What's headscratching about this is they weren't even drafted in the same year or in similar spots in different years. One plays in the AHL, one's in Europe. They're completely different types of players. And why the Wings vs the Leafs? Do they still have pent up frustrations from years back?

Toronto won by a big margin against the Ducks. Ottawa is having a good lead at the moment... we managed to score only once.

Ducks also started Bryzgalov tonight and we all know what a great goalie he is.

Funniest part was when Cox got all pissy afterwards because people rightfully called him a moron.
On a spectrum, Tokarski+Beaulieu is probably even closer to the actual value of that number 1 pick than Price+Subban.
in both scenarios, arguable the best d-man and goalie in the league for a kid who has not even played a game in the nhl... when both teams windows are wide open/just about wide open for a Stanley cup and depend upon no 2 players more than the ones listed.....is it just me or is the sportsnet crew the most idiotic bunch of ****ing bafoons that ever fell out of the ****ing sky....what a gong show...give me back the cbc crew for christs sake.
just logged into twitter to post on Damien cox's tweet to find that I've already been blocked clearly not the first time he was a raging lunatic

Nice rant from Steve Dangle. Sometimes, when I listen to him, I can honestly feel that I could just replace 'Leafs' with 'Habs' and it will still be applicable. OK, maybe that's an exageration
that guy is hilarious

subban? i'd think about it, price? get the **** out
and lol @ tokarski + brolieu oughta do it. were talking mcdavid, not rnh or yakupov
is cox that far off? mcdavid is projected to be another crosby like talent, he was set to break records before breaking his hand
as a starting point i don't think it is all that idiotic of a proposal
maybe a counter with 1st for subban/tokarski
i don't know who i would part with first, who is easier to replace?

If we traded Price and Subban we could say good-bye to any cup aspirations for another 5yrs.

Without deviation progress is not possible
Honestly. What's all this talk of McDavid? Even if you extricate Edmonton's first pick, there's no guarantee it's the first overall. And even if it is, you have a 1/5 chance only of winning the lottery. You'd need to also get Buffalo's pick, assuming they're the bottom 2 teams, and they might not be, to even have less than coin flip odds for McDavid. Statistically, you actually require all top 4 picks to creep over 50% odds. It's absolutely insane.
Those are crappy odds and I would not move Price or Subban for that, never mind both. Cox is a moron, maybe the worst "insider" in the business.

Yes. Cox is that far off. And I'd wager McDavid won't be even close to Crosby.
The draft can be very random, and no player is a guarantee to become a star at the NHL level. Even if they do, how much time will it take for him to develop exactly? You're trading an established, core piece of the team for a *possible* superstar, most likely 3 or 4 years until he's at a similar level to the piece you traded for him, and that's if he reaches that level to begin with. You're severely postponing your chances at a cup, while pissing away the good years of a lot of your core players, for a very small payoff at the end of it... Which is no guarantee.
Some people around here thought Subban wasn't worth MacKinnon last year. That kind of trade sure would look good today.

McDavid will be Crosby/Malkin level and may go point per game in his first NHL season.
I would offer Plekanec or Eller, Gallagher or Sekac, Fucale, Beaulieu or Tinordi, and a first ... but only after the lottery was won.
