Take out Chinakhov and I think it's pretty close

I put him in because I think CBJ needs to pay 2 for 2 here. Dubois is the best piece but I think the gap between Dubois and Kotkaniemi is similar to the expected gap between Caufield and Chinakhov the other way. Lehkonen is only for cap reasons and does not factor into value.

I would not do this without Chinakhov or a similar value piece going with Dubois if I was Mtl.

Can we trade him to Toronto for some of our overpaid ****'ing creampuffs instead? Start with Marner

It's good to know the season is started because that's when the Leafs fans turn on their own 2 games in.

Nope not me. I've hated the cream puff play and lack of effort every single season.

That team certainly has no effort. That Ottawa game reminded me a lot of the Ayers game. Just no shots against a weak back end. But randomly throwing your team into a trade just to complain about your players is certainly based on that Ottawa game.

Nope again. You've read my posts, I have wanted to get rid of Mitch and the wimpy team for a long time. If this team didn't have the same problems every season then it would be different, but there is clearly something rotten here.

Sorry you feel that way and generalize me with the dummies, but you are way off base. I am one of the realist fans.

Have you ever actually seen me say I have faith in the makeup of my team?

I'm not disagreeing with what you are saying. Only the timing of it was suspect since this trade had nothing to do with Toronto.

Well I was trying to make a joke, but you ruined it. Jerk

That sounds like me

PS: Gl tonight. I know Zaitsev and Gudbranson were too tough last night. Here's hoping you wore them down. Idk though, they are stalwarts.
