This makes my day...the Leafs and Flames love our scraps

Edit. Can we interest you in Burrows? He is a 30 goal scorer

Where are you watching it? I am sure it does look good, he is a strong athlete. He will never make it above AA (and that would take a miracle).

Sure. We'll take him. Then we can flip him for picks. We can do the same Edler as well if you're interested?

It is pretty hilarious how you guys obtain picks for your garbage rentals. I do think the Toronto media helps in that regard. these plugs get so much media attention and there are enough idiotic GM's out there to fall for it. Being a team with limited media exposure hurts the Canucks in some ways. Still saddening that we didn't receive anything for the garbage 7

That's quite surprising as those headlines are reserved only for Toronto based teams. Much like the fender-bender in Toronto this morning that was one of the lead stories on the Google News.

Agreed. I think the media is helping for sure, and Lou. I mean, Lou.

As couple of nice ones:

Winnik and a 5th for (a year of) Laich, Connor Carrick and a 2nd (Carl Grundstrom)

Polak and Spaling for two 2nd round picks and Raffi Torres.

Nice deals.

My thoughts on Higgins, and why PTOs will likely be more popular than ever this year, in the new blog:

The only plan I see is getting lucky and landing the first overall pick when a generational talent was available. Other than that, not really sure about the rest of the plan.
- Scooby_Doo


Only thing to add is a teardown otherwise no plan is visible.

Deals that make a difference only matter.
Trades r chess moves til a winner results & r overblown in Toronto.
Big trades r of interest not picks that rarely amount to anything.
Eg. Kaapenen/Andersen for Kessel or Phaneuf for trash r unspectacular.

Tebow on a PTO for the Leafs u heard it here 1st😜
