Trade Bozak at the deadline, move Marner to center. He already plays two-way hockey, it's just a matter of getting him stronger physically and winning face-offs. If Kadri could do it, Marner can do it. Nylander probably could too.
As for the 4th line center role, there are dozens of 4th line centers every year. I could see the Leafs acquiring Derek McKenzie from Florida if they are out of it by the deadline. I don't want them to, but that's their style of move in recent years.
Or, JVR, Bozak and Polak for Bennett, Backlund and Stone. Two more options at center if you do something like that. |

Why would Calgary trade Backlund? |

welcome back you hairy tit
i would rather keep players than trade for futures. depth will be huge in the playoffs. i like the idea of your flames trade though. something that helps the team now and later. |

Now why was it perfected by Mericans? Not enough African 'Canadian' athletes north of the border? Everyone knows white men can't jump!
On that, is that a common statement African 'Canadians', or are people with those origins still called African 'American' even if they're Canadian? |

Firstly, 'form slump' & Auston Matthews should never EVER be used in the same sentence!
Having 24 points halfway through the season is 'way off pace' for his career high 55?? Wtf? It's pretty close to being on pace or just a smidgen behind.
Tavares will be a Ranger, so who else will be available? Starts with T & rhymes with Horton! Rumour has it, his beard has a $1m cap hit! - Aussiepenguin
Thanks to Kadri we already acquired part of his beard. It's being cloned as we speak.
Once the beard forms into a full human clone of Thornton, Lou will promptly order the beard to be shaved off and he will lose all hockey skill.
Like what happened to Komarov. You know, except his mustache wasn't cloned as far as I know. Pretty sure he's the original... Or is he? |

Marner is way better at center. Already back checks and passes very well. |

I've never heard anyone referred to as African Canadian.
Since we're part of North America, African American still works for us. Unlike many 'Muricans, we Canadians realize there are actually three countries located in North America.
It does bring up a good question though. What is the politic term for people of African descent that live in Europe, Asia, or places like the Philippines, Australia, etc? African European just doesn't have the same ring. Although I kinda like the sound of African Aussie. |

He's a pending UFA, Bozak is better at faceoffs, scores a bit more points and Burke. They get to dump Stone's salary too. Chemistry with JVR who helps their weak PP and JVR might resign there too with Bozak because Burke. |

You wanna know what I think?
Too bad.
Komarov sucks. That's what I think. And I hope he plays 24 minutes tonight and gets a hat trick. And when he does, he'll still suck. |

They're not going to get past the Bruins and even if they do, they definitely won't get past Tampa Bay. Keep players so they can win 1 round? Nah. Better off trading the pending UFAs and keep adding pieces to the puzzle than lie to themselves and think they're ready for a run. |

The Burke factor makes it all possible.

i think letting the team grow and giving the kids a legit chance to at least win a round is good for growth amd experience. that said if the offer is good enough id consider trades. but it has to be good or just keep what you have and make a run. i think they have a shot at beating the bruins. tampa, its highly improbable. |

It really does. Even if they don't want to move Backlund, that's fine by me.
JVR and Polak for Bennett and Stone. Move Bozak to Pittsburgh for a 1st. |

I think they'd make a hell of a series against the Bruins. They are good but not Tampa good. They're beatable.
I'm somewhere in the middle. If the price is right, pull the trigger. If it's not, oh well, keep them all for the playoffs. |
