I am guessing we are unloading some LD's being that we have about 5-6 of them already. Scandella is on top of the list, but there is also Hundwick, McCabe, Pilut and obviously Dahlin unless he is moving over to the right side. Lots of changes needed if Gardner is coming here.

Added to your point with Dahlens’ deal on the horizon - 8 x 10 and so and Skinner perhaps being resigned @ 8x8 or so how are they going to afford Jake @ 7 or so ??

Its not hard. Each year players contracts expire, and the cap increases.

I see Gardiner going south. Someplace where the hockey lights don't shine as bright as TO. He has had it with having every move analyzed. To go to the rink for practice or games and then go home to peace and quiet must sound appealing to him at this stage of his career. To do it in a location that you can walk the beach on your days off....Heck I'm convinced. I'm moving mysef

Gardiner is made for a Southern market with little exposure. Does anyone think on Arizona anyone would know of any mistakes he made? He needs to get away from that.

Ah yes, Varlamov. Why re-sign the Vezina candidate that played for them last year and is three years younger when you can sign a 31yo Varlamov

We need a team looking to get to the cap floor, and it would take at least our second 1st round pick to do it. But it would be worth it.

No doubt Habs will talk to Eberle but I think he will want too much term, Bergy shouldn't go over 4 years and that probably won't get it done...

Where do you come up with these rumors? Is it in the morning while sipping on your mushroom tea watching the purple squirrels running by?

Only rumour that is remotely close to the truth in the past year would be Eberle to the Habs !!

Look at the rest of the cap. Not one player.

One bad contract after this season.

Like I said. Not that hard.

What would JGs value have been if he was traded. Leafs were not in win nowmode. Another wave of players gone with no return.

Considering he was out with back issues, and wasnt having the best year. I would think his trade value would be low, and not many contenders would've had interest in him either at that point.
