That 4 would be very scary. Thank God.


As for the sox, I can't get anymore excited for a team than I was for them LAST off season.

we know how that turned out.

And BOOM! There it is. This guy basically called them out for not doing what we just said. Also asked how come no trades have come even though AA said that's the route they'd go.

Well, considering this rumour has no basis whatsoever in reality, I heard the Columbus has to throw in a unicorn.

With Gleason coming off the market, you've gotta think that our d-men become more valuable.

The best line I've heard about defensemen at the trade deadline: they are like cigarettes in prison.

Funny things will start to happen this trade season with d-men... Just like they always do. The untradable, toxic Beauchemin fetched us a solid prospect and our current top scorer.

With names like Schenn (and even Komisarek) thrown out there, we could do better than the rumored Nash deal as it is.

Komi plus a 2nd and 3rd for Ryan Malone??? And i think GMS value 2nd and 3rd picks a lot and even salary i believe so its kinda believable considering tampa needs D... Maybe if you dont like it take out the 3rd and throw in like Scrivens or Rynnas.

Both players have no trade clauses, but I think that would be a straight up one for one deal.

It's just swapping bad contracts with comparable cap hits. TB would rather have a bad contract if they could get a d-man out of it. We'd rather have a bad contract who fills a need (if inadequately) up front.

I'd probably still hang on to Komi. In his final year as a rental, he might actually have some decent value. The closer he gets to the end of his deal, the less important his contract becomes to potential buyers.

Plus, he comes cheaper than his cap hit, which is a plus for some teams.

Never said either.

B Schenn is a big physical offensive center with top line potential. This is exactly what the Leafs need.

If they can get him and keep Kadri, excellent.

I'll defend Kadri toll the cows come home, but the main reason he has more NHL games is Schenn has been in the system on two very good teams with great depth at center, and Kadri's been on the Leafs.

B. Schenn is softer than Weirdoh's heart around well hung men.

That's true. I had to correct it.

But when weighed against Malone, I still think Komi's value will go up in the future as his contract nears its end and he can still provide a decent option for a team that wants some depth at D.

Malone is pretty much used up. With his contract, you're basically in a "run out the clock" scenario.

played with a separated shoulder in the biggest game of his life so far... not what I would call soft.

once he's filled out more, he'll be banging guys in the NHL too.

Given the Leafs goaltending situation this year, I think we can do away with this "we're so deep in goal" stuff. Keep every goalie prospect Burkie can get his hands on.
