Someone on twitter suggested Franson to the Kings for Kempe. I like the sounds of that deal. Skilled Swedish prospect who Nylander is fimiliar with.
I'd take that. Was it a reliable someone or just your neighbour?

Franson for Kempe would be nice
I would drive Franson to the airport if that trade did happen... Can you imagine having 2-4 swedes on the roster in the next 3 years
throw in Reimer and Leivo for Jones
I cant imagine we could get Kempe for Franson since Franson is a UFA. Perhaps if we added a pick or a prospect?

I think we all need to accept Stamkos not wanting to come to Toronto.
He plays in a decent enough hockey market in Tampa. He plays for a very strong team, with a great future, of who he would be a captain for as long as he plays with them. He's got a great coach, and a very smart GM.
Toronto has none of what Tampa has, except maybe its a bigger market.
Rather than banking on him to join us in our misery, I would actually like to rebuild, draft and develop our own stud. It's not like we can't, if Tampa can. Most of their impact players were all drafted outside of the 1st round (Tyler Johnson was a UFA signing).
They have two high picks who they've build their team around, and they've spent the UFA money wisely on guys like Filppula and Stralman.
That, ladies and gentlemen, is how to build a team.
Phaneuf for ROR
Franson Reimer for Jones 2nd
That second deal is terriawful
