Lupuls a good player but I for one am tired of watching the Leaf re-runs with the same core. Its like we get it, M.A.S.H was a great show but get it off the air already.

Lol at number 7 and Dubnyk over Holtby.

- AdamFrench


I have no problem with Dubnyk over Holtby. Better win%,SV%,GAA.
If he played the entire year in Minny, he might have given price a good run for his money.

Lupul away from Kessel looks like a steaming dump. JVR away from Kessel looks like a steaming dump. I'd say Bozak looks like a steaming dump away from Kessel, but that would require a coach having the stones to separate the love birds for more than 3 shifts.

Leafs should deal him before Kessel IMO. his value ain't getting higher.

I don't quite get why Leafs Nation feels this urgency to get rid of Lupul.

His money isn't atrocious.

When he's on the ice, he's pretty effective. Not great, but OK.

Yes, he gets injured too much.

His trade value isn't going to be great, so why are we in such a hurry to get rid of him? So that Frattin can play on the 2nd line?

- Atomic Wedgie


we need to keep lupul and let him get back to his pre horacek numbers. 21 pts...guys value has never been lower

If he played the entire year in Minny he would have been exposed for the hot streak it was. Like in the playoffs. I'll take Holtby's consistency

Helluva hot streak haha. he even played a million times better than Mike smith in Phoenix, which is why they moved him so quickly. I mean he was 9-5-1 on a team where the starter ended up 14-42-5

They brought up a good question on Leafs Lunch yesterday, but first I have to ask you how does Marstrofin compare to Autson Matthews? Would he be picked ahead of them?

Well, he's already 26... Really depends on how fast you think they rebuild.

They asked if there could be a deal between Toronto and Arizona involving this year's 3 and Toronto's pick next year.

I think he would give Eichel a run for #2. numbers are eerily similar for the the under 18's

I think he's supposed to be up there with Eichel.

I don't see Arizona's incentive for the risk.

The two guys who I really want to see get the Babcock treatement are JVR and Kadri.

Not willing to trade either until we see how they respond to actual coaching.

On the drive home, they were talking about trading 4 and 24 for 3 and 30 to get Strome.

Seemed like an entirely stupid idea.
