Crazy prediction here, Colborne recovers successfully from wrist surgery and makes the Leafs right out of camp.
- yea-ok-buddy


I actually wouldn't put it past him.

With the way he exploded out onto the scene at the start of last season. I was worried when he declined suddenly. Knowing now that it was a wrist injury explains a lot.

I find his character and his determination to fill out his frame and become a power forward admirable.

I would even say that he could make the Leafs roster out of camp before Kadri

That'd be good news. I don't think him recovering for camp is an issue, it's more to do with adding weight and improving is speed (has already).

You could be right and he makes it to the 3rd line. I hope it happens, because before he got hurt, he looked OK with the big team.

He wasn't too bad on his call up. (I think that is where injury came from).

My prediction for Nash:

NYR: Gaborik, Dubinsky and a 1st & 2nd

or

SJ: Marleau, Havlat, Greiss, a 1st

- AngryWhiteMale


That is a huge overpayment for New York. SJ is closer.

Would be nice to go into next season with Kadri, Frattin, Colborne, and Holzer instead of LACK.

Considering how Gabo floundered in the playoffs, I think he's disposable. Plus even though he was injured he's nowhere near physical enough.

Dubi can go now that Krieder has a spot earned along with Hagelin, and Callahan's asserted himself

They wouldn't have to give up a young Dman either so it's a decent deal for them

We can make Kadri, Frattin, and Colborne a line, and call it the KFC line.

Lol it isn't like Nash is a proven playoff forward himself.
I wouldn't make that trade if I was New York.

I was thinking Kadri Bozak Frattin but I couldn't possibly argue with the "KFC" idea, genius.

I'm going to say this just once, none of us refs banned UG, this was done internally for reasons they explained to the mods and I won't reveal it because I want people to move on, there is so much else to talk about other than one poster to the site, it stays with the refs.

Are refs not the only ones with banhammers? Can commissioners ban too? Was it Capt EO or EK???
