Since Sensnucksnocups probably won't be around I thought I would try it on.....It's not a fit. Actually it sucks.

So let me get this straight....Carlyle and Nonis could have been fired at the same time?...and if Nonis was fired the new GM wouldn't make any moves?

see how ridiculous this sounds?

Ok as a leafs fan and knowingly being in the minority I don't believe that rc was the problem with this team
Is it easier to fire the coach,of course, will it have the effect that upper management is hoping for, no I don't think it will I just don't see the so called heart and soul with this team anymore. Is trading for Patrick m a part of the answer? No I don't believe it is this is the type of player a team try to add when the truly believe that they are close to something and I just don't see it in the leafs


Here's to hoping I'm wrong but I doubt it

Exactly. The likes of Staal, Marleau, etc. or any player isn't going to fix this mess. Blow the damn thing up already. Team is in terrible shape in almost every way. Cap/contracts, prospects (decent at best...terrible for a team who has made the playoffs once in 11 years), current roster makeup....depressing

Unless the leafs do something that makes them a cup contender in the next year Marleau is not a smart pick up. Why trade for a guy to be worthless when the Leafs are ready to compete.

How could these players not buy in. It's not like they are great. With the exception of Kessel which we know won't buy in, the others are interchangeable. Do you move Kessel? I still believe you need to move Phaneuf. How about Phaneuf and Kadri for Yandle and Domi!

As a leafs fan would.love this trade but as a realist I have to face palm the offer, If the totes were to trade away yandle you have to expect that they aren't looking to take salary back and I'm not sold on trading Kadri just yet might have the blinders on but I still think he can produce at a high level

With Parenteau's injury both Vermette and jagr would be on the 2nd line. As for Ruutu, injuries has made him a washed up 3rd liner.
