Leaf Rumours

I'd probably do Kaberle for Savard, if Savard checks out medically.

Kabby's one of the best bargains in the league - but Savard might just be THE best bargain in the league.
 
Ugh... Ribiero makes my teeth itch. Skilled yes, but I can't help but recalling that diving performance where he writhed around like he had appendicitis on the ice then laughed on the bench after the ref called the penalty. Douche.
 
Everytime I hear Ribeiro's name...it reminds me of this:

and it makes me cringe....but then you look at his talent...and think we could use that.
 
Wow. I would give up Luke Schenn is a heartbeat. HOW, HOW is this guy going to make us regret giving him up? In what way?

His shot, speed, CALVES???? Get Savard NOW. Entertain ME.

Didn't you just post about how Chia should be trying to get rid of the 32 year old coming of a concussion and signed for 7 years?

Another source says Boston wants Kaberle in any Savard deal. This is getting crazy ! LOL

I'd be mighty pissed if we give up Kabs for Savard. I would much rather keep Kabs on the backend.

If this happens, I'll also be convinced that Burke is a Bruins mole.

Savard's cap hit is so low because he's signed until he's 40.
 
I would be very pleased if we gave up Beauchemin for Savard. He fills the role emptied with Wideman traded to Atlanta.

Then, if we could land Perry with Kabs and Kulemin, I'd be convinced we have the talent to be a contender again. One qualification to that is we need a proven starter or establish one and get rid of Wilson.

When did Wideman get traded to Atlanta?

He's a Panther.
 

seems like Chia has really backed himself into a corner here, really. not much bargaining position, and a 7 year contract for a 32 year old coming off a concussion just can't garner that much, I don't think - especially when there's only a couple of teams he's willing to go to.

but with what has happened, it doesn't seem as if Savard can stay in Boston now regardless.

Okay maybe that's not exactly what you said but it did appear as though you were claiming that Boston was dealing from a position of weakness due to Savard's contract.

That statement seems odd when you actually believe that Savard is the best bargain in the league.
 
Even though I'm disappointed we got nothing for him, I don't miss that punk Ribeiro one bit.
 
A few things Leaf fans need to get over...

1) Kaberle will not be traded. Forget all the rumors, hoopla, whispers etc. He'll be a Leaf come October.

2) Boston can ask for Kaberle all they want, they're not getting him.

3) Komisarek and Beauchemin are about as different as it comes concerning style of play. With the loss of Wideman I just can't see them wanting Komi over Beauch. Especially since Lubitch took Komi's balls.

4) Acquiring a #1 center would definitely put you guys in playoff contention to I have to think Burke gets this done somehow.

5) Forget Giguere as trade bait.

if there were no mitigating factors (like length of contract and injuries), it would cost a whole lot more than one year of Kabby to get Savard.

but to be more specific, when I talk about best bargain, I'm talking purely about caphit right now - i.e. a legit PPG+ centre for $4 mil.

the length of the deal isn't so pretty, though. nor the injuries. and it does seem like Boston has backed themselves into a corner.

and saying that I might deal Kabby for Savvy, doesn't mean that it would necessarily be one for one.
