Ya but as it turns out, Colborne is more than capable of doing everything Connolly does (read: nothing) for a small fraction of the cap hit. Oh and if Connolly wasn't blocking him, he could be developing at the NHL level, which is what he needs at this point. So ya, Connolly signing: EPIC FAIL.

I'm saying give up on him and get something while you can.

We have 3 goalies coming up with good AHL numbers, better than Reimer's numbers too.

I'm tired of watching our future goalies go thru their growing pains as the Leafs #1 starter.

We need a veteran starter who can hold the fort until they are ready, similar to how we went from Fuhr to Potvin. Yes, it has been that long.

they're is no way that grabo goes to the avs unless stasny is coming the other way (which i would hate) and he will fetch at least a first or a second with a prospect.

You (or anyone) should replace Berger as the third Leafs blooger on HB.

That's what I mean, people see him with some value still.

We aren't going to get a veteran goalie rental with Joey Crabb unfortunately.

We have several Reimers coming up thru the AHL so I think he is expendable.

Just my opinion.

Give me a break Ek, there's no way Nash accepts a trade here when he knows he can go to San Jose, NYR or whatever other teams might spring up if Columbus waits till the draft. Also Calgary doesn't have the assets.

Also nice job ignoring all the reports from last night, from Lombardi himself, that basically said Nash didn't really want to go to LA either.

So Marty St Louis is somehow tall and big enough to be a superstar? How does that work?

If Derek Roy - who posses some pretty slick offensive skills - was bigger in both height and weight it would make him a ton more dangerous then he is.

Ya, size in todays NHL isn't what it was 20 years ago..heck maybe even 10 years ago...but it's still important.

Theres a reason so many teams are looking for big bodied skilled centers and are willing to pay insane amounts to get them.

Roy is already a good player - upping some of his attributes would only make him more dangerous.

Flames could offer their entire farm system for Nash and still not get him

All I can say about Grabo is that I have no problem if he was a Leaf until the day he retires.

He is just getting better and better it seems. Regardless of his point totals at season's end, he is much improved this year.

Even when he starts aging, with his hustle and puck control I can see him easily finishing his career on the 3rd or 4th line.

A player like that you always have a use for somewhere in the lineup.

Now if he can just lower his asking price

"Everyone is ready to get shipped out any day," Quincey told Yahoo. "There's a lot of guys, their bags are packed beside the door, and they wouldn't be unhappy to go, trust me. I know I had a big smile on my face, and all the guys were jealous."

Sounds like a winning culture.

But this speaks more about Quincy than what is going on with the Avalanche.
