Connor McDavid is the only package they would take for that 1st overall. The magnitude of what it represents, the rejuvenated interest in the team, merch sales, ability to draw FA's... it's a cascading affect of awesomeness. Taking a pile of poop from Arizona or any other team for that matter in exchange for that 1st would be the biggest blunder ever made in hockey.

Trudeau >>>>> Harper.


I don;t care about conservative vs Liberal as much, but Harper was a (frank)ing lunatic. When the Conservatives put forward a viable candidate who can actually see the big picture, I'll happily give them my vote.

I like his attitude of having fun during the game with the Usain Bolt poses.

For sure. Kids are entertaining. Never know they may beat them.

My wife and I were invited by Tom Bitove to the first ever Raptors game at the Metro center in Halifax. It was a pre-season game between the 76ers and the Raptors. Court side and got to meet a bunch of the players. Very cool. Raps won.

This is very dramatic.
But yes, if the Yotes offer you OEL, Strome and their 1st...... (Huge overpayment - but its what the trade chatter has been about), I bet the leafs would take it.
Again, they wont be trading the 1st...but there are many possible trades packages from a couple of teams that could entice them to do so. If any of those teams wanted to overpay.

Uhh no

Because after all the damage the cons have done all it would take for him to vote for them is to have a "reasonable" candidate...

Harper and the cons are (frank)ing criminals... disguising religious egomaniacs hellbent on making canada and oil-plutocracy... Mandatory minimum sentences for drugs possession..

its sickening what they did to Canada... The whole world hated us when he was in power. Trudeau is the (frank)ing man, and Canadians will continue to vote for him because they see that he's genuine.

I don't really get it either. Most people are already giving them the L.

Only thing that worries me is this:





Dude get's these calls all.the.time.

Bring in Donaghy to officiate every game. Make sure he bets on the dinos. That should work.

nope..

not a huge overpayment...

Strome will be decent, but not anywhere near as good as Matthews/Marner etc..

OEL is overrated and would be exposed in TO...

The 7th wouldn't do much for th Leafs now... maybe in 3 years.

What the hell kind of BS is this? No they did not.
Trudeau has yet to do anything in office....to say he is better than harper is simply too soon....not enough time in office to do anything yet.
Could that change? For sure. But too soon right now.

Nothing wrong with mandatory minimum sentences for drug possession.....that seems a little out of place in your rant there.

Either way, lets see what Trudeau can do.

Or just send Biyambo out first game to punch Lebron in the face right away so he's scared the rest of the series...

I hope if Lebron starts flopping the Raptors go public about it.. Just get into a skirmish and expose him.. Wade tried to do it last series.. it was hard to watch.

They could give OEL, Strome, this years 1st, Domi, next years 1st........ still a terrible trade.

You need to look past the names being tossed around and "1st rounders" and come to an educated conclusion of what that 1st overall means.

It means you get to be the first to pick an unproving potential NHL commodity.
Again, the leafs arent trading it......but they could if a team were to hugely overpay.

Ask every leader in the EU about Harper.. they'll cringe... they hated him.

Mandatory minimum sentences for drug use is insane.. its counter productive. Our return to prison rate is sky high here because they learn how to be criminals in prison. They dont counsel them like in some European countries...

Harper was vile trash... Scientists aren't silenced anymore. We are building better relationships with the first nations people finally... we are stepping away from being an oil state.. we have real climate change commitments.. (probably wont live up to them tho)
