Hey, if they come at a reasonable price, it can't hurt.

You could maybe make the case for Lecavalier, but I doubt he wants anything to do with Toronto.

As for heatley, he's a cancer to the team. He left a great situation in Ottawa while in a fit, and his career hasn't recovered. He's simply not the same player and never will be

I freely admit I know absolutely nothing about this Gordon guy, but could you consider him an upgrade on Komarov?
- Atomic Wedgie

Different type of player, Frenchie knows more what he brings than me, he is the one who sold me on Gordon.

McLement played literally every position in the top 9 at one point or another. Having 2 guys who can do that is a good thing, especially at cheap cap hits

When guys like these guys are in your bottom 6, you will succeed

Only one player in the Leafs system plays like him, Brad Ross and he is not ready yet, so who is going to replace him?

You have Sam Carrick and Wil Acton but neither are true agitators like him.

why does the Nation continue to say that they need a #1 goalie????? holy flyin' fiddler, if it weren't for Reimer, Toronto probably doesnt make the play-offs and definitley doesn't get to game 7 against Boston.

Say we trade for luongo. 2ndrounder and ashton or whatver the lame deal was between us and the nucks. We get luuu

Reimer did an amazing job right? We get to use reimer as trade bait for something big upfront

He's good he's not a saviour either he has some really bad moments he was great in Boston series also let in four goals in under 10 mins too. His consistency may be an issue

ya I don't see goaltending as an issue at all. Top pairing Dman and forward depth are more important.

He had his ups and downs for sure.
Can he stay the course for a full 82 games...who knows.
But if you have the chance to upgrade...you take it.

At this point, I would only trade Bozies rights or a 3rd/4th rounder for Lou.
But I'd rather go after the king in NY.

Any schmuck you grab as a UFA.

48 games, 4 goals, 5 assists. 2nd line PK unit. 18 minutes in penalties. 10th amongst forwards in TOI/G.

He's not the next Gretzky, Leafs Nation.

- Atomic Wedgie


Its the stats that dont appear on the stat sheets that make him important....agitating, net presence etc

The problem with the king he would cost alot, luuu wont cost much, i know reimer did an amazing job, but we could of used reimer as trade bait if we acquire luongo in the summer, to trade for something better upfront or on defense.
