getzlaf is truthfully the exact player the leafs need between lupul and kessel.

trade mac - toss kadri on the 2nd line.

whammy.

- big_dion

100%

I really don't see a Getzlaf trade happening but what the heck do I know. But he is absolutely the exact player the leafs need. Marleau is just an older, more expensive and passing his prime version kessel....except Kessel is a better passer.

i dont think they need any vet goalie to teach them anything, thats what goalie coaches and alumni are for.

what i think our goalies need is a better defensive system, and stronger 2 way play from the forwards.

ive seen reimer make some of the most amazing saves, i think hes got the skills, he just needs time and the coaching staff to grind those D men to keep shots to the outside.

And no shots on the glove side........or blocker.

Needing "something" doesn't mean you literally just trade for "something". The leafs need a playmaker...Marleau is not that, not one bit.

If they want to trade MacA and Kulemin and put him on Grabo's wing...ok, that works. But the "need' is for someone to be between Kessel and Lupul that passes and can score. And that's why everyone focuses on Getzlaf.

- Juice

Good luck getting getzlaf! And leafs as I have been saying they need someone and he is on the tradeblock (marleau)

Crappy Dmen will have that affect.
I love how everything gets blamed on Wilson...hilarious.

- Fakepartofme


i dont fully blame wilson but he did not have the d-corps he needed to implement the systems he was trying.

while not his fault its his job as coach to adjust the game plan to suit the skill sets of his players

he didnt do that.

Yeah I don't see it from Ana perspective. Isn't the idea to trade Ryan and lock up Perry and Getzlaf?

weak d and a run and gun system still doesn't change the fact that no Leaf goalie has been able to stop the puck with any consistency since belfour.
grant fuhr had a terrible goals against and save percentage, but was renown for making a big save. I'd love to see a 'big save' once in a while instead of the usual deflating beer league level goals which go in game after game.
Our goaltending has been atrocious, an absolute joke for far too long, regardless of our coaching, system or defense.

its called coaching.

you know, athletes adjust..

3 seasons ago Bautista wasnt crushing the ball.

coaches looked at his swing, the sped up his swing by starting early...he crushed more homers than anyone since.

why? because he was coached, and adjusted part of his game to get better.

kind of like how players (kadri) are training all summer with Gary Roberts, to get better, bigger, stronger, faster.

but dont worry, we know you dont understand the concepts so dont sweat over it.

He's one of those trolls who aren't trolling, he's "distributing facts" and never trolls.

For Breaking Bad, you really need to watch it in order from the start. I think what I love about the show is watching the insane personality changes over time with all of the main characters.

Lol oh yeah that sounds about right...he is always right according to his posts. I said I wouldn't be surprised if the Bs trade Lucic yesterday, and he immediately was like you're an idiot, you'd trade Lucic? I was like no I said it wouldn't surprise me if we did, not that I want to. Then he went on a tear about how every Bruins fan is happy I wasn't GM blah blah blah..

I don't think Getzlaf will happen, I'm just saying that's why the rumors are out there cause he's the perfect fit.

But again, needing "someone" is the only reason Marleau fits, it's because Marleau is a "someone"...but so am I, my mommy tells me so every day.

Marleau is hands down the 2nd worst "someone" the leafs could trade for, right after Gomez.

hard to tell.

time will tell.

all i know is, burke has done some glorious trades with Ana, and im sure they will be sketchy with any of them, or asking for more since we fleeced them with the gardiner/lupul trade.
