We were respectful of the house for the most part, but how are you not supposed to take the (frank)ing elevator when you come home plastered at 3am? C'mon man

What are the odds that he pitches again this season?

I would say pretty low

This checks out

Oh right, we didn't lose the Pacioretty trade yet.

My mistake.

trade him to the Islanders for one of their first round picks(11th or 12th), Brock Nelson and Parker Wotherspoon

First, pray that Lou doesn't become the GM of the Islanders.

Then trade him to the Islanders for one of their first round picks(11th or 12th), Brock Nelson and Parker Wotherspoon

i don't think lou will give up that much.

It makes me laugh that anyone compares the Larssen-Hall trade with Burke's Kessel deal. If the Leafs did not crap the bed the entire season this discussion would be mute. I remind you that Chiarelli traded both the first (Taylor Hall) and second (Tyler Seguin) picks from that year and got shafted on both deals. So would anyone want to trade with me....I will trade you Taylor Hall and Tyler Seguin for Adam Larsson and Loui Eriksson. See how stupid we can make deals sound.

Garth Snow would still be the GM, Lou would report directly to the SnowShow.

You know what would have prevented that trade from being laughable?

If Burke had simply top 5 protected the pick he traded.

But he didn't.

So it will remain hilarious.

Forever.

yeah, crank it up to grandma level

To the best of my knowledge you could not protect any picks until the NHL adopted the draft lottery in 2015. You slept in the bed that Burke made.

I am pretty sure teams could negotiate any terms in a deal they wanted.

Yup, they could.

Burke simply failed.
