Leaf Rumours

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.

Interesting idea
 
Edmonton may make the deal, because they could use a stay at home D like Komi, and have a pretty damn tough time signing players, without overpaying.

Taking Sourey's money off their books, would ostensibly mean they're taking on 3 years of Komisarek for 8.1 million...
 
I like thiat idea. It's a win-win for both teams.

Toronto can rid Komi's cap hit, and Edmonton, who's got lots of cap space anyways, will rid Souray's contract.

We may have to sweeten the deal a bit with a late pick or something, but it can work for both teams.
 
Komi for Horcoff.

Drill a hole in your head and fill it with this...

terrible idea.
 
Hey, if we're stuck with the money, I'd rather spend it on a good 3rd line centre (super-elite?) than on a 10 minute a night defenseman.
It would be nice to re-allocate that money to a forward. But not a 3rd line forward who's making a whole million more than Komi per year, and has an extra year on his deal.
 
I don't see why Edmonton would do that. Trade one more year of Souray to saddle themselves with another 2 years of an even worse dman? For a 3rd?

Drury makes sense.
 
They can pay 5.4 million for absolutely nothing next year.........or they could pay 8.1 million and get three years of worthwhile defense from Komisarek.
 
Komisarek sucks.

Its more like they can get out of one terrible contract after next year, or get out of it in 3 years and get a 3rd.

worthwhile and komisarek in the same sentance?....and 3 years?.

HL was accusing CNeely of sounding liek a used car salesman yesterday.....i accuse you now sir
 
Komisarek's played like shit for someone making 4.5 million.........but if you eat 5.4 of his contract, he'd be more than serviceable for Edmonton on their second pairing.



Edmonton's got one of the worst defensive units in the league (second to only Colorado in goals allowed, bottom 10 in SOG against, last in PPG against).......they could actually use a Dman like Komi.
 
I think its more wishful thinking than anything else.

Sure Edmonton could use help on D, but not at the expense of taking on an awful contract, just to dump one year of a guy who isn't even affecting the cap.

Wouldn't surprise me if they could dump Souray with only 1 year left on his deal anyway.
