Matt Henderson: Are The Oilers Looking For Defensemen, Are The Leafs A Fit? Bob McKenzie reported that the Oilers may be open for business and looking to add to their defense. The Gardiner talk is also in full swing. Is there a match?

Hey, i wouldn't listen to anything Berger has to say. He's upper echelon douche in the Leafs hating Toronto media. Only being pipped by Simmons, and possibly Mr. Tennis Cox

Reimer + Phaneuf

Only thing is, we do not have good LW depth either.

How about:

Reimer + Phaneuf

for

Ference + Hemsky + 1st + Marcinin or something.

Hey, maybe Nonis would be willing to trade Grabovski to us!

Even us Leaf fans know that Berger is a bitter man with nothing better to do than make stuff up.

Why would we trade Perron? And Ference isn't be traded.

I can really only think of Hemsky who would be able to help out Toronto.

NOPE. I would think there is a bigger match with Washington. I think that Mike Green and Karl Alzner can be had for the right mix. that would be the only type of talent I would consider dealing Yakupov for. The tough thing would be to make the $$ balance out.

This isn't NHL 14............

The Oilers just got both Ference and Perron...they aren't going to ship them out 3 games into the season.

Why would we trade Yakupov for an Injury prone Green?

If you feel like being smart today, it would be a good time to leave this page and return only when there is a new blog. You know what happens when the Leaf's fans visit, we become the blog for "special" comments...

Why would we trade Yakupov at all? Unless it was for Weber, or even to a certain extent...Subban. My dream would be for Pietrangelo

Every once in a while, a flames fan will have intelligence and logic. It's something we can all celebrate!

There Just isn't any possibility for a trade here. The leafs have 2 needs and 2 needs only right now
1.) an upgrade for Bozak
2.) top pairing defenceman

Our trade chips, Gardiner, any center not named Kadri, Kulemin, Franson (only if a good defender is coming back) maybe Reimer, or solid yet no outstanding prospects.

The Oiler's big trade chip are skilled wingers, the last thing the leafs need!

Not being a homer either, there are lots of teams who would LOVE to grab one of Edmonton's young wingers, you could land a top paring guy no problem just not from Toronto.

I dont think it's being a homer. I think Howard Berger was acting more like a Homer. The fit isnt really there. Definitely not for Gardiner or a (never ever going to happen) Yakupov deal.

How? We need defense now, Klefbom is not the God most Oiler fans think he is. Marcinin will really never have a chance. We gain cap though.
