PPG winger? In 66 games once. Totally unreliable. And the book is still out on Robert Gordon.

Brilliant, brilliant trade by Burke. Terrible asset management by Anaheim.

You remind me of someone.....That I used to know.

To Colorado: John Liles
To Toronto: Cody Mcleod

Makes sense for both teams and clears 2.72 in cap space for us.

JVR - Bozak - Kessel
Lupul - Kadri - Clarkson
Colborne - Bolland - Kulemin
Mcleod - McClement - Orr/McClaren

Phaneuf - Gunnarsson
Franson - Fraser
Gardiner - Ranger
Holzer

Reimer/Bernier

Sure they would. They had Beauchemin for free and let him go only to give up a PPG winger and a good young puck-moving D 18 months later.

Terrilbe asset management.

4th in Norris voting Beauchemin?

They had Beauchemin already!

if Burke let a player go and then gave up players like Lupul+gardiner for the same player, he'd be laughed out-of-town.

No on cares about Anaheim, so you can get away with those terrible mistakes.

Sometimes I think Randy was intentionally trying to sabotage the team. This is reason 1A. Do you think Boston was paying him off?

In all honesty, how could any Leaf fan that watched that Boston series not come away being really excited about Gardiner. Yeah, he made a couple mistakes but was clearly one of our best players in that series - against an incredibly tough veteran team in the fricken playoffs!!!!

Gardiner seemed to be everywhere on the ice, at times, it seemed like there were 5 Gardiners playing at the same time! LOL
This kid has incredible skating ability, his passing game and vision are off the charts and seems to have the talent to be a HUGE asset.

People on here are completely clueless!

well they had Beauchemin, Lupul and Gardiner at one point...

And they only let Gardiner go because they had Shultz. Whoops...

They had Shultz and Gardiner and didn't keep one of them, add in Fowler that they have, that defence would have three damn good puck movers.

He's great when in the lineup

Skating...yes
Passing and vision ....not so much

Exactly. Think of one rush that turned into anything.

I thought his passing is very good. He makes some mistakes, so what? He's young. He can improve.

How many young D-men have the abilities of Gardiner? very few.

- honesthockey

Right, bingo!
All Gardiners fault!

I think it's time for you to hitch your star to a different wagon...may I suggest Chicago??

Sami Vatanen as well...
- AdamFrench

They had a pretty good stable of prospects on defence.

He was the best NHL rookie D-Man in 11-12'.

(frank) Ranger. I was in an elevator with him and, trying to be friendly, I asked him how he was doing. He cried. He could have snapped my neck like a pencil but instead he went in the corner and layed down in the fetal position for half an hour. Took paramedics 3 hours and the jaws of life to get the (frank)er out.
