I wonder if kessel will score ever
- The_Vark

At least he's doing better than 5.5 million Grabovski

I would suck ur Richard for duchene .... And 2 think Burke could have trade schenn 2 tb and drafted him
- The_Vark

And to think Burke could have traded Kaberle and what turned out to be Kadri for Kessel and the leafs could have still kept their picks - which turned out to be hamilton and Seguin.

But coulda, shoulda, woulda.....who knows.

Avs wont want two Dmen....plus the leafs would be foolish to give up two dmen.

It would be Gardiner, 2nd and Kulemin...or Gardiner , 1st, McGegg or another offensive forward prospect.
- Fakepartofme

you could get a lot more than O'Reilly for Gardiner and a first, especially when that first could be a lottery pic

Gunnar, Percy and MacArthur.


That's the trade.

...that the avs wont want.

- bobbyisno1

Oh I agree.
Hence, why I wouldn't do the trade.

that the avs wont want.
- Fakepartofme

And you know how?

Like the Ducks didn't want Beauchemin, no team would of traded for Lombardi, ect ect


Calgary wouldnt want spare parts for their best Dmen.

If that's what it would take, the Leafs should have nothing to do with O'Reilly. He isn't the top line center we need and that package is too much for a 2nd line center which we already have filled multiple times over.

that will be over a week bro - and its only supposed to be 1 week.

no. At least a week. He has his knee scoped.

yeah - im hoping saturday, thats over a week.

just thinking positive is all, no need to 'burn' me

Did they find any damage, anything torn?

Then thats your problem...you think it will only be Gardiner and a throw in...it wont.

Why is that my problem?

Ya neither of those trades were for a high end young offensive and defensive forward.
At the time it was Beauchemin for a young D prospect and a salary dump of an often injured player.
Calgary wanted Phaneuf out of town...Burke robbed them.
Lombardi was traded for a round draft pick...big deal...no one said he couldnt be traded.

Think about it.

I don't think that's too far off,

Why is that my problem?

Not being realistic.

What??

Who so??? How is that my problem?

You dont think thats a lot?
- Fakepartofme

Jake has proved nothing, Kuli has not played well in 2 years...I'd do it..

Jake needs to be able to stay healthy, he has to prove that. He is hardly Justin Schltz. -1 in the AHL, and has not shown this big offensive side, why not, do the deal.

You dont think thats a lot?
- Fakepartofme

Didn't you just say I was being unrealistic??? make up our mind.

And I do think it's a lot and you have to give to get.

Oh gawd please keep up.
My realistic comment was in reference to a specific post of yours....not one of mine.

- big_dion

I want to be positive too, but also realistic. they said at least a week, that doesn't mean count exactly 1 week forward and he's ready. I see it as at least 2 weeks. He was cut open and had his knee scoped. the stitches alone to heal are 2 weeks.

Did they find any damage, anything torn?
- bixll

They didn't say anything, so I don't think so. It was just to clean up scar tissue from the original surgery.

I have no problems with dealing Kuli.....but Gardiner has been injured this year only.....he had a conscussion....it would be foolish to deal him based on that.
Patience.

I just hope the Leafs don't do something stupid between now and the playoffs...

It would only be a small hole in his knee, or 2..

He can play through that..
