Then we'll need a winger for our new 1st line center. The Leafs probably wouldn't get fair value in return for Kessel though so I'd rather they kept him. I don't even want to think about trading him lol.

Rather have a top line centre than a top line winger, but that's just me. Plus we have some decent wingers at present and it's easier to draft/sign/trade for a winger than it is a centre, IMO.

Take Lupul for example, he was a throw-in and he's on our top line now. JVR is arguably a top line guy as well.

Terrible decision to not give him one more year.. Must mean bozie just has to sign on the dotted line
- SameOld

Oh God, I hope not.

I'd rather have Grabbo than Blowzak.

You will never win with Blozak.

Bad move.

Watch, he'll go over to Detroit to replace filpula, and absolutely shred it all year long.

Leaf nation will be blowing their brains out

I've been saying: using the compliance on Komisarek didn't make any sense, should have just used a regular buyout saving the compliance for Liles if necessary. Would have saved us more cap space as well.

Who would Toronto realistically get for Kessel? Doubt Toronto would get a point a game center in return. I know you're basically talking about a scenario where you have to trade him because he won't re-sign but that'd be a bummer. I doubt you'd get anyone as good as him in return.
