dump bozak. trade for say, pageau. a more defensive minded 3C. hopefully net a better pick the switcharoo.

i'm not sure moore is replaceable internally. we have nothing in the system at C. won't cost much to trade for a different 4C.

jvr, just to valuable to let walk imo. bring in a RHD prospect in a pick.

Dangle suggested a Kap, Komagod, Leivo 4th line and I kind of like it.

Upon further reflection, I don't really see the point in selling off Moore, unless you need to dump someone w.r.t. the 50 contracts.

You won't get more than a bucket of spit for him, and you won't save any money on the cap. So why jettison him?

i don't think he's babcock's guy. that's all.

no point in keeping him if we trade for say, letestu.

How can anybody stand Dangle?

I turn the channel before he even says a word, annoying (frank)er

i dont mind him.. hes just a typical fanboy from southern ontario. SN hasnt really promoted him to anything important and he lives off mostly his podcast, which i listen to. I applaud him for trying to live off an identity but i think hes finding out it takes work. Dart Guy was lucky and was given a TSN radio show.

Which speaks volumes about how far their clout in the Canadian sports marketplace has fallen... (on top of the Blundell / Shapiro failures)

Minnesota is currently in the playoffs, but if they slip down the stretch I would love the leafs to pick up Staal and ship off bozak.
Solves our 3C next year and his salary would be less then bozak.

Still room for Tavares next year with that contract.

Is he related to Lt. James Dangle?

yeah i dont really follow much of that anymore... TSN i always prefer a little more over SN when it comes to hockey.

I like this man's idea...Stall would be a great 2-3 C for Leafs

My propsal:

I'd give up Carrick + Leivo + Bozak + 2018 2nd

for Staal + camp dump - maybe Ennis + 2018 3rd (MIN has 3 3rd's in 2018)

MIN saves a lot of cap space going forward - & yes Leafs can afford this short term

Even throw in Soshnikov as well

I get what you're saying.. and kinda agree - HOWEVER - Dangle fills a void in the GTA sports news market.. and he's a hell of an improvement over having caustic useless old f__s like Berger and Simmons.

I take Dangle any day over those clowns.

I don't think JVR weakens us really. He's not even on our top two lines. Move Kap up to the 3rd line with Brown and get a stronger 3C. We add a solid dman and a 3C center replacing JVR and Bozak, I don't think that really weakens us much at all and might well spark the PP more too.

Hyman - Matthews - Nylander
Marleau - Kadri - Marner
Kap - ??? - Brown
Komarov - Moore - Martin/Goat/???

Not a huge change but that 3rd line if we get a decent 3C would be fast, and hard to play against.

How bout this:

Detroit
Levio
Bozak
San Jose 2nd 2018
Leafs 1st 2018 (Swap)

Toronto
M. Green
Detroit 1st 2018 (Swap)

Detroit gains much needed draft pics and NHL ready players

Toronto gains much needed RHD and higher 1st 2018

Plausible

I still can't believe we traded David Clarkson....

we get a top 10 pick and the best player in the deal, so it works out ok for us

Oh poop right, 1st swaps.

What would Chris Tanev cost and what would the Leafs be willing to give up? Can a deal be reached because he (in my eyes) is great and would fit perfectly.

how about no?
- Tumbleweed

I'd actually do this in a heartbeat if I was Toronto.
