The bolded point doesn't really say too much. You have a proven commodity vs 2 unproven commodities.

Likewise, if you were detroit and I offer Daigle (1st overall) for Datsyuk (7th rounder), would that really be fair?

- mfreedman


but this is Schenn's 4th year in the league and is only 22. Kadri is even younger. My point being - would you trade 2 1st round picks for Nash?

Burke traded two unknown 1st round picks for Kessel.

Gleason Signs A Four Year Extension in Carolina. Big D-Man off Market?


Why the (frank) would he do that....

- Fruitcakenipple


He wants to mentor Luke Schenn...

But seriously, this is great. It increases the value of defensemen at the deadline and that's going to be our biggest bargaining chip.

Personally I don't think we need nash or his salary, so no I wouldn't do it..

But then again I am not Schenn's biggest fan (like Aulie better for that position). Kadri seems like he could be a valuable piece, so I would rather not trad him unless it fills a 1st line centre role.

Works for me, but dont think there's any chance either team does that.

Stastny still has value and I don't think they'd eat Komi's salary to get a pending UFA in grabo

- mfreedman


well...you DID ask for a fake trade

Komi might actually have a chance of being traded now..

And the JVR for Schenn rumors are going to come back soon.

do not want Nash he is over rated and over paid....
- hightide


no he isn't and no he isn't

30+ goals every year playing with nobody. He's exactly as advertised and paid accordingly.

Wrong... the guy has been reporting rumors for about a year and a half and has reported a lot that came true before ANYONE.

Bob knew it was Colborne and a pick for Kaberle 5 days before it happened.

Hater just jelly.

i think that deal hurts the leafs now, and in the future. the only area where it makes any sense is the cap. i think one of the strengths of toronto is their depth, both at forward and on D, and making that move robs them of that depth. no doubt that nash is a great player, but this move basically gives the leafs a lot of talent on the wing, but by trading away 2 of your best centers, you now have nobody to pass them the puck. connolly is a good player, but you can't depend on him because of his pretty regular trips to the DL. bozak shows signs of being a solid player, but he also shows a lot of signs of not being able to cut it in a top six role, he's just too inconsistent. colborne is obviously going to be a great player, but is he ready to assume a top six role in the NHL right now, probably not. I think this would be a terrible move for the leafs. it doesn't help them now, and it cripples them moving forward.

I mentioned that a while ago when the offer was apparently nash + brassard for schenn, kadri + Grabbo. I'd do that if I could keep brassard and flip Nash and Komi for Staal.

He's Philly bound??? Ima thinking they wanted a commitment before giving up something sweet for him. JVR? Schenn?

Anybody have an opinion?

no way the AVS trade Peter, Marian, or Anton let alone Paul Stastny for a pending UFA and a over paid defensive liability.
I have no issues with the AVS trading Stastny, but that would be a steal for Burke

sorry....was asked to post a "fake" rumor...seemed inline with the request

yes - he's the AVS highest paid player and the owner is a cheap Ba@#$#$.

they gave up a 1st and 2nd round pick this summer for Varlamov - i think they are trying to back pedal and somehow regain a 1st rounder back IMHO

Stasny to Columbus for their First?

I doubt Philly would be willing to pay 4 mill for him... He's staying.
