Good job on the trade....1st roun pick for those guys is good value, don't know sheet about the prospect but if Jokinen can be flipped for a late pick all in all that's not bad.

They are old now. What's your point?

Well, if that's the criteria you're using, Kadri would be second on the Canucks. The first round pick would be your best prospect as well.

But if you're happier with junk like Shawn Matthias and Markstrom, all the power to you.

Sedins numbers are the same as Kadris as the play their back three holes.Kadri is in his prime. Kadris numbers are the same as Matthias. The Sedins have collected the hardware and are soon to retire.

I still don't understand your argument

They're nowhere near the same. Kadri is a playmaker. He's not there to score goals, and he's far, far, FAR better than Shawn Matthias, who is three years old and yet to crack.... 24 points....

So your centre is a playmaker and our centre isn't

That's typical of you.

Leafs trade their best d man this year and a very useful utility man for pretty much a late first rounder and b-c prospect. (Jokinen)
- Snagglepuss[/quo]

No our best D man is Reilly. Franson is a ufa who wanted term and money we didn't want to give him so yeah a first rounder in a great draft plus b prospect, plus them not here makes us weaker to get a better draft pick, plus much needed salary cap room....great trade

Haha. Slight difference between a 50 point second line centre, and a guy who's career high is 24 points.

It's Toronto we're talking about, they are cursed. In typical Leafs fashion they'll find a way to (frank) up this rebuild by making crappy trades, drafting bad, hiring the wrong people, etc. Should be fun to watch.

Only the leafs would wait till the season is almost over and then decide to tank. The fix is in my money is on them not finishing in the bottom two and still getting mcdavid

Remember all the leaf fans preaching about how any franchise or fan base that would tank or cheer for losses were a disgrace to the nhl?

Those were the days...
