Altho Boyle wasnt a prediction, it was a prescription...one which was shared by the Leafs multi Cup winning HOF management team

the bottom half of most teams are dime a dozen players. that's why they're bottom line players lol
- daeth

There is not a single team out there who has an indispensible bottom line or bottom pair player

great comeback, very 'mature'
when you're left without any argument, change the subject
- MaximusAurelius

i can't take you seriously if you're the nylander guy, sorry

look at the 2nd rounders from the hunter era. i wouldn't trade a single one of them for boyle. that's the type of player the leafs gave up for him.

15 mins a night is a lot for a 4th liner.

Dude. Relax. It's one 2nd round pick that's probably never going to make the NHL.
- Santo_44

Played with Drouin and Killorn a fair bit this season due to Stamkos injury. Wasn't playing 4th line.

I don't see the point of this trade.
Lou already said he would stay the course and not trade away picks for short term gain.
So now we trade a second rounder for a 32 year old rental.
I know we are weak at centre but why do this ? To make the playoffs to be swept by Washington or Pittsburgh?
- Rang

Except I think he'll resign with TO.

- lumlums

there's the odd rookie/youngster that gets sheltered minutes but they aren't true bottom pair players so that's cheating lol

Jordan Eberle.....It's time to #PackYourpoop and head to the nearest airport.



I wonder if Commie is joking

My Source told me that there has been some good dialogue regarding Eberle with the Islanders. #Insider

I'm super pissed off. We now only have 2 second rounders and no young guys on the team or coming up the pipeline.

Yep.

Post the ones who didn't.
- poohcrumbs

korshkov, grundstrom, bracco, dermott, matt finn, brad ross, kenny ryan, jesse blacker, jimmy hayes, kulemin. every 2nd round pick since 05. whole lot of no bodys on that list

I'll be shocked if Bozak & Kadri are both still leafs after Wednesday. One is going in a deal for a top 4 dman. I think that is the point of this trade. Lou isn't done.

not true, if they finish 2nd or 3rd they play the other team that finished 2nd or 3rd.

Don't think he is
- poohcrumbs

Yeah, afterwards he mentioned the Isles... that'd make sense.

Yes perhaps, but I don't think Uncle Leo or Boyle are dime a dozen players.

Let's watch him play before we throw him under the bus.

I think Boyle is going to make a lot of Leaf fans happy, maybe even make the 4th line scary for the other team. Last couple games they might have been our best line....

- B-Wforever

kadri isn't being traded and bozak wont get us a top 4 dman get over it.

I'm super pissed off. We now only have 2 second rounders and no young guys on the team or coming up the pipeline.
- poohcrumbs

can't have more than 2 second rounders anyway

much like nylander. can't have more than 2 good young players. should trade him

I'm super pissed off. We now only have 2 second rounders and no young guys on the team or coming up the pipeline.

(frank)ed up the rebuild...this is burke 2.0 now...

You don't move Kadri.

As far as untouchables go, Mitch/Matthews are top tier, and Kadri/Willie/Rielly are next level.

korshkov, grundstrom, bracco, dermott, matt finn, brad ross, kenny ryan, jesse blacker, jimmy hayes, kulemin. every 2nd round pick since 05. whole lot of no bodys on that list
- HealthyScratch6

So about 40 %?

For sure. It's disgusting

- poohcrumbs

well im pretty sure everyone on here probably had high hopes for matt finn and look how that turned out. To early to call on any of the new guys.

Yeah, afterwards he mentioned the Isles... that'd make sense.
- lumlums

Sure does

- B-Wforever

I doubt they trade Kadri, Bozak I could see...or maybe Bozak's more hurt then theyre letting on.
