Let's just focus on current Leafs disastrous goaltending decisions, OK?

We don't need to dig up 40 year old painful memories.

I don't recall that trade. Who did the Leafs give up for Neely?

Kessel isn't going to walk. That's certain.

However he may get traded depending on the outcome of this season.

- A_Tree

Agreed. I think Kessel is very misunderstood. He's just a quiet, shy kid.

Some have accused him of so things that aren't even true or that aren't his fault:

- he has no heart
- he isn't a franchise player

All of it is bullpoop if you ask me. Kessel would re-sign in Toronto given the right price.

The minute the CBA is ratified...

I get the feeling the Luongo deal is already done now that Burke isn't around to stop it.

They're just waiting for the green light from the league.

There's a report in MTL saying PK Subban has agreed to a 4yr, $22M deal. His agent tells me that's not true. Said: "No deal has been done."

And Kessel has never scored 50-60 goals and 100 points every year for a six straight years.

And back then it was considered "good" for a goalie to have a GAA below 3.

Except the part where Burke wasn't stopping it in the first place. But facts usually get lost with you don't they?

It's been widely reported that he was stopping it, because the price being asked was too high.

But I guess that fact will dawn on you Monday morning, when Luongo is a Leaf, and Kadri + is shipped to Vancouver.

You mean if you grossly overpay a player, he will stay? What a revelation.

Bob McKenzie said it clear as day, Burke wasn't against Luongo and he was going to go after him anyway. Both Burke and Nonis disagreed with the price Vancouver set.

Darren Dreger said it clear as day, Burke got fired because of his attitude and his style.

Those are the facts and it's time you deal with them.
