What assets? A 2nd round pick? Do you think we could get a #1 goalie with that 2nd round pick? I'm not saying that the 2nd rounder for Bolland made sense, or the huge run around to get our own 2nd round pick a few years ago made sense....but I think it was a solid hockey deal.

I know, but look at the earlier trades...

Underperforming Beauchemin for Lupul and Gardiner
Spare parts for Phaneuf
Lebda for Franson

Under Burke, Leafs made a lot of big one sided trades.

Best trade Nonis has made since, IMO is the Franson trade... And it just so happens to be after it became clear that he's not "the guy" anymore.

It's kind of funny that the deals you cite as Burkes, Nonis had a hand in.

19G 45 pts for $1M.

Significantly better numbers than Santorelli on similar role.

Not sure how that sucks. Sucked so bad he earned $3M + per deal

- Big_Lightnin

Soft add baby poop.

I'd take Santo over him everyday

And by "had a hand in" you mean was the architect off, almost fully.

Nonis handled the trades for Burke. That was his job.

Nonis drafted Patrick White and Fred Gauthier. Your argument is invalid.

And Burke went out and traded for Paradis and Ashton, the two crap picks of their drafts

Gauthier is fine. Keep ripping him the way you did Colborne. I'm sure you'll get this one right.

What is everyone's honest opinion of Winnik's trade value as the deadline creeps closer?

- mykokes

Colborne is super good. I mean, he had a hot streak at the start of the season so he is great. Not like that isn't his entire MO since being drafted! Nope, all consistency here! It's not like he disappears for 20 games at a time at every level he plays at.
BINGO!

And yet, since Burke left... None of those types of deals.

Isn't that in the least bit telling?


I'm not saying Nonis didn't do anything good on those deals, I'm just saying he doesn't seem like the type of guy who can push back on demands very well.

Shanny being here might be all he needs though. Just like a car salesman who really wants to give you a good deal, but can't because his manager is a Richard who won't let him.

He has terrible hands. He should have 35 goals playing in the Q.
