Which teams would be in the market for:

- Lupul
- Phaneuf
- MacArthur
- Steckel
- Connolly
- Colborne

In my opinion, a few of these - especially the first two - have to be moved to deal with Leafs' most urgent needs (#1C,#1G, Size&Grit top 6 winger, PK specialist).

- MaximusAurelius


IMO, Lupul should be the captain. So I disagree on that point.

don't suck enough for that....Columbus will finish last, lose the draft lottery and pick 2nd again.....(frank)ing EDM will get 1st overall again
- Symba007

For you Habs fans:

Would you trade your first pick, next year(2013), for Toronto's 1st pick, this year(2012) at #5?

there is no way gillis would give up luongo for the price burke would be willing to pay

just isnt happening.

- Dozzer


So then we all agree that Mike Gillis is perfectly content bringing Luongo back next year and causing what was already a goalie/media circus to escalate to the next level?

Doubt it.

The simple fact is a guy like Lu isn't getting traded within the western conference. Simple as that. It will bite him in the ass.

So the question is, which team would fit the bill? Supply and demand means it's TOR or VAN

That's only because he played in QC, he couldn't understand all the french thrown at him. Bring him to TO, we have couple comrades for him in Kuli and Grabs.

How about a Spezza-type player and a Chara-type player.

Hell, I won't get greedy and ask for a Muckult-type player.

- AngryWhiteMale


yes, i do actually

gillis will have a price.. and nobody is gonna come close to it

and its the media blowing this out of proportion.. as per usual.. here's a scenario... luongo stays in vancouver and assumes the back up role and continues to be a consumate professional about it.

know why we never here that story?

cause its boring.

the media push these ideas even when they have no basis in reality.. its all about selling papers/blogs/whatever
