Leaf Rumours

[PlayerToBeNamedLater]

I prefer shock.

disappointment that this is even being discussed as a viable option.

 

[Wayward DP]

Frustration.

We finally, finally get good goaltending, and we're talking to a guy who's been the worst starter in the league this year and has a huge contract.

 

[Wayward DP]

Yeah, seriously, who the hell trades for a $6 million AHL starting goalie?

 

[trujaysfan]

@FriedgeHNIC: Do believe this week BOS/MON will be national game on HNIC with TOR/NJ Ontario-only

 

[Artnes]

Nice to give them one game a year at least

 

[Montana]

No hysteria. Just disbelief.

You've been acting like 55 year old woman dealing with menopause, who just found out her favourite soap opera star might be killed off.

 

[TimHorton]

Another reason not to live outside Ontario!

 

[leafman101]

After all of this I bet they won't even acquire him.

Not yet. But if Nonis does lose his mind, then you'll see some real hysteria.

No, he's acting like a sports fan who really doesn't like a heavily rumoured move.

 

[Volcanologist]

It might also be a situation where there's a larger deal on the table where taking Kiprusoff is a potential chip towards getting something else of value from the Flames.

 

[Cory_BSF]

Is it such a bad deal if say Komi goes the other way ?

I don't understand what's so inappropriate about weighing in on a trade rumour...

 

[Montana]

Not yet. But if Nonis does lose his mind, then you'll see some real hysteria.

If Nonis acquires Mikka Kipprusoff, while parting with worthwhile assets to do so, makes him the #1 goalie, and eats 100% of his salary?.......at least then it would be justified.

Reimer seems to have issues with it as well.

Maybe it's not just me.

There's a plethora of scenario's where it's a logical move......Flames eating a big chunk of his 2014 salary, use acquiring assets for eating the salary, it being part of a larger deal (like the ones I've suggested earlier).

There's also a scenario where it would indeed be a absolutely terrible move........but why some have blinders on about it being the only outcome, I don't know.

Reimer's probably thinking to himself, I'm 13-4-4, 920 SV% -- what the **** do I need to do?

But the Leafs have done this with a lot of their kids. Kadri wasn't good enough. Reimer isn't good enough. Scrivens isn't good enough. Gardiner isn't good enough.

 

[Montana]

Reimer seems to have issues with it as well.

Which is scary.


I'd like to believe he's not quite that mentally fragile. I mean that's the kind of thing I'd expect from Gustavsson, not Reimer.

 

[Montana]

what the **** do I need to do?

stay healthy?
