I grabbed it when they had all those games on sale. That and Skyrim. One of them was well worth the $22.

Why would you invent a fake girlfriend from Ottawa?

Does she have a fake invented chipped front tooth?

I’d not only be surprised, I’d be livid if the Leafs management decided to move any of these players. Now is not the time to panic or force the hand, the Leafs team must be looking at risk management as well as logic involved when making bold trades. The last thing we need is a Hall/Larsson type trade just as we start gaining traction. Making the playoffs this year is not important, what’s important is progressing forward game after game as a team and for the young guns to become comfortable at the NHL level with some success along the way. As the team gets a taste of winning, adding the proper pieces will eventually happen. Shanahan, Babcock and Lamoriello need to fully assess this new look Leafs roster for a good chunk of the season before making any rash decisions.

Amen, BigD

Oh, guess I should've read the blog. No wonder the Oiler fan commented. It all makes sense.

Why? Right now we poised to lose Marincin or Leivo in the expansion draft and have a chance to sign Shattenkirk in the off season. Even with a top 4 RHD added to our roster we are not a contender and are in no hurry this season.

If we trade JVR+++ for a young potential top 2 RHD then we have to expose Carrick or Brown and weaken our top 6 forwards. I don't want to have our rookies over stressed about performing well without support as dumping JVR means dressing Holland or Michalek. It isn't good enough anyway so why hurry.

Stand pat, get a better pick and potentially get that defenseman we need WITHOUT losing a forward. Worse case we are in the playoff race then it won't be hard to move Corrado and a 2nd and 3rd for a rental like Wideman.

Cant keep all our forwards....eventually there wont be enough cap or ice time.

No one is trading for Corrado. No one.

Corrado and Rychel for Ryan Murphy?

I think I got bingo's interest! Probably why he's not here right now, he's off discussing the potential trade with Carolina's GM!

I know, right. Imagine how much better they'd be if they still had Hall (who btw is apparently allowed to perpetrate vicious but clean blindside hits on Canucks, unlike Kadri)

they wouldnt be making any rash decisions. Im sure these are things they already thought about. If the Leafs are close to playoff in Feb, Lou will make moves to help the team. Babs will ensure that.
A forward roster player and/or top marlie prospect will be moved.
