Jim Rutherford told me on the phone last July he thought Morgan Rielly was best player chosen in '12 draft. But, no way #Leafs let him go.

Howard Berger ‏@Berger_BYTES1m
Makes zero sense for #Leafs to even consider trading Rielly or Gardiner to move up in draft. How can they get a better prospect? Dumb!

It really depends whose there I think. If Barkov falls (Let's say Lindholm goes 4, and the big three go in whatever order) you take the deal and run.

Jankowski will be the stud.

There was a cricket show on earlier, but no more.

Fish and chips would be great. Do you deliver to Edmonton?

Leafs played without Gardiner for most of the season. If they can get a potential franchise player in this draft for him....take it!

Agreed he is a liability in his own end..

okay - now I'm just plain worried.

If Berger has figured out that it is a bad idea - and announced to the world -

then there's the risk that Leaf management will believe its a good idea ....

Oh, I don't disagree with you there. That was one of the worst things about the Grabs contract is that it would make Bozak think he's worth that as well.

Two wrongs don't make a right. Unfortunately the guy who gave Grabs his money is in semi-retirement in Anaheim.

- djamon


yup.

the problem with Bozak is the frame of reference - which is Grabovski.

was exactly the same situation with Schenn playing behind Komisarek.

"If Komisarek is worth 4.5 a year.... "



The simple (but expensive) solution is to buy out or trade (if possible) Grabo.

Not only does it free up CAP space, it continues the tone of underachievers not being rewarded by Nonis. He ditched Connolly, Lombardi, Komisarek... hopefully he can to the same with Grabo and Liles.

Would you guys still be upset if TOR is able to get #5 from CAR without moving Gardiner/Rielly and they still pick Max Domi?
