Slipped my mind putting them on the wings. I hope we draft some boom or bust defensemen after our number one, because we need them. I really don't think we need to draft too many more forwards.

Lol remember the off seasons where every spot was already locked up by a vet and rookies never stood a chance of making the team.

I'm surprised there isn't more discussion going on about Calgary's AGM scouting the Leafs tonight. Bernier isn't in net, he's there for someone else. I'm pretty excited at thinking about the possibilities.

What ever post number this is in this thread is where we will draft in the first round.











With our second first round pick after trading up. :)

Whoever it is - i want Sean Monahan back.
Burke owes us.
Edmonton could have had Dion or Seth and sat on their hands.

Question for everyone. At what point would you try and trade some our picks for young players? Maybe a team is having trouble signing an RFA , would you give up one or two of our many seconds to land an RFA defenseman or stay the course and just draft?


I would say - when the time is right. but seriously I think you'd have to be sure. that kind of stuff scares the poop out of me right now because we're so bad at it for so long.

I figured after Bernier got pulled, any hope of a trade with Calgary evaporated. But I guess it's after someone else, who they think is worth sending both Burke and an AGM to scout.

Or he's scouting Nashville.

The Tank is looking strong so far vs Nashville.

Now we just need Edmonton to win some damn games!

Under the heading of Dumbest no nothing toronto media: kevin Mcgran of the star is spewing that Lou is kicking tires in Bickell from chicago. He has 4 million this year and next with a limited no trade clause.

Why would he agree to go to the leafs I'm wondering. If thats true Chicago would have to give a 1st round pick minimum. Not likely after trading last years 1st rounder i would think.

I hate toronto media including all major networks. I hope Lou continues starving these low life vultures right out of it.

We don't need the overpaid scavengers! The good blog sites that write fair and honest and as fans are better respected.

Screw every media outlet i despise them.

So he can play in the NHL regularly. He's played more in the AHL than the NHL this season. Also, a chance to prove he's still got it.

So far all of the trades Lou has made no one heard about prior to them happening. I'm of the believe that if the media is reporting about it chances are it's not true. Now if somehow Bob McKenzie would report it I might believe him since he has a great track record and is a respected insider.

Did you just ignore all the other reasons. You think Chicago is really willing to give up their 1st round pick too?

Two years @ $4,000,000 is definitely a first or a top prospect. Doesn't seem likely to me.

Opens up the cap space for teh hawks? that's 4 million we take out of their hands while we likely get a prospect/ pick

I was addressing the part I bolded. Which is why it was bolded.

Bottom 5 NHL team > AHL team

A trade that does make more sense for both teams:

JVR to Hawks for 1st + prospect + Bickell (dump)
