What the (frank)'s wrong with that offer?
- Flyfreaky


not a whole lot value wise. i don't think it fits what the leafs need now. briere isn't the type of #1 center that's going to win them a cup, and it's definitely not worth taking a step down on the blueline.

leafs need a futures deal if they were to trade phaneuf. a high pick and a blue chipper, or an already established young top 6 forward and prospect/decent pick.

well, Briere's old, small, and not very good anymore... so there's that, and we're not even saving cap

RNH is overrated??
RNH is 19yrs old 1st overall drafted player coming off an 18goal 52pts (in 62 game season) as an 18yr old!!!!!

BUST!!!!

- Cooshie


being drafted first overall doesn't automatically qualify stud status.

i didn't say he was a (frank)ing bust, i said i think he's overrated. i've seen alot of edmonton fans agree with that assessment to.

Reading is fundamental. A player not thought to be available. Iginla has been rumored to be available the past two years. And that's a crappy deal. A 1st and a 2nd? Better keep adding to that.

Yea the value keeps going up when he says he will only lift his No trade clause for 4 teams.

How about Eberle, Petry, and a 214 first round pick for JVR then?

- LeafsNation91


Sure, you can have our 214 draft pick. The 2014 one is off limits though.

Might actually be ok with Eberle and Petry we need a power forward so bad. Still very steep and you only gave up Schenn for him.

Eklund: Stay Tuned. Rumors of a Major Deal Brewing..
- Eklund


I'm sorry and maybe I'm out of line so I apologize but this is a rumor site yet you don't seem to want to tell us what the rumor is. You obviously already know so at least tell us what you have. Why wait?

Its all about the tease. I do the same thing to the people i've been intimate with. I wait a day or two and then call them, "I may have aids, i should have the results in 6 months." I really like to keep them guessing.

you can get over the drafted first overall hype whenever you want.

2 goals, -6. he's soft, and overrated. i think he's to timid for the nhl.

- joel878


Granted he looks like a 12 year old, but he has talent. He needs to put on some muscle thats all.
