Yes - it's an aggressive and unrealistic trade to take advantage of a hopeless GM on a floundering team. JVR gives them more top 6 talent, which they actually need. If he'd resign there for $5-$6M then they would probably do it. Gardiner gives them a rushing defenseman who can help start plays and has the potential to be good if he stops having brain-farts.
From a TML perspective, Jones is a prospect - that's it. Same with Puljujarvi - just potential here. The 1st rounder is just adding insult to injury, so feel free to take that out of the equation. Yes - we're not rebuilding, but JVR will not be resigning, Gardiner can be shipped and replaced by Dermott, and then we have some new prospects in the pool + we could use those assets for acquiring a top 4 D potentially. - wbodnaruk
you need to sell things to chia that he wants. he over rates other team's players based on draft position. he over rates big players. they need 1) nhl dmen and 2) nhl wingers.
jvr + rasenen might be enciting to him. maybe sosh or leivo as throw-ins. klefbom or rnh could be had. not chia type of players. maybe you squeeze out a pick out of him too, but even he's not dumb enough to trade both JP and his 1st this year. |

I'm guessing you mean "enticing" - but inciting is definitely funnier. |

I respectfully disagree with this and I did with you before the season started too. I guess we'll see how the rest of the season goes. - RickJames77
Well look at it this way.
Drouin, Pacioretty, Lehkonen, Galchenyuk..... well pretty much everyone is producing less than their career average.
Price wasn't playing like Price before he was sidelined....
I'm not saying they're not bad, I'm saying they're not THAT bad. |

I don't think anyone could get enough of Youppi. So i'm guessing it's not true. |

Doubt very much the Leafs move JVR, the brass obviously thinks (perhaps foolheartedly) that they have a chance at the big prize this year. JVR is a proven 30 goal scorer with finishing touch on the PP. As a UFA, he will not get anything close to that coming back this year. Bozak and NHL caliber players either in limbo or on the Marlies are much more probable imo.

The only player producing as expected or better is Gallagher.
Little bastard never gives up. |

I don't know, man.
Look at this picture.
Look at how Youppi is looking at Price in the corner of his right eye.
Look at the poop-eating grin on Price, as he smugly glances sideways at Youppi!.
And now there's two posts about this on Hockeybuzz - so where there's smoke, there's probably got to be fire. |

I agree they aren't bottom of the league bad but they haven't done a lot to improve their team while others in the division have.
Similar to the Leafs with Kessel and Phaneuf, fine players but combined the team didn't work so it had to be dismantled. |

Now Wedgie, I don't find this at all funny! Hockey players are people and suggesting this TMZ style of rumour spreading accomplishes nothing positive, other than weak humour.

Nylander, Gardiner, Marner are all producing less than expected, just like your guys. The Habs problem is you don't have enough depth to recover when your big guys are not producing.
So our guys haven't got it together yet but we have goal production from Marleau, Brown etc.
The Habs are a bad team and should sell all the assets you have and start over. |

Price has been playing terribly, but I don't like your defense at all outside of Weber.

Why don't you just come out and admit you are a Habs fan?
