Leaf Rumours

I dont think Leonsis, assuming he wants to move Ovechkin is going to let McPhee do it.

That screams offseason move, same with Backstrom and Green if made.


McPhee at best will be allowed to move UFA's like Ribiero and pieces like Brouwer, Chimera, and Beagle

Jagr was traded in the middle of the season at the behest of Ted.
 
Ovechkin - XXX - Kessel
Lupul - XXXX - JVR

Sweet top-6 winger group. Expensive too, not sure if we can afford anything else on the team.
 
You only make a Statsny deal if he comes cheap. That's a big cap hit for a guy who has been a 50-60 point guy over the last 2 seasons.

One good thing about Stastny is that he only has 1 year left on his deal after this season. So if he has another unimpressive 50-60 point season, you can just let him go.

Or resign him even cheaper...and i imagine it woudnt cost THAT much to bring him in.
 
For the Leafs though, he isn't an upgrade on what we currently have. You'd have to trade for him believing that he needs a change of scenery or he will click with Kessel.

I'd pass. Get a legit top C or go with what you got.

Yikes - judging from this it would be a huge mistake to give up anything of value for him... especially with that contract.
 
Darren Dreger on the Team 1260 today in Edmonton said that the Oilers made an offer to the Leafs for Connolly but the Leafs weren't happy with the return.

He said it was a player making more than 3 million with another year left on their deal. The players that fit that criteria are Nick Schultz, Hemsky and Horcoff.
 
If were taking Sloth back there better be some incentive behind the deal

Actually Horcoff has 2 years left at 5.5. So the only likely option would be Hemsky.

I can't see it being Schultz as they are slim on D as is
