3rd

wouldn't be shocked to see the penguins make a few moves.
our first line of Neal-Malkin-Kunitz is deadly.

our trade deadline will be when we get Staal back and maybe crosby back for the playoffs.

could still see us make a move for someone like Hal Gill.

i dont see what the draw is for Sutton... he wasnt any good when the penguins played against him in the playoffs a few years ago... cant imagine how bad he is now... but i havent watched him so i wont draw conclusions.

#17 Toronto (25.9)
This is definitely the most "buyerish" I have ever had the Leafs over the past few seasons. There is little doubt they are looking big. They want a big players size-wise, but with limited Cap Space Burke will need to be creative. Been a long time since the post season as well.


then why are they in EVERY SINGLE RUMOR?



also you keep saying suter wont be traded and wont be a distraction, and yet Lou + zpar has said the same about parise but yet you keep bringing it up

He's a nice depth player.. adds size, grit, experience, humor and suspensions.

Add this to the formula: If they won or lost their last deadline transaction.

wouldn't mind him... but i dont think he could play our up tempo system. then again, i didn't think Gill could play it either and he did quite well.

"The higher the number the more a team is a seller. Teams above a 30 ranking I would consider definitive buyers."

I'm confused.....

and 1/3 of the league is selling to 2/3? those rosters will be overhauled

The Habs aren't "Potential Buyers" Ek. They're definite sellers. They gotta just dump all the old dead weight and try to put together a good young team. Although, know Gauthier, he'll probably do something really stupid like trade Subban to the Oilers for Horcoff or something.

The higher the number the more a team is a seller.

Teams above a 30 ranking I would consider definitive buyers.
Teams above 20 are potential buyers.
Teams below 10 are likely sellers

Teams with a negative number I would consider a definite seller.

- Eklund


LOL... maybe you should revisit your super-secret formula.

You said Higher number = more a team is a seller...

Then you go on to show that the higher the number the greater the likelihood that the team is a buyer.
