Sujet: Barrie
So, why does Arizona want Horton? He isn't playing and he costs 10.25m out of pocket . Why does Detroit trade one of their few good youngers players with term, for one year of Gardiner It's almost similar for Barrie, a don't see the Leaf trading Nylander for two years of Barrie. Defence seems to be a need of both teams so I don't see the Avs making the trade either.

Palhal, Im sure Arizona doesn't "want" Horton, but they may want is 5+mil to reach the cap floor (this was before OEL was "signed") Toronto needs the cap space eventually, dump the contract now. Why does Detroit do a lot of things? read they are interested in Kovalchuk, brilliant pick up. Toronto wont be able to afford Matthews,Marner and Nylander going forward, trade Nylander for a young right handed D, pick Dumba if Barrie doesn't wet your whistle. Might be a few buy outs after next season, Martin? Marleau?, 20 mil coming for the M&M boys (Matthews and marner that is)

yes everyone, I realize that defense is important, im not saying don't play defence, but the Leafs management has drafted high skill guys to put the puck in the net, how bout making a system that encourages that a little bit more than the defensive side. if you wanted a defensive team, than why haven't they drafted and or traded for defensive minded players who can grasp that aspect of the game quicker than some and or most. That's what im trying to say here, you think the 80's Oilers would have won all those cups if they were defensive minded? maybe? probably not, if you are going to build an offensive team, preach offense, teach defense of course, but dance with the ones that brought ya. Babcock in my opinion is so bloody worried about defense right now the kids look lost, id rather them win games 7-5 than lose games 3-1.

Hi Price_is_the_goat, I get what you are saying, and I understand the concept, what am having trouble grasping is this team isn't set up for defensive responsibility, they are set up to roll over you and embarrass you offensively, let them be who they are, first 7 games 6-1, scoring , exciting hockey, next 5 games 1-4, cant score, cant defend any better than they did in the first 7 games and the most important stat of all, is they are not winning, and its ugly to watch. Grant Fuhr with the Oilers had a GAA close to 4 every year, Save Percentage never higher than .895, but do you know what was high? his winning percentage. all I am saying is let the boys play, who cares if they win 8-7, a "W" is a "W", and if they make the playoffs, win by 5-4 scores lol., Babcock wants 2-1 scores with under 20 shots a game, does he not realize the talent this team possess? let them play free and at the end of the year lets see where they are.

Can someone tell me what the big deal is about Doughty??, ok yes he's a good defenseman, but have you really watched him play? he basically turtled last year when the kid from Calgary wanted to kill him, he's averaging 43pts (not 60+) like Karlsson a season and he makes 7mil, which he will demand 10mil+ in 2 yrs. IMO he is waaaay overrated. Yes he's only 27, and a right hand shot but c'mon trading two 60+ point forwards a 50point defenseman oodles of 1st rounder's for Doughty?, no chance in hell I make this deal if im Toronto, If I was LA and Lou called me to offer this, id accept the deal before hitting the ground from falling off my chair.
and BTW, why are there so many trade proposals on this site that include the Leafs 1st round picks? leave those picks alone, that's what got the Leafs in trouble all these yrs. is by trading away 1st rounder's, they are finally drafting well, leave the picks alone.
