Franson doesn't want to be in Toronto anymore. He wants out. So better to trade him now rather than pay the big price of losing him for nothing on July 1st.
- Jammerz04

Sure he does,. It's just the Leafs won't give him the nutty contract he wants.

Well, we have Whitefish Mountain and Lake, Flathead Lake and Glacier National Park to name a few spots. I've never been to "Boyle" but it sure "sounds" nice.
- MontanaMan

Yaaaaa... Lake Louise kicks the pants off of whitefish

but what did they give up for Lindback ?
- aries1976

different deal lindback was a rfa not a ufa

Franson is pretty much the only point producing right handed d-man available.
multiple teams are interested, so the lightning are gonna have to pony up something more than just a 2nd rd pick to get him. I wonder if the lightning would part with Connolly and a pick?
- GardinerExpress

Mike Green?

No team in the nhl will give him that lol let's be reasonable he'll get 5.5 in free agency. He actually wants to stay here
- leafguy24

But he will get the same contact as niskanin

Sure he does,. It's just the Leafs won't give him the nutty contract he wants.
- RogerRoeper

aka his choice to leave

the guys is barely in his teens, i'm sure he'll wise up when he gets older

Ek, get the hell out of bed.

There are rumours out there to be found or simply made up for your adoring fans.

A 2nd?

I don't think it's Montreal year, so I don't want Bergevin to trade top picks and prospects for pure rentals, but I think he will make a few moves.

You should trade for somebody with term. I wouldn't move a 2nd in this draft for a pure rental unless I felt my team had a really good chance for the Cup. I guess the Habs have Price which helps even things out but I'm still not sold on the rest of the team.

They do have two 2nd round pick in 2016 (because of the Gorges trade), so maybe he moves one of them. They also have a lot of small prospects. I think one or two could go.

Wish they would move Emelin and bring up Tinordi, but it won't happen.

This guy is so full of crap..havent seen a single rumor actually come true

Bailey, Visnovsky, Reinhart, Strait and Johnson for Kessel, Phaneuf, Reimer and Leafs retain 30% of salary. Leafs play Johnson as much as possible which is guaranteed loss and get top 5 pick and have a future top 2 defenceman in Reinhart and get rid of problem childs in Kessel and Phaneuf . Isles make run at cup.

Take Clarkson too and send us Yashin's buyout and it is a deal.

I'd trade CooCoo for Cocoa Puffs for Franson. Coo Coo has glass shoulders.

but what did they give up for Lindback ?
- aries1976

Most of those picks were acquired via deadline deals for Kubina and Dom Moore among others

Yaaaaa... Lake Louise kicks the pants off of whitefish
- DarcyTucker16

Glacier national park is pretty sweet though.


But yea, Lake Louise and Moraine lake are awesome.


(frank) I miss the rockies.
