Leaf Rumours

[Hoss]

I still think that nonis could move liles. It would have to be for more salary back but it could be a piece in a deal. Something like liles for stats.

I also have a bit of fear and a feeling that if Nonis isn't buying out grabs. I can see him trading kadri as part of a deal for a centre. It's the only thing I can see happening with not buying out grabs.

I'm pretty sure that all of the talk about clearing capspace for free agency included shopping Grabs and Liles. We'll have to wait and see what shakes out.

No interest in playing anywhere in Canada, man, its not that bad here, well,actually it is. Apart from Toronto, we really don't have anything cool in Canada whatsoever. I guess I can understand where he is coming from. Boston is really cool.

 

[Killer93]

Liles being traded is almost a certainty at this point

 

[Metalleaf]

Is that what you think, or from your source?

Boston is the least cool city in north america.

It's peak of culture is drunk fratboys.

Apparently Calgary reached out to the Bozak camp today and made a strong offer

 

[Metalleaf]

They can have Bozak.

For a Historian Boston is a nice city, but it has nothing on NY.

Good. I see Matt Stajan didn't manage to teach them a lesson about overpaying for middling players who've been holding down the #1 center job on the Leafs by default.

I like Pouliot as a potential cheap replacement on the wing.

Good size at 6'3, he will get you 40-45 points and he consistently posts a strong corsi playing against good competition.

 

[zeke]

as long as you're a white historian.

 

[zeke]

hey killer, I'm using you as my personal "source" on HFtards.

make me look good.

 

[PlayerToBeNamedLater]

Feester is a moron, so anything is possible.

 

[Killer93]

Go right ahead; as I said sometimes my bud is bang on and others times he isn't; just like anyone in the media.

“@JoshRimerHockey: Doug MacLean on NiteCap "I would not be at all surprised if David Clarkson is a Maple Leaf July 5th."”

One thing's for sure: Killer's source is better than Doug MacLean's.

Let's say we sign those three guys. We look like:

JVR $4.25 ------ S.Weiss $4.5 ------- P.Kessel $5.4
Lupul $5.25 ---- N.Kadri $3.0? ------ D.Clarkson $4.5
Colborne $1.0 - D.Bolland $3.375 - N.Kulemin $2.8
McLaren $0.6 -- McClement $1.5 --- C.Orr $0.9
(Ashton $1.0 - D'Amigo $1.1)

Gunnar $3.0? ------- Phaneuf $6.5
Gardiner $1.1 ------- Franson $3.0?
Liles $3.875 --------- Gilbert $2.0?
(Fraser $0.8)

Reimer $1.8
Bernier $2.0?

Armstrong $1.0
Tucker $1.0

Total $65.75

And that's being pretty cheap on the RFA contracts.

So we'd definitely have to get rid of both Grabo and Liles to fit all 3 of those guys in.

 

[Killer93]

I would think its highly unlikely they sign all 3 given how high prices will be
