid a 4rth straight loss.

I for one will buy adult diapers just in case because I'll be first to crap my pants.

If we were offered Kadri and Bozak for Lu and Gillis said no he is an idiot. Bozak is a terrific Faceoff man and Kadri so far looks like a good player. He would instantly be our best prospect which we are lacking. That deal I am sure is all but dead right now.

It's not Gillis saying no it is Luongo

He has no interest in going to the Leafs Isles or Jets

His short list I am hearing is Florida,Chicago and the Rangers

Focus on those teams and you will find your trade

Hawks signed Karlsson yesterday and the Rangers are set and Florida will not pay the price so I will be interested to see this trade Gillis talks of

Give it a rest dude. Yeah he wants to go to Chicago. You are hearing? From who are you hearing this? His second cousins wife's hairdresser? I'm really getting tired of this talk and even though it would be beneficial to have 2 strong goalies in a shortened season I feel having both will do more harm than good.

He's going to Leafs, Islanders, Devils or Lightning.
