Leaf Rumours

He doesn't object to backdiving deals in general. He objects to back diving deals where there was clearly an agreement that players would not play those years.

You give a 21 year old a 10 year backdiving deal and he doesn't give a ****.
 
Burke was ordered to trade for Luongo. Straight business. It will ensure we never win a Cup for the next ten years. All business, making the playoffs before the new Markham team disgraces us and gets in.

The cost is horrible and it is rumoured to MORE than Kadri and Bozak. First round pick. Possibly. That is what I have heard for quite some time. If it is ONLY Kadri and Bozak, its just stupid, if it is more, its horrible. We should finish dead last as we are fated to, and pick FIRST.
 
It's not really relevant. He didn't make that side deal to circumvent the cap. He's not a party to that. That is the part of those deals he won't take part in.
 
Well, I read the last two pages or so, you seem to want to use this to say something about the Richards non-signing, right? Which is fine, just completely wrong.
So, yeah.... seriously.

Wach point you made was dumber than the last.
 
I was pointing out that it was Sub, Sub Fred to rail on about someone and not even do a quick check on your grammatical and spelling. Typical sub, sub Fred, and this guy is one of the top ten offenders.

Once again, it appears I was right about Luongo, Burke's being ordered to make the playoffs etc... And the only reason Burke hasn't told Tanenbaum to stuff it, is because the shine has come off his marriage AND his perceived ability to manage hockey teams, and he is NOT the rock star he once was.

Its not definitive YET, but it appears that a lot of future is going to be given up for a guy in his thirties, who very well might use Toronto as a place to start laying eggs.

And ONCE AGAIN, it gives Torontians another chance to see another short term stab at money for the playoffs strategy, versus BUILDING a WINNER.

If the Leafs make this move. I will be Habsy's favourite guy, and perhaps he and his replicants can show it, cause I will be on here constantly, adding commentary and pull and traction to a forum that will be like a tomb. Literally and figuratively.

And I am still hearing it could be a LOT more than Kadri and Bozak. Burke I am sure put up a big fight not to give up a lottery pick but certain ex Leafs are telling me he did. NOTHING is for sure, and I am not going to say its 100%, but beyond letting go of Seguin, he might yet lay one more egg(Burke) for the rest of the NHL, and trade our first unconditionally for Luongo.

Lets pray and hope there is no season AND that there is no settlement before the draft. Because this guy would exercise the trade for Luongo even if the settlement occurs AFTER the canceled season but BEFORE the draft.

Why would Brian Burke be giving out any information to "ex-Leafs"?
 
I don't think there's really much question that trading for a contract at least tacitly accepts the terms of the contract. Whether you personally negotiated it or not is irrelevant at that stage.
 
Making shit up? Like I knew about Kadri before your beloved Darren the Drillbit Dreger? And how I knew about Luongo being a definite Leaf before anyone else? Get a fuggin contact besides the poster on your wall of David Keon you dud.
 
And why would he give out any information? Cause its all in house gossip, that quite often flows around one very bored bunch of fat executives. Good god, have you guys ever worked in an office? Or watched Mad Men? Or Office? Shit flies around all the time. Between the bedsheets and the liquor stand. This is a bunch of DRINKERS. Have you looked at some of the faces, noses and bellies on these guys? Its a potential Dewars commercial.

Heck, half the girls serving drinks in the boxes are pros.
 
So, you old fraud. When one of the following scenarios plays out following the end of the lockout:

A) Burke trades for Luongo and it doesn't cost anywhere near what you're suggesting
B) Burke doesn't trade for Luongo

...what tap-dance will you perform to cover for your lies this time?
