I'm not sure trading Kadri is a Ujiri type move, at least not a big time move. He was arguably the best 2nd line centre in the league and the best dollar for dollar cap hit outside an entry level player also. Then he got his ice time nixed, his role changed, and he was essentially demoted.

Almost 2 seasons ago. He’s 29. Send him to Phillie for the 11 pick

So Kadri is good and it would be asinine to trade him, but we need to trick a dumb GM?

I’ll keep him if the trade doesn’t do anything for the Leafs, you’re right there.

- Garnie

Dubas would need to trick another GM to trade a younger, cheaper and equally proficient player for Kadri.

If he's traded, I hope it's to a Western conference team.
A dumba player maybe.

maybe kadri + johnsson for faksa + hintz (or whatever he guy's name is).

It seems unproductive to me to trade Kadri when you have to replace him with another guy just like him, and I do not see that in the Leaf system. He is affordable and has some traits that grate on opposition players. Just a guy you want on your team.

I think dumbas game has actually come a very long way. He certainly doesn't suck. And I don't see him regressing like dion did either....unless he marries elisha 2.0.

Thoughts.

Need to get this Marner deal done soon. I don’t want to spend all summer talking about it.

Pull the trigger on whatever trades your going to make Dubas.

Can’t go into next season without a 4RHD.

This year was hard to enjoy, we knew they would kill in the regular season. Next year will suck more unless they go deep in the playoffs. I don’t care if they put up points like TB, I won’t be happy until they win a round.

If you have a chance to get a guy you don't know you have to do it, and overpay

With Tavares on board, Kadri's role was dimisshed somewhat. More of a checking center.
- dmnted



Yes, we probably should have never signed JT.

Making it tough to sign our young guys, and build the D up. We had 2 good C's before JT.

Leaf fans clamor to sign every big name free agent available, one finally signs here and puts up amazing number and it was a mistake?

Remember when the center depth was Bozak - Grabovski - Connolly? Now it’s Matthews - Tavares - Kadri. (frank) D. (frank) depth. Role three lines (frank)ers.

I wouldn’t say Clarkson put up amazing numbers...but it was definitely a mistake.

Ahh

You are one of those suckers who believes the TSN comparables for draft picks when they are 18 years old.

Dumba isn’t Phaneuf.

He could score and hit in junior and thats why he had the “phaneuf” comparables in his draft year by mainstream media.

Any intelligent person can see there is no comparison now. Other than their size but that has no relation to someone’s skill.
