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

Kadri may have a high ceiling but he seems to be part of the problem. Don't think you will get the right return for Kessel, so the best value is Kadri.

Ruutu and Gelinas for Desharnais.

Lou Lamoriello must be salivating! I don't see NJ and the Habs as good trade partners. And, i don't really want Ruutu since we need a 2nd line winger and a top 4 D.

Nhlnumbers.com heard is an alternate but not as good as the geek .......

I'm just so used to the clean, simple look/interface of capgeek. nhlnumbers looks like a turd compared to it, but I guess it'll have to do.

Hilarious...the name that keep coming up......today I mean because I havent mentioned him yet is Ruutu.

I don't know if any contender is going to want him with that salary and another year on his contract.

Disagree have you watch Kadri this year he is the only one that is learning and playing well defensively as a forward.

So who are you going to move? No one wants Lupul, Clarkson etc. you will lose on a Kessel trade.

I'm curious as to what happened with the site. I know the founder is battling some sort of health issues but I find it hard to believe that entire operation was a one-man show. I'd be a little surprised if there was nobody(s) else that could keep it at least partially running?

Kessel phaneuf bozak what's that 19.5 mil in cap in the summer. I agree you may not "win" the kessel trade but you can't keep him or it will be the same thing year after year.

My guess is that its his creation and baby, doesnt want to see it sold off in the hopes he gets better so he can resume the site.

If his health as bad as it is, im sure he doesnt want to deal with the sale and running of it right now.
