I'm going strictly off educated guesses. I am going to guess that JR has been a buyer since... August. The teams that we needed to suck are also buyers because they are good. The players available to us aren't anything to write home about and are overpriced. With the team the way it is, why give up a possible lottery 1st or a guy like Sprong if the rest of the team is going to play like ****. (Something we all wanted from JR).
Soooo my guess is JR has been shut down left and right. Root for Toronto to get lit up each night to the point where they NEED a defender. Any 3C that becomes available, other teams may be able to offer us more.
So one magical night something will happen. That's basically it. I've seen people have good info, but ultimately JR's group is very quiet.
Ya, pretty much.
I think we can both confirm from different sources JR has been chasing Kane. How it plays out, who knows. I don't think even JR knows the answer right now.
Most stuff I've heard doesn't come to pass, so unless your are Eklund, no reason to blab about what you hear. Tons of potential trades fall apart every season for one reason or another.... way more than the ones that actually happen.
