Leaf Rumours

Yeah, Kaberle would be a good fit with the Habs. He's not as dynamic offensively as Markov, but he's not too far off, and can at least stay in the lineup.

Hopefully it doesn't happen. Seeing Kabby in a Habs jersey while we're stuck with their putz Komisarek instead of him would be sickening.

I know, I am still in therapy from seeing Gilmour in a Habs jersey.
 
James Mirtle Brian Burke says netminder Jussi Rynnas is out at least four weeks with his broken finger, making it unlikely they move a goaltender

Funny how quickly you can go from having a goalie log-jam, to scrambling to find a rent-a-goalie to fill in as the back-up for the Marlies. Shows the importance of having depth.

I have supported trading kaberle for a few seasons now but I cant for the life of me understand why the leafs would let kaberle walk for nothing.
If a deal cannot be done at the deadline, then re-sign this guy. Put komi into the minors and use that money to resign kaberle ... if they are in the same predictement next season, then trade him as a signed top level dman.
Also, I agree with LGM .... set those parameters for the trade and a deadline (this sunday) and if they are not met ... SIGN THIS GUY! He might be the top free agent out their besides Richards this season ..(markovs injuries and all).

pretty sure komi has a NMC

He doesn't. He has a limited NTC where at the start of every season, he submits a list of 12 teams that he would accept a trade to. There is no current Leaf that has a NMC that would prevent them from getting waived---the only Leaf to ever get one of those was Bryan McCabe.
 
I'm thinking one of the reasons Burke won't re-sign Kabs is because Kabby wants a no-trade clause. I don't think Burke wants to ties his hands like that

Oh come on.

Whatever we have to do to find a temp backup, just trade Giggy for that pick, man!

Exactly. Call up Tampa, tell them to put Mike Smith on re-entries, and there's your back-up for the rest of the season. Or, just do the "conditional 7th rounder" bs again and pay his salary. Done.
 
yeah you can get a back up cheap.. let Reimer play the whole rest of the way... hell we could probably call Gerber if need be again.

Trade for a guy who is getting burned in the AHL almost every shift. That is exactly what we need

Actually, that would be an absolute steal of a deal for Toronto. Souray's only signed for one more year at $5.4M, and he's already in the AHL, so you could just leave him there. Komisarek on the other hand, is signed for three more years at $4.5M, and you know Burke would never waive the guy. But that's also why Edmonton would never make that deal. And I'm also sure Edmonton isn't among the list of 12 teams that Komisarek is okay with being traded to.
