Breaking news from the Finn...

Current informations suggest Buffalo trade pick in round 6, and pick in round 3 to TB for right to Stamkos.

And a draft pick, I'm assuming? Otherwise make that trade right now before they realize

I would think that it would have to include our second

GMTM more on FA off podium. "If I can bring in a top-end guy we already have in a certain position, we'll have to move somebody else out."

Interpret, go.

I don't know sir that was all I got, most deals end up being more so you are probably right.

Isn't Murray literally sitting in a press conference right now?

On another note, I like that we're using the 3rds as currency. Sure you can get a chance at a good player at the draft, but Vesey, even with only a chance at signing him, is the safer bet imo.

Wish Kessel's day with the Cup was this Friday. Have the Leafs draft an American #1 and have an American bring the Cup to Toronto after winning with another team would be priceless.

We have to lose a center to get room for Stamkos. So Girgensons is out. E6

I was looking at some of the odds of third round picks and I think it is around 25% that they play 100 or more NHL games and around 5 - 10% (although that seems way too high) they make it as a top 6 forward or a top 4 defensemen.

So I agree, why not use them as currency to take a chance on something.

Are you kidding me, Vesey will NOT sign in Buffalo, His 2 top teams are still Toronto and Boston, by the sounds of it and what he is looking for in terms of a city its going to be Toronto, The only down fall is I'm sure some bleeding heart will call it tampering ..and good luck proving that. We in leafs nation welcome him with open arms. I will say this, if the leafs do sign Stamkos, we might not have the cap space for vessey , but with that being said Lou I'm sure can work his magic if he really wanted him

We'll be trading Stepan for Dumba and a 1st. Then use the free cap space to sign Stamkos
