Keefe's only line on him is "the flight was tough on him" give me a break

When the coach calls you to the back of the plane to tell you you've been traded to San Jose, don't you think that would be tough on a man?

Those cushy leafs private jet seats are probably more comfy than my bed.

I actually do wonder what teams are on his no trade list, you can't change it once you submit it in the summer so.

Once Karlsson was traded in the summer, you'd imagine you would be OK with SJ if he was traded. He was also probably thinking TDL for the Leafs, which if he was getting traded would be the most likely time for him to get traded.

Highly doubtful CGY is on it.

2 wins and a game behind is a lot. Especially when the Leafs haven't played their best hockey.

Tampa does not look good.

They have the same amount of wins as the Sens.

Considering its November, no its not. Not at all.
Now if it were early Apil....then yes, i would agree.

Yeah a lot of us Leaf fans were dumb for that.

Hope they don't trade him.

- Santo_44

Why exactly were they dumb for that?

Supposed to come back on Nov 23 from what I understand.

Should give them a big boost.

- Scabeh


It'll give my Yahoo team a boost, that's for sure.

Since the moron coach on the Island keeps playing (frank)ing Varlamov as much as Sorokin.

Most were fine with shipping him out for scraps.

They were dumb because they would be selling low.

If your buddy is stressed, tell him to go play a relaxing game of golf.

Oooooh, wait...

Who knows, maybe family stuff in Sweden.

If there is a deal thats basically done unless Zadorov, Tanev, or anyone involved has a season ending injury the trade will happen eventually.

I have no idea, its just very odd that he is a complete no show while Timmins is practicing and Lil makes an appearance to Sweden legend Borje's celebration. The no show on Borje's night is little annoying...like why aren't you there? Sounds like his injury should be pretty bad then but looked fine on Friday.

Keefe's only line on him is "the flight was tough on him" give me a break

- Santo_44

You may be reading into it too much.
Here is his full quote:

Keefe: "He just wasn’t ready to go today. We think there is a chance he could be on the ice on Friday, but of course, I would say his chances of playing on Friday are low right now just given the fact that he hasn’t skated since the game the other night.

We are hoping to use this time, with the gap in between, to give him the time to heal and also have some aggressive treatment with him to really help. That has taken longer than thought, but the expectation or hope is that once he gets over the hump, he will be feeling better.

He just wasn’t feeling right to get on the ice today. I don’t think the long flight did him any favours coming over here, either."

Unless Toronto is drastically overpaying, i see no reason why Calgary would trade any of their D right now. Lots of teams will overpay in Jan to the TDL.

It’s pretty scary. There’s a whole town that might be history any time now.

Does anyone not find it at least a little strange Klingberg has missed 3 straight practices(Timmins is even practicing) , missed out on Borje's celebration night with the other swedes but still played Friday in what was arguably his best game of the season?(not hard I know)

But still...a 7-8 hour flight really made him bed ridden enough to not even show up to Borje's celebration? FFs even Lil was there in his walking boot.

Me thinks he has been told he has been traded.

Maybe, maybe not. More teams will be sellers and less teams as buyers the closer to TDL it gets I'd imagine.

He's probably the sweetener in the Klingberg cap dump trade.

Buddy needs to (frank) off. Saying people suggesting it was intentional is deplorable. What's deplorable is intentionally lifting your leg that high at another player carelessly, and killing him. If that was his son or brother or father or family member dead from it I'm sure he would be si going a different tune.
