the way you describe that you make it seem like Zajac is worth something...

11th overall + 1st rounder next year + Corey Schneider
for
1st overall + Bernier.



and if we have to take Zajac, you have to take Lupul
- BorjeFan4Ever

Now you are just being mean.

Man, I wonder what it would take to do the opposite: try to get the 2nd as well (or 3rd).

Would JVR + Pitt 1st + TOR 2nd 2017 do it? (I'm assuming "no", but not sure what else would need to be added). Would WPG or CBJ even consider something like that?
- --Lamp--

I wouldn't

Pretty much like 2 2nd and and JVR for Laine who is by all accounts a stud

I'd rather see that package bring back an nhl dman

Draft in Buffalo this year, leafs picking #1.....need to see about getting some tickets.

I'd rather give the minutes to the kids and let Matthews develop into the true number 1 centre, in the next 3 years. What are you going to say to Stamkos when Matthews becomes the real number 1 centre in the near future? Sorry, but you're now number 2 and have to play the wing? Then you have another $10 million dollar pouter on the team. Better to take that money and invest in a better defense going forward. I'm hoping that they find a way to move up into the top 10 for another good player, preferably a defenseman.

My guess is you tell him the Gretzky-Messier 1-2 punch won 4 Stanley Cups together.

But what the hell do I know?

I'm just a simple Leafs fan with a 13" weiner who can lick his eyebrows.

Tell Mrs. Prince Wedgie says hello.

im already sick of the trade offers

Nope.
Unless nylander or rielly was involved
- Fakepartofme

Yeah, that would be sideways for us. Hard to see how a deal would work I guess.

Snagging Matthews + Laine would be insane.

Not sure that can happen, but we do have one Bobby Farnham.
- smellmyfinger

If he's 35+ (I just assume all Devils forwards are) then deal

Shanahan says no matter where they picked, it wouldn't have made an impact on the upcoming free agency.


AKA "We've already got an agreement via Stamkos' mother's dogwalker's cousin's babysitter..."

Guys...




I still can't believe that we traded David Clarkson...
- lumlums

all joking aside... a little over a year

Clarkson gone
Kessel gone
Phaneuf gone

Nylander improves - appears like real deal

leafs steal Connor Carrick from Caps

Leafs get #1 overall


now just need to get rid of little Jonny Berner

Marner who was a 4th overall and another 1st rounder and a 3rd rounder for an aging Bergeron, they'll just sign Stamkos for free.
- the_eye

Doesn't look like he's aging much play wise...would give you a strong defensive line to help out with a questionable defense. Pure Babcock type of guy. But I do get your point.

As well as the fairly high possibility of a Leafs trade using Pitts pick

My guess is you tell him the Gretzky-Messier 1-2 punch won 4 Stanley Cups together.

Marner alone would be an over payment.

Ohya and GO LEAFS GO what a beaut of a draft outcome, simply perfect.

you know it

stamkos didn't burn stevie y and tampa to go to buffalo

Shanny says Leafs fans needed some good news. No shiit, sir. And this is some gooood news.

Also, says first overall pick will not change their philosophy in signing possible free agents.

Marner alone would be an over payment.
- the_eye

I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to totally disagree.

By all means, he looks like he could be a stud, but he hasn't played a single game in the NHL.

Can you and everyone else on here honestly say you would not trade Marner straight up for Bergeron?

If not, that's cool, I just disagree.
