He would truly blossom as player and as a human being in this market. Of that there is no doubt.

He would become a pillar of society. Once his shoulder is healed he could help next year's goon tank!

love how he's got the + next to Kane. probably Ladd or WHeeler.

DUde

For the love of God, has Eklund forgotten about the miracle that is Timonen so soon?

So let's say the Leafs get Anaheim's 1st for Franson...

It is now draft day and Edmonton or Buffalo is picking 1st and Leafs are picking 6th.

Would you offer, Leafs first, Anaheim's first, Leafs first in 2016, Rielly, and Nylander for the 1st overall?

Would you give me your Ferrari F-50 for 2 Saab's, a BM'er and a Benz?

I think we agree but your clever analogy is more confusing than profound.

How does someone just start sucking like that?

Ask Reimer.


And pretty much everyone else on the team

We agree, and I'm not trying to be snarky...there's no way #1 and likely #2 are dealt this year.

(Rielly was the Benz though )

Yes....the goon tank.....let's get Santorelli, Winnik and Lupul out of town and bring up Orr, McLaren and Broll. Lets terrorize the east for the rest of the season and have a revolving penalty box door, going forward. Leafs games would actually be worthwhile watching for more then cheering for the opposition to win. I so miss the Leafs from 2 years ago, when they'd brutalize anyone that got in the way!

I would think the Jets have 0 interest in Reimer.

Most teams do.

I find it interesting because I agree there is no way they get dealt, yet there were quite a few people here who would not make that trade from the Leafs perspective.

I did say that if I was Tampa I would not trade Stamkos + Hedman for McDavid + Myers.. Tampa is a legitimate contender right now.

Before playing for the Leafs, the guy played 62 NHL games over the course of 5 years.

He's played 92 in the last 2 years.... maybe he's struggling with the workload?

I guess... but you'd expect a more gradual drop.

But if you do not go to the finals this year, do you make the trade at the draft?

Thing about that is that they're not only contenders now,,they're stacked going forward.

Franchise forward
Franchise defender
Franchise goalie

All relatively young


A blue chip franchise goalie prospect in vasilevski.
A blue chip franchise forward prospect in drouin.

Plus an extremely young core; kucherov, palat, killorn, Johnson.

It's insane how set they are.
