you pick arguably the 4 deepest teams at C in the league and that counts fore the other half?

And Chicago he'd be 2C. LA he'd be 1st line LW, or they'd move him to 2C and move Carter back to wing.
Same for San Jose.

why do you assume having RoR at 1C for a few years prevents Leafs from Drafting a C that eventually becomes 1C and RoR moves to 2C? which would be his ideal position

I don't, he's overpaid, overhyped, and thats it... People want him cause there's nothing else going on, I'm tired of settling for others leftovers... But lets take other teams then... He's certainly not playing ahead of Getz or Kesler, He's a 2nd in Arizona, He's 3rd behind Hudler and Monahan in Cal, he's a 2 in Chicago, a 3 in Dal, he might be a number 1 in Edmonton which is quite an accomplishment, number 4 in LA even Taffoli is better, I guess La better be ready for a 7 million dollar hit for Taffoli.... I could do this all day....

Some of the best deals ever done in business, are the deals that you did not pull the trigger on.

straight up? that trade would get done
Nonis would have to be a pure idiot not t.......oh wait

Are you talking about a Kessel for ROR deal straight up?

Oh gawd no.

nope, Blozak

If you think he doesn't have potential you're kidding yourself...

ISS scouting services who is probably the best scouts for hockey have him listed at #3.. I don;t think he is 3rd but I have him in top 4-7 picks....

I'd rather have Strome and the other 2 I don;'t need to mention. but if those guys are gone Toronto could use his size and talents!

Any he's waaaaaaaay better then that Stewart brother you mentioned... this I'm 100% sure of!

ISS had Grigorenko at number 2. The whole time. Unabashedly.

Kessel for ROR, their 1st and 2nd is what i was talking about
i'd settle for ROR and just their first

Its a nice hockey proverb....but what is its relevance to the convo?
What trade didnt we pull the trigger on?

We ditch 30 -35 goal scorer for ROR?

We already have Kadri......who I admit is not as good defensively.

Bozak and ROR swap makes sense, but what else are the Leafs giving up?

nope, Blozak
- the_eye

Bozak for ROR?
sure.

- mochoson

Kessel, Bozak + Nashville 1st + Kadri for ROR, Duchene

go go go Nonis!

Leafs get their 1-2 punch at centre.

Avs get a 2nd line and 3rd line centre. Plus a 1st line winger and draft pick to boot.

and their 1st and hopefully 2nd, yes

If you are moving kessel to rebuild....that is not the right deal to make IMO.

Bozak for ROR?
sure.
- Fakepartofme

i'd have to throw in Gardiner too
just because i can't stand him

- mochoson

Reimer to backup Bobrovsky

why not?
you can move ROR easily for a good pick and a prospect

straight up? that trade would get done

not straight up, someone proposed ROR and our 1st for Kessel. I would do it if was the 2016 first. This draft I wouldnt want to move the 2015

No team that has a potential lottery pick will move a 2015 1st until the draft order is decided.

maybe Burke
