Any little edge, like the extra year.

it turns out to be:

Kessel for Stamkos, Andersen, Rychel

What the (frank) happened yesterday? I was at work

It's been a (frank)ing embarrassing few days to be English. First we let the neo-nazi female genitalia Farage pursuade the country to vote out of their arse and crash world markets, and then that pile of poop yesterday... the English guy who was voted as England's best player yesterday was brought on as a sub and played five minutes FFS!

My family is also of English descent. It is embarrassing.

That would be ideal but Stamkos might insist on that extra year and the bolts will be happy to get something other than nothing back. Works out for them two but the leafs dont have the upper hand here. Sort of.

If Stamkos says it's the Leafs then they have the only hand.

Plus, it would add a lot certainty going into july 1. Would know exactly what we can spend on free agents.

Neither he or his agents are that dumb. Might as well announce you'll take a discount and pay cut just to play for them.

What? Nobody will do a sign and trade unless it's 100%

plus maybe if they already have trades in place and are just waiting on Stamkos to pull the trigger

You do not.

It's tough to use a dial-up modem when all you have is a party line.

I suppose everything in moderation.

Unless its beer, tacos, guac or pizza.

I dont know what to say to this because I don't know what you're trying to say and how it ties into what I said. Ill make an attempt though. Obviously a sign and trade means a trade is happening. The point is that the 8th year be part of the package as per Stamkos request.

Funny, we have gone through all of that. The new technology is simply amazing.

But he won't agree if it's not to the team he wants to play for.
And he's has already worked out the contract.

If Bozak is part of the trade......

Obviously not. But he can easily make it part of his demands. And can choose not to sign a contract until a trade is agreed to. He can easily play hard ball and bluff that another team on his list is willing to offer it. I don't know why you think Stamkos is going to go to the leafs in a Matthews jersey waiving pom poms and begging for them to take him.

In Friday things change but as of today teams can only talk to Stamkos. Not sign him. So it's all negotiations not agreements until his demands are met.

I don't have the slightest clue if he'll be a Leaf I hope he will be.
Just think if there's a sign and trade then the deals done.
