Cujo Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 So far today's winners to me are:Washington: KnubleChicago: Hossa, Kopecky and having Khabibulin signing elsewhereIsles: RolosonCalgary: BouwmeesterTampa Bay: Ohlund to play with HedmanShould anybody else be added to the winners list?I would go ahead and add the Oilers to this list since 1) they went out and snagged a franchise goaltender, and 2) they are attempting to rid themselves of the human mistake that is Dustin Penner.

Linus Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Komisarek is a Leaf. ! I am extremely pissed off. beLEAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charger77 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 As a Maple Leaf and Brian Burke fan I am going to go ahead and trust Burke until he proves he doesn't know what he is doing. He built a good team in Vancouver and a Championship team in Anaheim. Give Burke time, its a process.-Dan PotD May 11th, 2011looooooogodud: June 7th 2010 - July 5th 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew22 Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 To Atlanta: Pavel Kubina, Tim StapletonTo Toronto: Garnet Exelby, Colin Stuart Haha. Have fun with Exelby. Eagles/Heels/Dawgs/Falcons/Hawks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linus Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I hate Komisarek though. He's dirty and he's overrated. What has he done to earn 4.5 mill per season for 5 years? NOTHING. beLEAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEW.ERA Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Flames did what they had to do, re-sign Pardy and attempting to re up Dustin Boyd. And I'll be looking forward to seeing The Bulin Wall 6 Times a year haha. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelayedPenalty Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 I hate Komisarek though. He's dirty and he's overrated. What has he done to earn 4.5 mill per season for 5 years? NOTHING.Komisarek is a gritty player who plays with a lot of passion, which sometimes ends up being dirty. I think he'll be a good fit for the grittier Brian Burke style Maple Leafs. With the loss of Kubina we need a big man on the point who can take shots, cause we all know Kaberle won't shoot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linus Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 We need some guys who can score up front. I love Van Ryn and White but I can see one of them being dealt for a forward.We need scoring! beLEAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEW.ERA Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 So Cammalleri to Montreal. How does Calgary fill that void?-DanMove Rene Bourque to the top line with Jokinen and Iginla, and go out and sign a cheap young winger I was looking at Joel Ward until he resigned, I'm still keen on Chad LaRose.

(not very productive in his first stint in TO) Havlat? (risky again). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Replacing them would have been very tough. On the other hand, they lost Ohlund and haven't actually added anyone to last year's roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njmeadowlanders Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Brashear signs with the Rangers according to sportsnet.caI hate him. He's a scumbag. He has zero redeeming qualities on the ice, and literally the only thing he knows how to do is fight and get called for penalties.Also, what a slap in the face to Blair Betts. Here Brashear destroys his face and ends his season, and the Rangers reward him with more money per year than the Leafs gave Colton Orr who I hope beats the crap out of him the first time the Rangers and Leafs tangle.End rant.

dwertman Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Dale Tallon is a cap genius...but 12 years for a 30 year old? Sure hes a elite player but he will be 42 if he plays out the contract Kings Cross AFC -BIP, Winnipeg Falcons - TNFF, St. Louis Archers - MLF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Van Ryn and White but I can see one of them being dealt for a forward.We need scoring!Dont worry that will come soon. Remember this is a re-building process mode it doesn't happen in one day let alone a year.Soon you will see guys getting dealt ( imo soon to be Kaberle ) and maybe some small minor signings.

Linus Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Noooo, we cant trade Kabrle now. With Kubina gone, we need one guy who can move the puck and anchor the PP.Delayed Penalty, there is no one left that fits the Leafs needs. I wanted Cammalleri and I know he's not worth 6 million but I want to know what the Leafs offered him. Getting Exelby is a waste imo. We already have Kabrle, Van Ryn, White, Finger, Schenn, Frogren and now Komisarek. Thats 8 defencemen that can play. Burke should have tried to get Colby Armstrong or another young forward off of Atlanta instead of Exelby.Im hoping we are able to trade Finger or White. I love White but I dont see him sticking around when his contract is up and maybe we can get a deal going where we trade White and get a forward in return. beLEAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But now that we have Orr and Exelby, we have enough guys who can fight. If we didnt sign Orr I would have jumped on the chance to get Neil but now I dont know. How many boneheaded tough guys do we need? We went from a bunch of softies to one of the toughest teams in the league lol...pretty soon we'll have guys like Neil on the first line. beLEAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shumway Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Well, with Hossa and Kopecky gone, that means Helm and Abdelkader are going to spend the season in Detroit. I like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
