"Rangers play-by-play guy Don LaGreca thinks that Michael Grabner is being traded to #Leafs. TOR was interested in re-signing him after the 15-16 season & Mike Babcock loved his defensive ability & speed, but dealing for a winger makes little sense unless they are dealing a winger"

Couldn’t stand him during time here, would hate to see him back.

La Greca just needs to get on Overdrive and tell us about Joe Pisarchik and leave the rumours to the big boys

Unless JVR was being dealt it doesn't make any sense. I like Grabner though, good PKer. Couldn't finish for **** when he was in Toronto.
It depends. Are you moving JVR for assets to get a D? Then bringing in Grabner?

If we get Grabner to replace Kapanen in the lineup i'll be so disappointed. We have enough wingers. Get a defender please!

Brown to the 4th line, Komarov to center and Moore out of the f***ing lineup, Grabner to our 2nd line

Same lines
JVR-Bozak-Grabner
Same lines
Kapanen-Komarov-Brown

I don't believe our management team is that stupid

Maybe if they go all in on a defender and Kapanen is moved. Otherwise why?

I don't see us making a move that costs Kapanen and/or Liljegren type package.

i could see Grabner as a possible JVR replacement. Grabner for a 2nd. Turn around and trade JVR to Nashville for Tolvanen or Fabbro. I think that would be great asset management. Not sure how much we would lose with Grabner replacing JVR. Especially given our top two lines. And you are picking up a great long term goal scorer in Tolvanen or good D prospect
