Well Tavares is my favourite player, and yes I would. But I'm sure NYI would ask for even more, like a 1st, which I would say no to.

Kess Bozak and a 1st??

Id probably say (frank) it, get it done. We need a #1 badly.

don't think alcohol was involved just plain old stupidity and driving way too fast showing off

Meh, he was drinking earlier that night. Driving recklessly.

“@mirtle: Reading the tea leaves, seems Leafs wanted to change half their blueline, swapping Gunnarsson, Franson, Franger for Robidas, Gorges, Polak.”


Gleason?

(frank)ing hell, Franger, the love child of Paul Ranger and Jeff Finger?

I say be patient, who knows, maybe Nylander can become one.

I do take it seriously. I think he is very under-rated. If he had the same points but was 6'4 220 no one would say we needed a top line centre.

Besides what you said above he is also great buds with Kessell. I think if Toronto traded Bozak you would find Kessel in the dumps.

yes they would.. because we would have Michal Handzus..and he is not a #1 center either.

for the record I think MH is better

Jvr Tavares Lupul.. That'll work
- Arctic_AARDVARK

Lupul?

He's averaged 54 games a year over the last 4 (extrapolated) 82 game seasons. And these are his "healthy" years.
Can't count on Lupul on the 2nd line let alone the 1st line. This is why I, Tooley Moron think the Leafs need to upgrade that 2nd line in order to be contenders. The Leafs potentially have no 2nd line wingers to play with a marginal (but developing) 2nd line center, then wonder why the 1st line ran out of steam or got checked to death down the stretch.

If plan C was signing Ott, and plan D was not signing Ott... well, I like plan D

Ranger and Fraser.... Still referring to them as a group even though Fraser long gone.

You should look at Bozaks #'s away from Kessel.

I bet he scores less away from kessel but is 6'4" 220lbs.

He and Franson were one of the best pairings in the NHL

Maybe Heatley should have listened to that Ottawa coach that told him his skating needed work. Instead he pouted and demanded a trade...and now...minimum wage

Looks good on him...
- Garnie

Yes because he hasn't earned 10's of millions of dollars since then!
He's the one laughing

No one beat up 4th lines like them. Best sheltered pair ever.

oddly enough, for the leafs, that IS a culture change
- Dozzer

those mlse, PPP etc accounts and the likes do nothing but female dog and moan, why people follow them is beyond me, just like the hope smoke guy who just repeats everything other people say, can`t think for himself I guess.

As opposed to Steve Ott? I'd rather take the $1m garbage than the $2.6m garbage
