Chris Johnston of Sportsnet: Maple Leafs assistant GM Kyle Dubas on trade chatter picking up.
“It just seemed that we were getting multiple calls every hour, people trying to test the waters and see what’s happening,” he said. “It’s getting there.”

Dubas has been trying to keep things quiet with regards to the trade front.

“There’s just a lot more paranoia about names getting out,” said Dubas. “So we’ve tried to really keep everything closed off with our team as much as we possibly can. I think inevitably when you’re talking about players with so many teams and then so many staffs are involved and so many agents are involved you’re trying your best but it’s going to go out there.

“We’re trying to do things as privately as we can.”

That seals the deal....Strome it is

But he didn't tell you how strome did at his at bat?

I second that. Either him, Brent Burns or Cuba Gooding!

Go Leafs Go! Wooo!

Are you thanking us for being among the group that didn't win a cup? Don't thank us, we couldn't have done it without all 28 of you.

Nothing wrong with celebrating individual domination and greatness. But Karlsson and Price did have some divisional bottom feeders they should have thanked in their acceptance speeches.

I like what I'm reading about this Crouse kid; could be a steal if we trade down.

I heard crouse did, didn't hear anything about stome. Marner seemed to connect with every pitch.

Yeah youre right,i seen him bat once and he looked a little off balance,bit scary,but it says that Marner did fairly well with his other bats.

That's too bad. Future leaf

The Karlsson hate is too bad.. I'd be pretty excited if rielly turns out anywhere near as good as him!
- ClarksonDavid

I don't think it's hate so much as an understanding that the Norris Trophy has been diluted over the past few years. It seems to go to who the hockey writers believe is the most exciting defenceman, rather than the best. Karlsson is great at what he does, maybe the best, but what he does shouldn't warrant that award in my opinion.
