I don't like the Ribero rumblings, can't stand the guy and I wouldn't want him near the team. Also don't like the Grabo to Washington thing, Grabo on another team in the East would be kryptonite.

I haven't been as upset about Grabo as others, he's still fast as hell and is dangerous every time he has the puck. I don't expect many trades by the Leafs this year, probably only a dman.

I don't know where they came from, Mikes update says a hawks scout and capitals scout were seen at a Leafs/Marlies game. He then said Ribero and Grabo.

...while playing Vancouver affiliate...

and I'd imagine they've been watching many affiliates. That's what they do. Just doesn't make the papers when there isn't already a roomer...Still, never know.

Ribeiro stuff I've yet to see from anywhere credible...

Doesn't make a lot of sense to me when he's UFA and, although an upgrade, is still not a long term solution - 33 yrs old ATM, and skill set will likely decline faster than others due to his... lifestyle...

And more importantly ...still one of the best quotes in hockey.

markhmasters: Grabovski on big contract adding pressure: 'I don't think so. Anyways, I don't spend money. My wife spends money [pause] ... sorry wife.'

Wouldn't be surprised to see the Leafs go after Beach.

Guy's got top line powerforward potential, but his mind is broken. Could be a good Eakins reclamation project.

To clarify - John Jaeckel reported the Leafs scouts following Rockford, Mark Zwolinski reported rumors of interest in Ribeiro.

As a general rule, scouts watch hockey games. All sorts of games, against all sorts of opponents.

Ribeiro would be a better #1 C than Bozak...
Although I don't like trading for a UFA...and Ribeiro is making $5mil/season
Grabs for Ribeiro...then sign Ribeiro 3 years $14mil...cheaper than Grabs and more productive...

I wouldn't say goaltending is the main problem, but it is a problem with this team. Can you honestly feel comfortable with either of our goalies going forward?

I don't
