Toronto acquires John-Michael Liles for a 2nd rounder http://twitter.com/#!/TSNBobMcKenzie/statuses/84356107417567232 edit: This is a great pick up. People were willing to part with Komi, Gardiner and Boston 1st. But Burke got JML for a 2nd rounder. A damn steal. Where them Burke haters at
^ Yo you get both Carter and Richards! Though you do lose a great prospect in Schenn... We wanted Schenn lol
yeah i liked schenn too, but as long as he's not the next crosby, i'm fine with that. it would have been nice seeing the brothers on the same team. definitely going to miss simmonds' grit and attitude. and carter was sent to the blue jackets...
You're right. But ours look a hell of a lot better edit: Got a feeling Richards gonna play for NYR..... Using Leafs to bump NYR offers.... Sneaky bastard...
bummed that the kings didn't land brad richards. they had gretzky and kobe making pitches for them! i do like the gagne signing though. cap friendly, and short term.
all i know is sabres making big moves and being stronger which makes leafs making playoffs even slimmer next year
Tampa is only offering Stamkos something like $7ish million.. If we can get rid of Komisarek somehow, imagine this: FORWARDS Steven Stamkos ($8.000m) / Tim Connolly ($4.750m) / Phil Kessel ($5.400m) Joffrey Lupul ($4.250m) / Mikhail Grabovski ($2.900m) / Nikolai Kulemin ($2.350m) Clarke MacArthur ($3.250m) / Matthew Lombardi ($3.500m) / Colby Armstrong ($3.000m) Mike Brown ($0.736m) / Tyler Bozak ($3.725m) / Colton Orr ($1.000m) DEFENSEMEN Dion Phaneuf ($6.500m) / Keith Aulie ($0.733m) John-Michael Liles ($4.200m) / Luke Schenn ($3.500m) Cody Franson ($0.800m) / Carl Gunnarsson ($1.325m) GOALTENDERS James Reimer ($1.800m) / Jonas Gustavsson ($1.350m) BUYOUTS: Darcy Tucker ($1.000m) CAPGEEK.COM TOTALS (follow @capgeek on Twitter) (these totals are compiled without the bonus cushion) SALARY CAP: $64,300,000; CAP PAYROLL: $64,070,000; BONUSES: $150,000 CAP SPACE (20-man roster): $230,000 AWW YEE MUHFUGGAH AWW YEE
Stamkos.. such a young age. Already recieves a high pay roll compared to people for his age. Kid sure is talented. MacArthur 6.5mil/2 years? Edit: If and only if we get Stamkos, we need to give up 4 first round picks.. right?
stamkos = versteeg same type of player...needs good players on his team to be good...leafs dont have a st. louis or lecavalier to feed him pucks... but go head and sign him burke to long term so you can be stuck with him (burkie fail)
