I fully expect Brisebois to be very aggressive at the deadline. Looking at Tampa's cap situation for next year, they have about $10 million to fill out 5 forwards and a goalie just to get to 20. Pretty much their.last hurrah imo.

wdym imagine? Their D is worse than last year. It came down to one goal last year and they lost McDonaugh and Palat, why should we be more worried about Luke Schenn?

Not to mention the improvements on D and in goal we've seen from Toronto this year.

And why is Jordie Benn in for Timmins and Holl (2nd biggest minute muncher on team, arguably has been most trusted defensive player on team this year)

personally worried about nick paul's ugly face scoring another two goals while a tampa player sits on a leaf

leafs need to get someone even uglier

Oh no! Luke schenn! What ever will the leafs do against a guy who cant crack the top 5 on the canucks and might play 5 games of a cup run.

Who knows, maybe his ring is all he needs

Yeah, it's true, guys who barely play or make an impact on cup teams get a ring too

I see your point but I disagree for 2 reason. 1. Never admit defeat, that's a loosing mindset and the leafs need to shake that so badly. Second. The leafs have two years where their window to compete is clear and then it gets foggy. Realistically the next two years are their best chance. I'd like to see a deadline like last year. Don't get the biggest piece but add a few key players
