Leaf Rumours

The Leafs can afford to trade Kaberle AND Schenn for Ryan if they wanted to. Sign a guy like Paul Martin and we're all set on the blueline.

Beauchemin Phaneuf
Martin Komisarek
Gunnarsson Aulie
(Mikus, Holzer)

Kessel + Ryan on the wings with Kadri + Bozak down the middle would be dynamic young group going forward.
 
When I said "up and coming", in Phaneuf's case, I just meant still evolving as a player. Figuring that defencemen typically don't peak until later in their 20's
 
Erm... wtf?

MapleLeafs Wild rumour today-Kaberle-Kulemin-Bozak to Edmonton for 1st overall and a big Oiler salary...we'll see.
 
MapleLeafs, I think is everyone's favourite Paul Hendrick, its probably bullshit but:

That Oiler salary would likely be Souray
 
I'm sorry but if that ever happened we would have to take Seguin on principle. I don't know if I could stand looking at Taylor Hall's face for the next fifteen years.

Hall's a better fit from a positional standpoint as he can play the wing (as well as spot duty down the middle) and the Leafs have a lot more depth at centre than they do on the wings. At the same time though I have always been a firm proponent in the policy of BPA. Always take the best player available because team needs are malleable and are in a constant shift. Personally I think Seguin profiles as a better two way player than Hall (I can't help but see Ron Francis in the kid -- he even looks like him), but it depends on what the scouting staff thinks for obvious reasons.
 
Yeah Metal, I was just saying to HL the other day that the NBA Draft actually makes tonight a lot more interesting that it would otherwise be. The Raptors could make some moves and it kills off the final night befor the mayhem is expected to begin.
