At this point it's clear that it would be a bad idea to bring hime back. Would be awkward...
Waiving him would be stupid, so hopefully we can at least get a decent pick or prospect for him if a team doesn't want to give up a roster player.
Can't see many good offers being out there with teams knowing waivers could be a possibility.
Why the HE double hockey sticks would you want Dan Boyle he is 38 years old,and he sure did a lot to help San Jose in the playoffs,i would rather take my chance with right handed shot D-man Magnus Nygren and his 105 MPH slapshot.
Gorges + DD for a RHD or a Top 6 RW or LW

Maybe if you add a first rounder to that.
Scraps rarely get quality.
This! Especially a guy like Gorges.Trading with Toronto or Boston should never happen....rivals rarely trade.
To me, waiving or trading Josh Gorges for any trash player would be a terrible asset management.
I'm well aware Bergevin wants to clear some cap space, but trading someone as useful as Gorges for peanuts only because he's overpaid by a few is terrible.
If we trade Gorges and use the cap space to bring in Boyle it definitely gives us a strong (if not ancient) top 4, however leaves with basically nobody on the back end who can kill a penalty.

I doubt Bergevin will trade or waive Gorges for a worse player.
rumour floating around Habs and Stephane Robidas

As far as I know, looking at the Leafs roster, the only players who could fit in a trade would be Franson or Gardiner.
Let's just hope it's not Franson.
