Not much but that isn't the point IMO. Need to upgrade.

Wow. This article could have been written by Cox, Simmons, Berger or any of the MSM trolls.

Sadly.

How much upgrading do you think Nonis can do in one off season? Bring the kid back...

Wow think about that. Lucic ran wild over this defense as is. That defense he would kill.

For what? Why not try something different? You've got half a lineup just like him. Don't get me wrong on him bc I don't mind him at all but he is easily replaceable so let's try something different.

At least rebuild it. Put transit on top of it too. Use the water for transit where possible. Do something. All the parties and levels basically dig a whole and then fill it back up again. How did we ever build big highways like the 401 and 400 in the first place? We can't do anything now.
- Zezel

That's what I say.

Build brand new supports right next to the old ones.

When the new ones are cured and ready... tear down the old ones.

Done.

I don't think the Leafs need to or will make blockbuster changes this summer...despite the event that occurred at the end a lot of Game 7 their core guys I think made a case to be on an untradeables list.

They will change some guys, and more importantly hopefully draft well too. They have the cap space and money as a few have mentioned to maybe take advantage of some teams that will be doing a Chicago-style cap correction with their rosters.

Maybe they trade a guy to move up in the draft, they still need more talent in the hopper.

my untouchable list now would be:

kessel
jvr
lupul
phaneuf
mclement
reimer
scrivens
kadri
franson
reilly
first round picks for this year and next, not tradeable

everybody else is at least on the table (including marlies, etc), but you'd still have to twist my arm to get Kuli and Frattin

I would add Scrivens to the trade pile as he could be packaged with others to bring in an upgrade elsewhere...They can get a re-tread to back up Jesus...

I'll do it this way:

? /Bozak ?/Kessel
Lupul/Kadri/JVR
Komarov/McClemment/Kulemin
Orr/?/McLaren
?

Phaneuf/Gunnarsson
Reilly?/Franson
Fraser/?
?

Trade Gardiner and Frattin for best return. Start moving some of the never gonna be's like D'Amigo as well.

that would be awesome if the leafs could get this guy.
I'd move Phaneuf.

- dmnted


Not sure if that fits under the cap. But if we let Bozak walk, then cue Colborne for the call up. Then we would be solid

I like you...You're ballsy...I don't think Nonis will move Jake, but if he was packaged with Frattin and or Scrivens, they could get on nice return...

Just because he's another young goalie who's had good stats. maybe just a good backup but after the pogge/rask thing I just want to hold onto young goalies and see what happens for a while, and possibly draft another one in fucale

I'd still trade him and agree that they could draft another good prospect as well...

It's funny, but our d actually got better when he got hurt...I hope the Flyers can dump him for a half decent return...Maybe Franson...

I'd feel better trading Scrivens if we drafted Fucale...I want to draft him just because if he's good and gets shutouts his nickname could be (frank)-all, because he gives up (frank) all. You can't pin a nickname on Scrivens, that makes him tradeable

We've just seen it all before haven't we. I mean at one point Colaiacovo was god on here. Stajan was captain material. You just don't win with this type of player. I like Frattin but see him as potentially a great 3rd line checking type. Good skater, plays the body and if he could get his head around would be a valuable asset.

And I agree with you. At this point you have to start adding real quality to the Kessel's of the world.

JVR-Stastny-Kessel
Lupul-Kadri-FA?
Frattin-Colborne-Kulemin
Komorov-Mcclement-Orr

Johnson-Phaneuf
Gardiner-Franson
FA?-O'Byrne

Reimer
Scrivens

Bozak walks with Mac.
Trade Grabo or buy him out
Trade Gunnarson for best possible return
Trade Liles and buyout Komi-maybe both.
