Will the Leafs be a different team on Thursday?

[LeafOfBread]

So with the 4-day break cry, Leafs don't play again til Thursday against Philly. Trade deadline is Wednesday; it's possible that some players may have played their last game as a Maple Leaf last night. It's also possible that they stand pat, or they trade prospects/picks.

Do you think moves will be made that will affect this roster, outside of call-ups/assignments/healthy scratches?

We sell one low end d man for a pick that's all.

 

[Suntouchable13]

I don't think that anyone who played last night is going anywhere. Unless the Leafs get a clear upgrade by trading somebody on the roster, nobody will be moved.

 

[FlareKnight]

I really don't expect much to happen, aside from guys becoming healthy enough to return to the lineup.

Think with this team being on the verge of the first (that thing I won't mention) in a while, don't think they will mess with what is working. The prices are going to be too high to buy right now and selling is just flirting with disaster.

 

[Schenn]

Won't be an exciting deadline, IMO.

 

[HEAVY DUTY]

I want us to add a dman to play with phaneuf and a veteran goalie to help nurture Reims. I'll be happy if nonis can do this!

 

[Pi]

I can't see much happening at all. I just hope we can find a top 4 RHD.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

I can't see Nonis doing NOTHING even if it's just a prospect swap. I do see a d man coming and still don't see Nonis going into the playoffs with a combined ZERO games of NHL playoff experience

 

[leafsforlife]

Knowing how inept the flames management is, I'd love if nonis traded a bag of pucks for Kiprusoff and he actually reported for duty.

 

[deleteme24]

I've changed my stance on our goalie situation. Let us go like we are and let them develop. We can always reassess during the summer.

Anything else maybe some leadership but even that I don't think it's an issue right now. I say we're good to go.

 

[MastuhNinks]

I'd love to see the Leafs trade for a good defensive defensemen but other than that I hope nothing big goes down.

 

[Mansfield]

i'm thinking one lower end dman for a pick or something, that's it

 

[Kurisu]

I hope Kostka is traded. That's different, right.

 

[leafspring*]

I voted yes we will see trades. My ideal moves i would like to see would be costly,but i would like to see Steve Ott and David Clarkson added. The reasoning is i believe they are great fits for Carlyle.

Character players and veteran leadership. Lots of nasty. Why wait until summer to sign Clarkson i'm thinkin. Screw Luongo or adding a veteran goalie too.

I think Reimer is off the T! t bro.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

I don't know what to say. I'm not expecting much tbh. We could easily just add minor league prospects.

 

[diceman934]

We will make a couple of moves at the deadline.....maybe one that brings us a player who will a difference maker.

Players who could move

C Mac
Liles
Bozak ( not likely unless we get a better proven center)
Kostka,
Hamilton

I say that Nonis would like to move most of these players....

Liles can be moved afterwards but would be available for a decent return.
C Mac, Bozak, Kostka and Hamilton are all UFA and will be shopped...

 

[WilliamNylander]

I can't see Nonis doing NOTHING even if it's just a prospect swap. I do see a d man coming and still don't see Nonis going into the playoffs with a combined ZERO games of NHL playoff experience

you know we have players who have been in the playoffs before right...

 

[Kessely Snipes]

I don't see anything major, minor transactions maybe. Would be happy if we could add top 4 dman.

 

[pooleboy]

Don't expect a lot. I hope I'm wrong but I doubt it

 

[JMcLeaf]

I wouldn't mind seeing us add a tough forward like Clowe and a top 4 dman and moving out Mac for a prospect and/or pick, but I don't expect we'll see much action

 

[Brock Radunske]

I'd like to see Mike Cost-us to get dealt for a 3rd and then make a move for a vet top 4 d a la Robidas or Morris.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

you know we have players who have been in the playoffs before right...

ya I was in a rush and missed a word. It's meant to say I can't see us going with 2 goalies with ZERO NHL Playoff experience. To me that's not realistic .

 

[allyb]

would love a specialist defenseman for the 1st pk to take the minutes off Dion and if he could upgrade on gunnar all the better

upgrade on bozak

dont know whio is available and i think nonis is pretty sharp so will leave it to him

 

[RomanianLeafs]

we did to much scouting on other teams , i doubt we're staying the same..clarke bozie scrivens are gone in my opinion..
