Not sure what you are into kind sir, but i will just say that id appreciate if you would just go ahead and keep it to yourself. That would be great, and thanks.

I agree, but that argument doesn't fly against some of toughest best teams in the league. They need more center help, (Stastny, Carter), more size in the top 9, and more character throughout. That will go a long way.

stastny is no bigger than bozak

carter would be nice... nicer than nash imo

The negatives have far outweighed the positives.
Focusing on anything else...is just fools gold until it has some concrete results.
I only blame Burke for his stubborness and garbage FA signings.
I blame the Leafs organization for acceptance of mediocrity.

If you weren't such an old geezer, I'd start to think you were the Dark Lord himself....guess it was bound to happen, someone would take his place and even use the same quotes.

I would rather Nash

It's just that our needs are greater at centre.

Personally I think tha price for Carter would actually be decent if we can get a 1st off another team for Grabs, and make that and a 2nd the starting point for a deal.

1st
2nd
Connolly
D'amigo


If they want Kadri they'd need to take Komisarek and ditch the 2nd

i didnt say he would, i said he could

thing is.. you dump off every prospect that shows positive signs for the future, as the leafs always have, you will never end up with a star

my god, the kid is on pace for 30 points as a rookie.. thats not something to be ignored.

you have to stand by the kids sometimes.. thats why the leafs never win.. because they flat out refuse to do that. you are suggesting the leafs repeat the same approach they always have, trade for more immediate help, and then expect different results.

- Dozzer

Of course. I'm completely on board with not shipping this kid anywhere. I'd much rather keep him to see what he turns into.....if it were coffee or Leetch like.....than HELL YES...all the better.
He is by far the best asset we have as a prospect.
But lets not compare him to anyone.....hopefully in 5 years, prospect will be compared to Gardiner.....in a positive way of course.

I can't take Peanut seriously, I mean his avatar is Kadri....with a moustache. Kadri can't even grow facial hair. Obvious fabrication!

A swap like Connolly for Malone and a 2nd would be more feasible, IMO.

A 1st and 2nd? No way Jose!!!
No one is taking Connolly....the jackets want to rebuild not take on crap.

I could see Schenn, D'amigo, and Kadri for carter....maybe less.

I'd rather see him on the 3rd line and parked in front of the net on the PP than Connolly.

Pffft we need to approach that with hesitation. assume we don't NEED a carter even though we do.

CBJ will have a tough time getting a taker for Carter's contract, so if they are serious about moving him, it'll have to be at a discount as there simply aren't that many takers

F@ck ya!
The fact that teams are asking for Gardiner over Schenn is extremely telling.
Schenn is easily replaceable...Gardiner doesn't seem to be.

Im sure if Keith Aulie or Holzer can replace Schenn, then Blacker can replace Gardiner.
