For the Leafs' sake, Kessel can't be out for a long time.
Bozak has been doing not that bad point wise recently.

Been saying that about the Leafs since I started following hockey in 1976. Frankly I am getting sick & tired of being sold on false hope only to get dissapointed, year after year.

Ya it's working well....


They not good depth guys as depth clearly a issue at this point...

- Fruitcakenipple


Depth would be an issue for any team without its top 3 centers.

If you look at our organizational depth chart, we're icing a #6 as #1C (Holland), our #2 as #2 (when Kadri actually plays and performs to expectations), our #4 as #3 (McClement), and our #5 as 4C.

The 7th guy on the depth chart was only just sent down today after playing regular shifts for weeks.

Due to injuries/suspensions, everyone is playing above his head. Yes, yes, I know it's no excuse, but it's also insane not to acknowledge that this might be having just a tiny impact on our recent troubles.

MIke Keenan & Pat Quinn are past their time. Ron Wilson is an A-HOLE. But Peter Laviolette???? Hmmmm that's intriuging if RC can't hold onto his job.

We played last night without Franson, Kadri, Lupul, Bozak and Bolland. Kinda hard to win games...Still, not an excuse VS teams like Mon, Buff, Columbus.

There really isn't anyone on the trade market that'd be a good boost to us right now.

Kulikov'd be nice but really without a top centre we're screwed. It's actually gotten really ridiculous.

really hard to play good without a decent centre.

Bozak may be injured right now but his ability was noticed when he came back.

It all depends on what you're offering. If you are putting Kessel out there then the return will be great. If it's Bozak, you're getting poop.

I was being sarcastic. Crawford would destroy this roster. Mr Mindgames.

RC's fine. He's just a hardass.

Gotta get true top six players on your team. That's on Nonis.

I'd rather move Dion in a package for a centre. I don't care how great he is in our own zone, if we don't get a centre that can really command the play then we'll be spending so much time in our own zone that we won't have a chance.

He was considered great for his offense, something he hasn't provided. Most of his points are gravy secondary assists on the PP from all the work Kessel's line does.

Dion and Kadri.

That'd land us a good centre. Provided it's a location where he'll likely resign.
