So many problems...
1. All those trades, and not 1 was for a center...
2. Where's Dermott
3. All those trades and you don't trade the 3 big UFAs?
4. Where's Dermott?
5. WHY IS POLAK IN THE TOP 6?!?!?!?
6. Top 2 trades are way off.

You don't trade for a average to poor player (Staal) for depth, when he has a three full years left on his contract. Leafs are fine at LHD with young Dermot and Borgmanplus Reilly and Gardiner.

agreed, even with money retained, the leafs can do better

We have many puck moving defenseman.. Reilly Dermott Zaitsev gardner.. we'll need another stay at home style Dman once hainsey kicks the bucket.. I know he's a lefty but Gardiner only has one year left and with the retained salary staal would be paid like the 4-5 D man that he his.

Borgamn and Dermott aren't ready for NHL playoffs

1 this is just for some playoff depth.. well have to acquire a 3rd line C in the off-season or draft
2 although Dermott has been great... I don't think he is ready for NHL playoffs and I think it will show soon
3 again.. this is for playoff depth.. all UFAs will walk this off-season komarov Polak jvr bozak Moore maroon all gone
4 he's winning the Calder cup with the marlies
5 Polak was an effective penalty killer in last year's playoffs.. until he got injured
6 rangers are in full blown rebuild mode & maroon will be a lil expensive because he's cheap and will be saught after by other teams
