Mike Richards would of been perfect but remember we would of had to trade kadri+ for him when he had the chance
- Mapleleafs_91

Yeah, it was Kadri and Kulemin if memory serves correctly. I remember hearing that Burke asked for some time to think on it and L.A. swooped in with a better offer. Not sure how true that is, but i's believable

maybe hes not the type of player I want as a #1 center.

as I mentioned yesterday, Mike Richards would be one of my top choices, ROR would be good also. Both not being available of course

Dreger said that Thornton may be the big name that moves this summer, like how Rick Nash did. Not out of distaste for his current team, but for contract reasons. I believe he said that during TradeCentre.

Even if we got thorton and signed him to like a 2-3 year extension id be happy I dont think age is a factor for thorton, he still registers 70+pts

Kessel and Lupul can hit 90+ points each playing together if Lupul can play a full 82. I don't think there's a centre that can push them higher than that who would be worth the price to get him.

Statsny>ROR in my opinion, Mike Richards would have been very good. But I see Statsny as a practical and realistic possibility.

So reimer had a great playoff but then sort of drop the ball with the rest of the team game 7. He has the weirdest consistency I ve seen plays like an all star then can't catch the puck wtf. What do you think the plan going forward is?

johnson + stastny would cost a lot simply because sherman gave up way too much to get johnson in the first place

Give him a tube of tennis balls and not let him leave the garage until he can catch them all!

I'd rather O'Rielly too, but imagine Bowen trying to call a powerplay in a few years with him and Rielly? it'd be a disaster.
