He's getting paid 7 million this season, 6 million next season.

That's insanity considering he's now a bottom 6 guy.

Edmonton, Ottawa, Buffalo. Just guesses.

So Dion for Richards was a good deal, right?

but he'd be a first line centre on the Leafs

5v5 PTS/60 for this season:

Mike Richards: 1.27
Tyler Bozak: 1.25
David Clarkson: 1.24

i was talking about the post you responded to, don't get so defensive

Ahh I never knew you were Bobby.

When do we find ou if he's claimed? Tommorow?

franker

No one will claim him. Not at that salary.
- Pecafan Fan

will be interesting to see... not a bad idea on the part of the Kings... if they really can't get any trade value at all out of him....

Wow! Richards on waivers?

What is the process if more then one team wants him?


PLEASE NONUTS.... get Richards and get rid of BLOWZAK
- Hockey_Reverend

That'd be cool if you didnt have to sign Kadri and Bernier long term..

I don't think you realize how bad Richards has become. Dude has 15 points this season

how do you know now?

Tomorrow at noon.

Leafs should pick him up.
Nobody is getting moved until the off season. 9 points from the playoffs with still a half season to go. Might as well try...

They were expected to be a bubble team and that's where they will finish.
- hunglikeapuck

Its funny most people want to rebuild this team with one or two first and a couple of second rounders.

But how many top 6 picks and first rounders do we have on this team that are all still young?

Remember folks. Philly made a mistake trading Richards for Simmonds and Schenn because Richards won a cup..

they should trade Bernier, problem solved.
5 mill for that guy
Leafs are stuuuuuupid

ummm, jeff carter?

2 cups

Yeah, same logic that says Boston won the cup because of the Kessel trade.

given the market and his cap hit, Franson should absolutely be able to get a 1st from a playoff team.

top 10 pick highly unlikely, unless an extension was involved. Horacek may want to get a look at each of the kids that are "close" for the next while. Could see Loov, Nilsson and even MaxWilliam over the next while too.
- Badge

let's hope so.

also would send the correct message to Gardiner in particular.

"Hey ... look there's a ton of guys who can do what you do for a bunch less"...

He's getting paid 7 million this season, 6 million next season.

That's insanity considering he's now a bottom 6 guy.

I dont expect too many teams will be jumping on picking him up.

ummm, jeff carter?

2 cups
- Lucas Neilson

Voracek is one of the top scorers in the league today. And Couts is one of the best shutdown C's

how do you know now?

My response was to Bobby... you responded back to me, referring to the post I responded to as yours, but you were logged in as The_eye.

Plus they got Jeff Carter.
Richards actually played quite well during the first cup win

they should trade Bernier, problem solved.

exactly. Bernier hasn't proved yet that he's a true #1 workhorse... seems to tire out pretty quickly when they run him too many games in a row...

and there's that whole "letting in a softee trend"...

anything more than 3.5/year for an RFA would be nuts (my opinion).

- jbold

Neither of which would have helped L.A win the cup that year.
Carter and Richards did.

Addition by subtraction.

Just kidding.
