Chuckwoods actually verified the speculation around Statsny, and added in that it was Liles plus a package of mid round pick(s) that was being tossed around

If that's all it would cost to get Stastny, Nonis better do it....
With the Leafs going to buyout Komisarek I rather like to see them save their 2nd compliance buyout for someone else on the roster, just incase they might need to use it and not waste it on DiPietro or someone else with a equally bad contract.Rumors:

LOL.
THis is why Chuck never says anything anymore.
**** gets wayyyyyy out of context, and eventually will lead to people questioning his credibility, etc.
Chuck mentioned that the Leafs and Avs had made contact at some point and mentioned that Liles + pick for Stastny was part of what was discussed. Nowhere did he say 'Liles for Stastny', I think it's safe to say that you'd be adding significantly to JML to get Stastny. If it was Liles for Stastny it would be done by now.
(not hating on you Bert- just the direction this is rapidly heading, what you said was accurate)

I don't understand the buy-out of Komisarek... you're telling me no team want's to take a chance on a guy that could be a vet bottom pairing Dman that gets payed less than his cap-hit (3.5m instead of 4.5m)? If it doesn't work out he walks at the end of the year... NYI or a cap-type team wouldn't be willing to take a gamble on him for a 6th,7th, or even "future
considerations"?
Why would they pay for someone like him when they know they can just wait, and he or a similar talent. will be available for a fraction of the cap hit and money? He isn't just overpaid. He's overpaid and ******.

The more I think about Nonis going after Clarkson, the less appealing it sounds. It seems like a contract that'll bite us in the ass in a couple years when he's not producing as much as people expected.
It's too bad Torres got re-signed, I think he would've been a good replacement for Komarov.
Bingo. I'm hoping for Weiss and Briere.
Briere is looking for a 1 or 2 year deal, which is perfect.
Weiss to a 4 year deal.
JVR - Weiss - Kessel
Lupul - Kadri - Briere
A good looking top 6.
Oh yes, forgot the rumor that Nonis inquired about Clutterbuck and Konopka.
I have a feeling we will see a flurry of activity right after the cup is handed to Bos/Chi.
The next couple weeks are going to be very interesting.
