I like Duchene more & he's probably the most attainable
- Atreides

He is the most attainable... but I am not offering much more than Rielly and Bozak.

Absolutely.

I don't think you get Edmonton to bite on a Nuge deal and I have no interest in Hall at the price he would command.

I would absoluely offer up Rielly for RNH. I would probably stop short of Rielly + Kadri, but I would definitely do Rielly + Bozak and if Edmonton wanted our 1st also, I would still consider it. ... I don't think the Leafs could accommodate the salary difference though.

wtf

Not good enough. Need to get someone with the same talent as phil. That works harder
- Lee Denault

So... Ovechkin?

Because honestly Phil Kessel is easliy one of the most skilled players in the league. Easily.

So he's not a leader. Big deal. Find someone who is. The Canadian media has been doing this garbage to Joe Thornton for a decade. You don't listen to the media when it comes to players like this. They're idiots.

In any Phil Kessel trade you will not receive anything as good as Phil Kessel.

wtf

You didn't know that Rielly was a complete bust? He's already 20, FFS!

Sophomore slump be damned, kid stinks

wtf
- iTOLDu

I don't think I make that deal if I'm Edmonton, but that would be a great trade for the Leafs.

wtf

RNH is more valuable than you think.

4 years?! Nonsense! According to my brother-in-law a 20 year is what he is. There's no developing left. It's sink or swim so all kids should be ready within 1 year of being drafted. All.

Would hate to be drafted by your brother

Finally, somebody in the MSM who gets it...

- BINGO!

Phil just needs to care more often, doesn't have to lead, just try hard every night...

Me too. Guy tells me Nylander can't develop anymore so he should be on the Leafs.

Apprently a drafted player needs to play right away. It seems to be a thing for a lot of leaf fans though. No development but when the player sucks at 20 or 21 they are a bust!

Thank goodness Shanahan is a believer in the red Wings model of player development

Ya, cause Detroit making guys ride bus for 3 years has really hurt their player development...

Yeah, but that doesn't really happen for anyone.

The first comment sounds like someone from on here summarizing all of our collective posts over the last couple days. Posts from the guys who don't completely blame Phil
for everything.

They get put on a different level...like it can't be replicated.

Sadly, it really is. There's a few good ones, but they're mostly obscured by the rest of the garbage...
