i bet coburn is traded to the oilers now
- Mapleleafs_91

No way...He'll be part of the B.Schenn package for a defensive upgrade...

Sucks we didn't get Vinny but glad we bought out Komisarek. Still think we shouldn't have wasted a compliance buyout when he only has one year but oh well.
- deerow84

Agreed.

Fack, no Vinsanity... Bozak for 8 years at 5M here we come!

HH will be so happy

Did we? Do you know for sure if its a normal buyout, or a compliance?

for who
- Mapleleafs_91

Bozak..

They never do Burn, you know that. I dunno why you buy out Bryz and Briere and Grab Vinnie leftovers for 5 years Sorry Freaky, but how you gonna get Jagr Now??

I'm not talking about making it work team wise, I'm talking about the cap.

Couldn't the sub-caption read:

which word is worse:

Niggger? or the C-word?
- AngryWhiteMale

I just can't imagine anyone making the cracker is worse argument....you'd have to be as smashed on cocktails as a Vinny Lecavalier

Is there a Leafs defenceman that can equate to Couturier?

Commence Vinny bashing: "totally washed-up... LOL Philly! Buy out in two years... Luongo 2.0 contract"

Okay lets start again for that search for our 1st line centerman..... S-T-A-S-T-N-Y

Philly is 1/3rd of the way there....just need some defense and a goalie and they will be set

@Real_ESPNLeBrun - There's a full No-Move Clause in Lecavalier's deal

Somebody page Dr. NHL. It was Bettmans fault, he stopped Lecav from signing here.

Poor Vinny. He had the opportunity to be on the straight and narrow, a true hero to children, given the keys to the city....yet that all changed 10 minutes ago when the truth came out about his gambling and alcohol addictions, his seedy history with prostitutes and his numerous restraining orders.

Can Pronger be traded?

Phaneuf for Pronger (Leafs will use amnesty buyout)

Clears your cap of "dead weight".

Leafs get L. Schenn & B. Schenn as a reward.

(You save $$ on x2 Schenn (3 mil + 3.5 mil + Prongers 5 mil = 11.5 mil &
Phaneufs cap = 6.5 mil) = 5 mil in cap savings.

Leafs get 2 good young players, and their cap hit is the same because they buyout pronger's hit.

- deerow84

Saving them for a raining day?? Only can use them this year or next. There aren't a lot of options. Buy out the 4.5mil that isn't even playing for you anymore.

- UsernameUnknown

I guess we don't know for sure at this point, just seems like it would be compliance based on the timing.
