sorry who would you replace kadri with with kessel lupul and bozak clicking on the first line (have a better ppga then the sedins and burrows btw) and the way grabo kule and mac have started playing recently? wilson already stated hes not going to play a player in a role they shouldn't be in, and kadri isn't a 3rd liner. its unfortunate you had a leaf fan on your side for a bit but instead you act like an idiot so congrats

So Kadri isn't even better then Bozak?

I'm confused. By your logic, because you haven't heard any trade rumours involving Carl Gunnarsson, he isn't sought after by any other team?

Okay. Well, I haven't heard any Daniel Sedin trade rumours this year, either, so clearly then, outside of Vancouver, he's worthless.

"the likelihood of this trade not occurring exactly as is written is far greater than this trade happening"

Classic.

Prove me wrong than.... Show me one shred of evidence or anything that says that teams would love to have Gunnar on their team and that he is "sought after"

Or are you just "assuming" that he is sought after..

- MillerTime1130


Check mate MT. Well done.

BTW I dont think you understand how to use quotation marks.
Meh, maybe "you" do.

I guess I should have said good pure defensive players

That would have helped. Have you seen Hal's 5-3 lie down in the crease beached whale special?

REALLLLLLLLY???

Name any other "pure defensive" player that is as low as Schenn's level?

- MillerTime1130


defensive defenseman are expected to struggle in their first few years, cause NHL players play at a higher calibre then junior players do. not just that, but look who their goalie was and how bad his team was when he came into the NHL and you can justify the - ratings. now you're seeing what he is capable of, though he struggled at the beginning of the year hes playing a much better game now

He is so "shut-down" that his seasons in the NHL have been -12, -7, 2, and 10 in the +/- category...
- MillerTime1130


interesting. Almost as if he's developing isn't it?

Meyer's being an offensive D-man just lighting it up with whopping 11 pts and -9

Much better than Schenn's 15 pts and +10

Given the option, and all things being equal, if I had a chance to steal one Leaf Dman for the Sens, Gunnarson is probably the guy I'd take. Just saying.

Yes 24 points in 70 games(combined seasons) played in the NHL proves adam is better... while kadri has played 49 nhl games(combined seasons) and has 18 pts.

AHL this season he has 23 pts in 24 games with the marlies

And so what at what luke adam acheived in the ahl. Im pretty sure Mckegg, brad ross, matt frattin all ripped with stats above or as just the same as what luke adam had.... doesnt mean they are nhl ready or good enough.

- Mapleleafs_91


WAHOOOO

Paul Szczechura and Zach Kassian have 24 and 22 points each in 28 games a piece.. does that mean they are both at the level ceiling as Kadri a 7th overall pick??

Kadri and Yashin are about to be in the same boat...
- MillerTime1130



what playing in the KHL and still getting $$$ from an NHL team?

I think your little tit for tat adams vs kadri is just foolist.

they are both young and have potential to excellent players.


wait 5 years then let's talk who's the better player.

Becuase Kadri is the greatest and could turn that line into the greatest line since the 87 Canada Cup Mario Wayne line.

Oh wow.. you are that dumb?

Myers has only played in 32 games.. Gunnar has in all 52

Shall we look at years past?

2011: Myers 80 games - 37 points
Gunnar 68 games - 20 points

no one has said kadri is the greatest. he's to small right now to play center, they tried him out as center but got over worked down low and was a liability, thats why they moved him to the wing. once he bulks up in the summer, will be between him and colborne to try and win that job

If Luke Adam were a Leafs prospect you'd be telling everyone how awesome he is.

He's 6'2, 200+ lbs and plays center. 21 yrs old. Has 10 Goals in the NHL this season as a rookie.

sound like anything the Leafs could use?
