Leaf Rumours

[Artnes]

a little hot out to be wearing a hood isn't teeds..

 

[PlayerToBeNamedLater]

I think Teeds' wife/gf is black...which I believe gives him a one slur per month exception.

 

[Montana]

 

[zeke]

I love Wayne Simmonds.

I never liked JJ, but he did look pretty awesome at the Olympics.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

You're all off your rockers.

You want what will likely top out as a 2b or 3a line winger good for 20-25 goals and a defensively awful dman whose offense is wholly unimpressive?

They should fold the franchise if that one ever went through. And you must all be drunk if that's the return you think Burke would covet and LA would reject.

Haha, LA would DIE for that trade to go down.

 

[TimHorton]

Simmonds has first line written all over him. I have no idea what the hell you're talking about?

And although JJ is a debacle right now, we could bury him in the 5-6 slot and try to rebuild him slowly. If we make that deal I'm thrilled.

 

[Volcanologist]

Ha, an epic meltdown from teeder in the past day or two. Love it.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

I'm talking about watching Simmonds live here in LA regularly and knowing he's NO first liner.

And you'd do the deal without even liking JJ??? Ridiculous!

What are you guys smoking....

 

[LeafOfFaith]

We're talking about, and I guarantee that Burke is trying to bring about, a deal of a magnitude that it would involve getting back a player like Staal or Ryan in return for Kaberle.

He's not gonna settle for some secondary player like Simmonds. Man, just too crazy.

 

[TimHorton]

Staal is every bit the secondary player what the hell are you talking about?

 

[axlsalinger]

Assuming we have to include another piece in that deal, who would they want back?

Simmonds & JJ for Kaberle & one of Caputi/Blacker/Paradis/Aulie/Mikus?

Or just the 2-for-1?

 

[Montana]

Hopefully Paradis.

 

[Pronger84]

Assuming we have to include another piece in that deal, who would they want back?

Simmonds & JJ for Kaberle & one of Caputi/Blacker/Paradis/Aulie/Mikus?

No, no and hell NO to that trade. If Burke is trading Kaberle it's for a legit scoring winger, NOT for another tweener and defensmen. And besides the only black guy Burke would trade for is Iginla.

 

[Metalleaf]

I like Simmonds, but I don't think I'd be 100% on dealing Kaberle+ for him and JJ...

 

[hockeylover]

Kaberle for Simmonds and JJ? No way LA does that.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

LA apparantly loves Simmonds....I'd almost sooner see them moving Brown.....but i also question the need for Kaberle in LAK.

 

[Metalleaf]

bringing skin colour into this discussion is silly.

 

[Pronger84]

Kaberle for Simmonds and JJ? No way LA does that.

No way Toronto does that trade either.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

No, no and hell NO to that trade. If Burke is trading Kaberle it's for a legit scoring winger, NOT for another tweener and defensmen. And besides the only black guy Burke would trade for is Iginla.

pulitzer material here.

 

[hockeylover]

Oh I think they do.
