He has a NTC and would block that trade immediately.

Vokoun wanted to play for the Leafs so badly that when he was a UFA, he decided to sign with the Penguins for two years including a NTC.

He doesn't actually want a shot at winning a Cup. He just wants to play for the Leafs.

That's just his way of playing hard to get.

Blue Jackets are thin down the middle in their future as it is. Can't see them believing Bozak solves that problem.

Wouldn't necessarily mind having Sutter, but I don't think Kulemin's worth it.

And we really don't have much in the way of space down the middle so realistically if this happens it'll be in the off season when they determine what they're doing with Bozak.

Still, they'll need to figure out what to do with Mac first, as I doubt he's worth giving another 3m per deal to...

at first i thought no way for cbj. as they wouldnt deal theor future 1 center johansen. (and they probably never would)
but this helps ther massive depth problems. still wouldnt have any stars though.

doubt it, but not the worst trade ive ever seen

Lots of teams COULD not sure how many would. You guys couldn't.

What would you give. Kessel O'Reilly, Gardiner , 3 1sts . I don't think that would do it.

Unless this team really hits the skids I can't see Nonis doing much of anything.

I doubt he'd be up for dealing with a conference opponent, and I doubt there's any western teams who are willing to give good value for one of our spare parts.

Plus we've had so many injuries it simply isn't a risk Nonis can afford to take.

You're right, he would much rather play for a bad team and miss the playoffs altogether rather than have a chance to not only win a Cup but also replace Fleury who was sub-par in the playoffs.

That's the one benefit of this team being in the middle of the pack. The longer they show they don't need Luongo, the better and hopefully he gets moved before Nonis is forced to do something stupid and acquire him.

I was happy not just to see Reimer play well enough to deserve an extended look so far this season, but Kadri and Frattin, two guys who's names have floated around in rumors, have given Nonis reason to hang onto them as well.

It's sad our defence is supposed to be our strength. We miss Gards on the PP and Gunnarsson in our own zone.

No way Columbus does this, But your idea gave me another idea. With John Tavares being the #1 center for the Isles for the next decade. Can the Leafs pry Strome away? I know Leaf fans have a hard on for Neiderieter but Strome fills the Leafs needs for the future more. Would the Isles be interested in Kulemin?

I'm starting to think Kessel did run over a black cat or walked under a ladder or opened up an umbrella inside. Mabie he pissed off the evil spirit Loki.

Maybe none of those things matter and it's just time to trade him and start over.

I haven't seen many leaf fans dreaming about Nino.
