You're always walking the racial tension line.. many ignorants/bigots dont think they are racist.. either way its not the end of the world, but in a public place its different than at the hunt camp for example..

And also everyone saying the "liberals" are whiners need to look at whos really whining.. "BOO HOO WE CANT BE IGNORANT TWATS ANYMORE
"

I'm white, not a liberal and a fan of hip hop

I don't think you're racist based on that comment, not because I agree with you, that was a brutal thing to say on your part but mostly because you can't determine a person to be a racist that easily...

I think you need to be a bit more accepting of other cultures.

African American culture, you know, the people that make up the large part of the NBA?

Cause you're you 0-25 in our arguements

Im re-posting this just because i want an opinion on it.

My take on it is this..

In theory its understandable why some may think thats a smart move for the Leafs. But i think its a horrible idea. They could get more from ARI than Dvorak and the 4th. The question of "is Matthews better than Dvorak and Tkatchuk combined?" Isnt that simple. Its not even a given that both of those guys would produce more than Matthews. Every team has a set amount of forwards, so if we got Dvorak and Tkatchuk you have to consider thats two roster spots instead of one. Whoever ends up playing with Matthews is going to be a good player so the equation would look more like Matthews + player X vs Dvorak and Tkatchuk.

Theres actually a significant difference between a good player and a very good player.. thats gamebreaker ability. I would rather at this point have a very good player join the Leafs opposed to two good players. It's kinda like saying would you rather have Stamkos or Kucherov and Palat? The latter two may combine for more points, but they aren't elite. They aren't gamebreakers.. (kuch is a playoff savage tho). The Leafs already have the bottom 9 players they need. Marner will create chemistry with anyone he plays with. I think people put too much stock in junior line combinations. Trying to be greedy and more out of the 1st pick by trading it would be a massive mistake and Leafs management would never go for it. If you have a chance to draft a talent like Matthews you do it.

It also wouldn't speed up the rebuild as both those players would some more seasoning (tkatchuk in london and Dvorak with the Marlies). Matthews would step in immediately and contribute. Matthews would instantly make the players around him better and also attract decent FA's to want to sign in TO. Theres many spin-off effects going the Matthews route. Thats why i think the Leafs wouldnt consider it unless it was an offer they couldnt refuse.
