Lu wont get traded till the offseason. He is essentially worth draft picks right now and why would MG trade him for picks when he can just wait till the offseason and get the same offer. Leafs wont be giving up multiple players and picks for Lu. Bozak for Lu is a deal I think both parties should take. ITs not ideal value for Lu but it helps us right now.

Kadri is carrying the leafs. He will make 5 mil for 2 years is my call and well worth it.

I agree completely but slimy agents will use it as a line in the sane during negotiations.

"My client scored x amount of points more than this player making 5 million and you want to give my client how much money?"

Hate agents

So as a kid from London how much does he stand to make in endorsement money?

That's all it should take to keep an agent at bay. He also gets to play in front of family / friends.

True. I hope you are right but usually greed takes over in most situations.

I would love to see a bridge contract of 3-4 years at 3.5-4 mill a season.

If he performs at the same level consistently, then we will talk long term for big money.

You need protection when you go to those kind of sites too often

I suggest you invest in a solid antivirus, or a mac.

I think if it's 4 years it's north of $4 million. If the kid believes in himself he knows he's gonna get paid later, we just had a lockout. He's not going to want to be locked in for that price.

Nice save Lu. I kinda feel bad for the guy tonight.

He got pressed into the game before his Ipad was warm.

He had a good 3 minutes or so, but I expect him to show up for a full 60 minutes before I'll anoint him first star. Growing pains, I guess.
