Every time I hear about leaked howson trade requests all I can think of is trying to trade with idiots in sim league sites. Congrats howson, thats quite the comparison. Sorry cbus fans. The bet return will come after Howson gets canned, he better not last till the beginning of reg. Season or I will be pissed for you.

But if he stands pat and comes away with half of the new york rangers he will look like a genius.

The brain power it must of took to think up this beaut is hard to fathom

Oh come now I was trying to lighten the mood from this Nash talk. If Nash wants to be moved he should expand his team list, and If Howson expects to move him It will be for no more than 1 top 6 winger, 1 top four defensemen, and a good (not great) prospect. And if they don't like it, much like the Luongo in Vancouver situation, they can bloody well keep him

Give it up already. The Leafs aren't giving you anything. Bernier will be a backup for the rest of his career. Look at his numbers.

Leafs don't need help in net.

krejci would be toronto's best center. but that's not saying much lol.

9 times out of 10, I would take Grabo.

ya, those poor fans, all 50 of them

if i was ownership I would of fired Howson at the end of last season
give the new GM a clean slate for the draft and free agency

I love when Wing fans call us out. Because I was there 3,4 years ago when there was a good chunk of jacket fans in the JOE.

Really? I would consider giving my left nut right now to get us an upgrade in goal. The right one has better swimmers anyway....

I'd rather not lose any roster players other than Dubinsky. I like him, but he's too damn streaky. I have faith Sather will get this done and he'll screw the Blue Jackets over worse than he did to the Habs.
- GOODPLAYA20

Yeah, no problems losing Dubinsky, hopefully Howson would "accept" him in any deal.

- wingz4life

Reimer will regain his 2010-2011 game shape. With our defense, even if he's only half as good, it gives us a real shot at winning.

I really hope no one thinks like you do, period.

The leafs have nothing the kings need anyways. I guess I can't have a conversation with you without you jumping down my throat. No. Your right though, the leafs are good in goal. Good luck with that.

- wingz4life

Yeah I'm a Leafs fan and majorly confused by this. Either we need an upgrade in goal or a couple of years of proving that a Randy Carlyle defense-first strategy will protect the goalie enough, such as with Smith in PHX...

its a long summer
- wingz4life

Indeed, worst part of summer...Golf on Tv. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I'm going to go with Ek on this one. Did you notice in the "e-mail exchange", the source refers to Howson as "Hows". Gotta be an insider.

I have lots of faith in Reimer. He'll surprise a lot of people this year. Even more so in a defensive oriented system.

Low blow with the fan count, the jackets have never given the fans a reason to come out.. The buckeyes seem to have a decent following.

What about Bergeron? Same deal gets him instead

If all goes well, he won't have a choice.

He's not a first line C. I believe we'll get one via Free agency next summer.

aww someones mad because i just made his post look absolutely foolish. go on, lets hear your idea of a fair trade for luongo. we already know vantel's...

CLOWE + HAVLAT FOR LUONGO + BOOTH

I see your on your second ID . How long you get banned for this time . Isn't it against the CoC to make another profile? I guess trolls will be trolls .

I wouldn't go that far. I think that at least Kessel, Lupul, Kulemin, JVR, Gardiner, Gunnarson would find a home on your roster. Whether you would want to give up what Burkie would ask given their value to a young, raw franchise is another thing...

On the other hand, given the statement "need", then I guess winning the cup backs you up reasonably well....
