I like Nashville being the middle man for letestu trade. Why didn't Edmonton work directly with the jackets?

So if Pleks plays all 18 remaining games with the Leafs this season he'll be at 999 for his career.

Would be kind of nice if he signed with the Habs next year to suit up for 1000.

If the rangers get a decent return for McDonaugh I'd consider them to have done pretty well this deadline.

Lou: Hey Shanny, I've got Bergevin on the phone - Plekanek deal is done - just need your go ahead.

Shanny: Tell he we need him to retain 50% of the slary or we can't do the deal.

Lou: I've crunched the numbers - we don't need them to retain.

Shanny: I know - but let's not pass up the chance to screw the Habs.

Lou chuckles, takes phone off mutes:

Lou: Marc, I'm going to need you to retain 50%

Marc: I like rainbows!

How much do they really have to retain with less than a quarter of a season left?
Less than 700 thou?

I think if he goes to the Hall of Fame, he will be enshrined in a Leafs jersey.













Yes, I am joking - HHOF does not work the same as Cooperstown.

Leafs should try to get JVR and Bozak signed. They can be useful, for this year and next, then deal their contracts, if you need cap space. JVR: $6M x 5. Bozak: $3M X 3. The Leafs can either make a deal with Nylander for 7 years, or bridge him and pay him less for 3. Marner and Matthews will get their payday a year from now, so the ability to keep and use JVR and Bozak for another year, then move the assets if they can't afford them any longer.


Another item. There must be another shoe to drop, with the Leafs holding on to 2 or 3 professional contract spots open. Maybe a defenseman and a salary dump to make it work. In Lou we trust. I don't see him grabbing Plekanec from the Habs, if they don't intend on upgrading their back end. Having centre depth and a stronger defense, make them quasi contenders.

you think JVR is gonna leave a million year on the table plus the 14 million he's gonna get for another 2 years if he signs elsewhere?

Pleks give us an option of a faceoff guy that can play defense for those times when we're trying to defend those late leads and have a defensive faceoff
- burn


Trade for hjalmarsson and the puck will be in the neutral zone off those faceoff wins.
