Solution trade Kessel to Calgary for 2 firsts and a second then can sign Kadri. lol. really if Kadri is smart he signs a one year bridge contract and then if does as he shows then he will make up for that in next few years. He does need to keep quiet about negotiations. 5 years 25  million if...

If Kadri is asking for $5.5 million per year long term,would he given cap limitations this season be better to take the $3 million for one year. If he puts up numbers like the best portion of last season, he might ask and get $6.5 million per  long term next season with the higher cap.

It is a wait and see time. Leafs want to get a contract in line with their value and players want to get the best deal. Both want to be in Toronto and leafs want both. Once this happens then the other cards will fall as far as cap issues go.

Franson is more valuable as an asset even if youtrade him later due to the prospects developing as NHl ready. Given the leafs powerplay woes with out Franson.

Will be hard to deal Liles now when can get him for nothing player wise. May cost them more money wise than 2.6 million.

Maybe Fraser got it. Now lets get Franson and Kadri Signed. Find a taker for Liles even if retain a portion of his contract for this season.

I think we need to keep Franson. Surely players can see that patience in this year will give team more cap room for future contracts. I do not think Fraser gets that. Trade Liles and Fraser if need to or bury them in minors. Leafs can exceed cap by 10% until Season starts.

I think he was talking about the negative and impatient attitude of fans, media, and management. We sign one of top free agents available and we tear him down before he even steps on the ice. I think he was looking at the collapse in game seven. Instead of letting it drag us down to make rash...

Re spoiled by Matts. Matts was never a defeceman. IMO while Phaneuf is not a Scott Stevens he is a top flight defenceman. He plays extra minutes against the other teams best offensive forwards. If they were to trade him they would need to get top flight defenceman back. If however the leafs were...

I suppose the critics will be more concerned about the typo on Ferguson than reflecting upon my thoughts.

Here we see the negative leaf fans criticizing before he has even played a game. The Devils wanted Clarkson, other teams wanted him because he was top rated free agent. Of course they are all wrong. No wonder many free agents sign elsewhere!  Leafs earned respect in playoffs and have rebuilt...

any away from this site prediced bruins sweep and maybe one game. This site a little biast. Isn't it a little curious refs ignore a dangerous elbow to the head and call a delay of game penalty in a tight game on a team shorthanded (last night LA game.)

Kessel lost the bruin and trade stigma now He can be Kessel. Reimer needs to work on rebound control, even the greats like Bower worked on that. Kadri and leaf centers work on faceoffs. Carlyle out coached Bruins coach. Fans need to learn to be positive instead of being negative. This series was...

Remember Graboski has been sick with an unknown illness. Something that saps his strength. Plus I think he is more suited to an offensive role. Next season he will be back.

After the shock wears off I think what leafs need if they only do one thing is get a center that can win key faceoffs.Kadri will improve but if leafs would have won a couple of faceoffs in the last minute there might not have been an overtime. If can improve defence a maybe but have some that...

For the first time in a very long time the leafs have an identity. An identity lost in the Ballard years of impulisive changes of course guided by not wanting to pay good players. To Pat Quinn's signing stars past their prime hampered by exchange rate of Canada US dollars. He traded off the...

Other than a shaky first game which I expected the major difference in the series is one word, experience. Thr bruins have used their experience and scored when the opportunities have arisen. Leafs could easily be up 3 games to one or tied given experience and confidence. Add  couple of key...

I agree there is a great inconsistency here. Lupul probably should have been punished for his dangerous hit. But looking at Nashs hit it was as bad if not worse in that he came towards the player to make a hit and late at that and Nash's hit would have been in a much more dangerous spot for...

Why did Graboski not have shot in the shootout especially given Jets had last shot. I would have put him ahead of Francon, Phaneuf, Frattin and even Kulmanen.

I think the main reason was Lupul was ready and they needed to make move. Steckel was the one to go. They got someone for him and a pick. Because McClaran was a waiver pick-up can they waive him? Besides needing an Orr could they get anything for him? Steckel is the only logical choice. I think...
