Last time I played that many holes in a week, you're mom was in town!


- .HOHO.

I'm sure your wife appreciated my visits the week before. Got her nice and ready to not feel a thing in those 198 rounds!

Quite a coincidence what with my mom being in town!

Lebrun just tweeted that the Leafs are one of the 10 teams McDonagh would accept a trade too..

Weird that he would want to play for a team that has no shot at a Cup..

If McD does get traded to the Leafs Liljegren better not be part of the package going back to the Rangers.

Remember when we were talking about how cheating permeates through Eastern Europe and is looked upon differently than in NA?

Russian television crew was thrown out after trying to tape Czech practice.

Tampa= they should definitely be spending futures for this kind of move. Do they play him RHD, move Sergachev down or to right?

Wash= Not sure what they have left for futures for the next few seasons. He'd be a great fit for them though moving Djoos down.

Boston= Same issue as Tampa. Move him to RHD or Krug/Chara? Also not sure if they'd want to spend assets now.

If I was the Rangers' GM, I would do this deal in a heartbeat.

Of course, that's assuming I'm still a die-hard Leafs fan, and want to sabotage the Rangers to help the Leafs win the Stanley Cup.

I would go as far as to say that anything less than a Conference Finals appearance by the Caps will mean Trotz is for sure gone while MacLellan would be on an extremely tight leash.

I think Lou should approach McDonagh and say:

"Hey, remember what the Habs traded you for? Yea. That's how little they though of you. How about you join up with us so you can beat up on them 4/5 times a season?"

I doubt it. I heard there is about to be a worldwide shortage of leather leashes and whips after HOHO's "buddies" weekend.

tampa seems like a good fit.

washington might be the most desperate. burakaovsky, johansen, a couple 1sts and their goalie prospect is all the have. they'd blow their load on the trade...but they should be going all out for 2 more years than burn it down imo.

I was assuming MacLellan would be present for that event, of course.

McDonagh signs with capitals.

Plays lacklustre and doesn't look like old self.

Washington decides to walk away.

McDonagh is courted by, and subsequently signs contract with, new york rangers.

It's in the tea leaves.

I think him beating us in the conference finals 4 years ago was enough of a vengence.

You're right Scabby, Toronto needs to sweeten the deal.

Throw the San Jose 7th rounder in 2020 in as well.

I think it's a 1st in 2019 instead of those two picks. Maybe it's Holl instead of Carrick though.

With McDonaugh having a NTC. I would consider the deal won't include Dermot or lilegren

i think there's enough teams bidding that the NTC doesn't matter too much. The demand is there.

i think the rags will be right to ask for one of dermott/loljegren and we'll be right to walk away.

For McDonagh, I would think a Fehr, or fair deal would be Borgman, Leivo, Gauthier, a 2018 1st and a 2019 2nd rd pick.

Sure I fully expect them to ask but as you suggest I expect the Leafs to walk away if those two and Kapanen are involved. I think management likes them too much for the future.
