Breaking news:
(it comes from Dean Blundell, so maybe take it with a grain of salt)
Blundell claims he has a very good insider in the Leafs organization. He claims that everything this guy leaks to him has come true (including the Babcock hiring 3 weeks before it happened).
So, this insider claims that the Leafs are aggressively pushing for Carolina's 5th. The goal is to draft Hannifin and Marner.
Now, I was driving in traffic and didn't hear all of the details (maybe somebody else who heard it can chime in), but I heard that the deal definitely has to include Semin. Blundell then mentioned that Babcock feels he can work with Semin and can try to resurrect his career. Carolina feels that the Leafs are the only organization that can take Semin's contract and that's why they're showing interest in a trade.
I think Blundell said the deal could be something along the lines of:
Kessel
24th
Carolina's 5th
Skinner
Semin
Yes, this could be all B.S., but it's interesting nonetheless.
Damn.... I haven't felt this excited about a sporting event (draft day) in many years!
