Poor Gustavsson. He didn't know what to say when Dutchie asked about what other offers he got.

And yet also ridiculously defensively...

They'll tighten up the ship for next year, no doubt in my mind. Suter would be huge for them too, obviously. Like I just said, they'll get one of them.

Darren Dreger ‏@DarrenDreger
At least 3 formal offers on the table for George Parros, while teams have said they will circle back. Not surprised. Tough and he can play.

The epitome of Free Agent Frenzy.

The sad thing is...Burke is probably one of those teams .

Konopka to the Wild... Guess they just got wilder....





I'll get my coat...

So what speech will we get from Burke when he doesn't do anything today?


Burke "Look, if we wanted to hand out these long term deals, we could have. But I'm not going hurt us in the long run just because you guys wanted to. Last I checked the season doesn't start until October"




Some dude "So you have some deals your working on to make an impact right away?"


Burke "No"

Shut up Mclennan. You and Mike Johnson should be unemployed.

I love them both.

Lundin to OTT is an under-rated signing.

lol i've been saying the same poop they just said about Semin for 3-4 years.

That's one good thing about this off-season, we pretty much know 100% that Toronto isn't signing Semin.

True, but you get some people that just think "Oh he's a good goal scrorer, lets get 'em!"

Go Leafs GO!!!! Get Brodeur and Parise.

Whatever it is, it'll be the same song and dance. Then he'll get mad at a reporter for daring to ask about why he hasn't tried fixing anything.
