Carlyle had his team stop skating!?!? Don't think so. Boston took over the game. Period and the Leafs had no response. It's game 7 so once 2 goals go in you call time out if you feel you have a response. Like Franson said they were gassed. Boston took the life right out of them.

He admitted it. The leafs skated all around Boston. If they kept skating, boston doesn't make that comeback.

Its hard to tell if this is a serious question. How can anyone think that Stastny is better than Bozak? How could anyone think trading Phaneuf - a guy who I now for a fact got Norris trophy votes - should be traded? This is all insane.

Do not under any circumstances aquire P. Stastny.

For u maybe...

Not all Leaf fans wanted Burke to overpay for him and leave the Leafs with a near unmovable contract.....

How has it changed to that??? I didn't say otherwise.......I said there are are plenty of reasons but this (the report you posted) isn't one of them.

When Boston got physical, then started to cross the edge without being penalized for it, the Leafs didn't respond in kind. Like many hockey people said, they lacked push back, and they paid for it.

I knew this would be a problem when Philly almost decapitated Lupul, and his teammates (and many in Leaf nation sadly, like when Roenick broke Sundin's jaw) said ho hum, and went limp. This team needs to replace players who don't push back, and replace them with ones who do.

Clarkson would be a good start, then maybe go out and sign a guy like Torres, since nobody else wants to get their hands dirty. Make teams know if they want to cross the edge, we'll meet them there in the most assertive manner possible.

I remember when it would have taken Kadri, Schenn and a first to get stastny...

now Stastny is not even close to being worth any one of these assets.

Whether it's Stastny or someone else, the time is now to acquire a no. 1 centre through a trade, as opposed to drafting one, which is not in the cards. The cap is dropping, and financial pressure will be there with other teams to shed salary. The Leafs are in a pretty good place capwise to acquire a no. 1. You've got to generally feel, based on past history, that the cap will slowly rise back up in future years. If they really want to deal for a No. 1, it's gonna be this summer.

No clue. I figured they'd want to change Canada Day or Thanksgiving Day to something else.

What about Frattin & a 1st? The Leafs 1st pick is 20th so it is a tradable pick. Frattin is a goood young talent but ya gotta give up something good to get something good. U aint getting Stastny for a bag of pucks.

Listen man... I love you.

You're like the anti-native.

You work, don't drink Listerine, don't expect government handouts, and live off a reserve.

Doesn't it bug you sometimes when it's a slow news day for a bunch of lazy, teepee dwelling mother(frank)ers to start some new poop like this and make you look bad?

"Leafs fans being delusional as usual.
What kind of value do you think centers like Graboski and Bozak who wouldn't crack a decent top 6 and shouldn't play in the bottom 6 have?

Stastny is 25 and have been a PPG center for about 5 years.

It has to include Schenn and Kadri and If I'm the Avs, I decline."

-Crazy Avs fan

Imagine if we had Stastny instead of JVR AND Kadri...we would be terrible!

Stastny isn't a #1 and is way overpaid.

Apparently it's now called Victoria Day & First People's Holiday. Something to do with the natives.
