I can't belive Lindros is still playing
NHL trade talk - canucks, etc... [warning: hockey fans only]
We should stop discussing the leafs. The only thing that will save that team is if you fire Quinn and trade 70% of the roster.
Ya, I sig my own quotes.
yeah Quinn is loseing it! Must be the gum
If anything get jovo out of there, not worth it to sign him for next year, he could go elsewhere for big buckss that we cant afford. Bourdons going to fill is spot reallly nicely. Ohlunds the franchaise defensemen, hes never going to leave unless we end up 15th in the west..
Willie Mitchell in minny, rival team iffy trades, lots of rumours though. A million dollar player..
Baumgarterner is ther best player on the team for his price 22 points for league minumum ( 450 k i think ) filled in for jovos absense pretty good.
Dante.. Nonis is looking for a Dman for the rest of the season, someone like weinrich whose got that experience and weinrich is prolly going to come a lot cheaper then Witt or similar
Bertuzzi is the most overrated player in the league.
who'd want Lindros?
belfour, on the other hand, probably has one last playoff run in him.
Belfour needs to be proped up with painkillers for his back just to get through the 3rd period. Chiropractor in the 2nd. He's done. Beat that Bob McKenzie.

yea willie mitchell would be a good one. plus, i think he's a BC guy from the island. weinrich is pretty useless though, and he's friggen 39 years old. i'd spend more on a good d-man that we can keep and possibly move jovo in the off season. i agree that baumer is playing awesome and makes the loss to jovo easier. bourdon will be playing here next year by the looks of it and butechson needs more seasoning but he'll be up with the big club next year maybe too. i've been impressed with the young d-men from the moose so they've go lots of young talent to play with in trades or to count on in the future…
The thought of having Willie Mitchell is great if only so he won't be playing against the Canucks. I also agree that the young D up from Manitoba has played at a very acceptable level. McCarthy has noticably improved since the O-break. Hopefully they can keep improving or at least remain at this level cause they are gonna need to.

Sadly I really don't disagree…
In the offseason we worried too much about has beens, such as Lindros, Allison, Domi, Belfour, and to a lesser extent O Neil, and we used most of our budget on them. The best players for us this year, as far as consistency goes, is our young prospects who make up a total of maybe 40% of our budget.

"we", "us", "our"??
make a leafs thread if you feel like talking about the worst team in canadian hockey.
is there a problem
when you guys are talking about the canucks you don't say 'Ya the Vancouver Canucks played good last night', you say 'Ya we played good last night'
you need to understand I wasn't talking as a whole of the NSMB community, but from leafs nation's point of view

leafs = ownd
but this thread should be a free all about all teams so no worries. talk about leafs, this is a trade thread but just know that leafs suck :lol:
leafs suck :lol:
yes they really are this year, but I still love them
I am a real fan, and not a guy who jumps ship on a bad year or two, and then becomes 'the biggest fan ever!' for the team who is doing good on that year
I'm also still a fan of the other Canadian teams so as long as one of them wins the cup it is still a good year for canadian (nhl, not olympic) hockey

unfortunately i don't think the leafs will make the playoffs. i was actually hoping that all canadian teams would make it in.
