I love how crazy people get when slumps happen.

I just met a guy at work today who said the Leafs should trade away guys for picks this year. Like huh?

Meh,
2. Leafs
3. Caps
4. Pens
5. Lightning
6. Preds
7. Flames
- Garnie

all should be in sell mode

Pesce, Ferland and a 1st for Nylander, Liljegren and a 2nd?
- PatC80

That works too.

Dreger says they're watching the Canes D.
- BINGO!

thats almost like an eklund rumour then

That works too.
- BINGO!

Why is this so hard for Dubas and Waddell?

I'm okay with that. Don't wanna trade Hamilton anyway.

Faulk, Ferland and a 1st for Nylander and Liljewhatever.
- BINGO!

I don’t see Nylander getting traded...for at least a few years.

They could get Johnnson a 1st plus whatever depending on who it is.

Johnnson is a legit talent.

Then the Canes have two firsts and two seconds next draft. Trade a 1st and a 2nd or two firsts for a JT Miller or Palat. TB likely will have to cut someone for signing Point.

Then they got

Nino-Aho-Teuravainen
Johnnson-Staal-Miller
Svechnikov-Wallmark-Williams

For next year. That isn’t bad.

So some of the Leafs management team was at the Canes/Flames game last night?

Let's just get this (frank)ing done already.
- BINGO!

Deal, Freddy the GOAT and a 4th for Brett Pesce

Quickly! Fire Dubass and hire Chiapet! He’s a Stanley Cup winning GM, gerd damnt!

I don't know if Carolina wants draft picks in return. I think they want immediate help. From what I've read Dundon seems to want this team to be in a "win-now" mode.

Pretty close.

Pesce, Ferland and a 1st for Nylander, Liljegren and a 2nd?
- PatC80

Thats not great for the Leafs IMO

thats almost exactly like an eklund roomer then

Fixed

Yeah and the Leafs have wanted a top 4 d for 3 years now.

You don’t always get what you want.

Don't want picks. Want a guy with term who can play in a top 6 role right now and going forward. We're looking at cost controlled forwards because Aho is going to need a raise right away and when the puck starts going in for Svechnikov he's going to be ridiculously good/expensive.

Thats not great for the Leafs IMO

Carolina is 7 points out of a playoff spot. If they miss the playoffs, we have a potential lottery pick

Probably because there's actual consequences if one of them (frank)s up.

- Steven_Seagull

Why fire Dubas? Chiapet is a perfect special advisor to the janitorial staff.

Glucker,
- BINGO!

Is Pesce a good defenceman? I don't watch the Hurricanes enough to form a legitimate opinion.

- BINGO!

Who cares. If one gets fired, Chiarelli can step in right away.

Then, you'll give us Hamilton for Zaitsev

- BINGO!

Who’s giving a top 6 forward away for Pesce or Faulk?

There isn’t any options I can think of.

Brendan Saad is about all I can think of. Any other team isn’t going to want to trade a 22 year top 6 old for Faulk or Pesce.

- BetterCallSaul

i prefer him over burlington

We're probably not making the playoffs but a 13th overall pick is not all that helpful at this point either when we've got a ton of AHL guys ready to step up.

Because Max and the old kook Princess don’t like him?

- BINGO!

It would be more beneficial to us.. We need more guys on ELC's
