Burke could EASILY have Schneider for about half of that!

That's a bit of a stretch. Certainly not half. It would be the 5th overall plus.

Pass it to Bulis‏@passittobulis

Hey @strombone1, are you gonna watch the draft on Friday or have you signed up


That would be hilarious to have Stombone (whomever he is) to analyze every pick at the draft

Very good read by Lebrun

Interesting indeed, thanks!

"... I don’t think the Leafs would be willing to move a high-level asset to Vancouver in exchange. My sense is that Toronto will keep tabs on the Luongo situation, but is not in desperation mode whatsoever to get something done. Not with 10 years left on Luongo’s contract. If it’s a deal that make sense, I think the Leafs will do it. But they won’t overpay.

This is EXACTLY what Leafs fans have been saying all along.

I really doubt Gillis deals Schneider to TO . There is not enough that comes back . If Gillis hated the thought of seeing LU every week on HNIC ,can you imagine seeing the goalie of the future there week after week?

Interesting indeed, thanks!

Can't say I disagree with too much that he says. Will the Ultra Boy nickname stick?

Burke driving the price down even more

Luongo for a half eaten cheeseburger?

- Fosco

I think the 5th would likely be enough. IF there is a "+," it would be minimal.

So yes, about half because the 2012 2nd (35th) and 2013 1st (?) doesn't need to be included.

Hey, no one here is expecting Burke to over pay, only that Luongo is worth 2 firsts and a second to Toronto.

Just do it right and get the #1 ... Best thing that could happen for this Franchise

If you read between the lines, he is saying 1st, Gardiner and Schenn

If you're talking about pulling a CLS for the upcoming season you might be right. Draft Mackinnon. Get your franchise player and you're on your way. That said, EDM will probably somehow be drawn for the 1st overall pick, even if TO ends up in last place.

stupid edmonton ... sucking and getting #1, and then not sucking the worst and still getting #1 ... The will probably end up 26th and win the lottery to get #1 again... Draft a 5th forward

I think every time he breaks a stick this year Bieksa should beat him with both ends of it.

They might well become the 1st team ever to have a top 6 entirely made up of #1 picks. But they'll still probably miss the playoffs due to lack of defense and/or a #1 goalie.

That is a banable statement. You have to say it in the Hypothetical sense to avoid ban.

I think these "rumors" have been out there for over a week now. The pundits don't seem to believe there is a fit there or, if there is, a contract would have to be coming back. None of their contracts are that bad, save Brian Campbell, but as their #1 Dman I doubt he'd be in the mix.

Given the assets they have in the system, this would be the team I'd like to see us trade Lu to.

Gillis is on the 1040 at 10.45 ,I think Lu always was in the FLA mix. He spent his summer there again besides his trip to Cabo. That's why it is useless to get in these TOR debates.

I will be honest...the mighty Canucks wanting Gardiner, Schenn etc... gives me a boner ....
