leaf4 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 off to Dallas for Tiny tim ! Would be nice if there was a quality d man available for the leafs to scoop
Brettiop Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Wow this is the first year in awhile where the leafs haven't been rumored to be in on EVERYONE available...
Brettiop Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 And Moulson to Minny.... Where is Vanek going to Go? wings or Chicago my guess....
grimsbylander Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Thanks KF. Can't wait to get home, kick back and get caught up on the action. BTW, have the Leafs announced the roster for tonight? Anyone sitting? Hmmm
Brettiop Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Vanek to MTL.....damn apparently for only a 2nd rounder and a mid level prospect? Yikes thats cheap...
kickingfrog Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 For a over rated player who doesn't put up a point a game? He fits in perfectly.
solopaddler Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Vanek to MTL.....damn apparently for only a 2nd rounder and a mid level prospect? Yikes thats cheap... Not for a UFA.
manitoubass2 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Nonis says there was a lot if interest in Reilly. Glad we kept him Edited March 5, 2014 by manitoubass2
Brettiop Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Not for a UFA. Even for a UFA its pretty cheap They traded Moulson and a 1st for Vanek, then turn around and trade Vanek for a 2nd and a prospect... Garth snow should be fired....
jbailey Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 yes Garth snow should be fired, that's disgusting..
jbailey Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) For a over rated player who doesn't put up a point a game? He fits in perfectly. Vanek is definitely over rated. I guess you're referring to Subban and Price? The way everyone hates on them in TO its hard to understand how they are considered over rated. Sounds more like a bias opinion of a lengthy rivalry. (Don't get me wrong, I don't think they're God's gift to hockey, but they're not awful by any stretch) and as my duty to partake in the rivalry, I will post this link as a reminder... http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/1201/nhl.players.poll.most.overrated/content.1.html Edited March 5, 2014 by jbailey
lookinforwalleye Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Well I think I will chime in on the Vanek to MTL deal sitting here on my ocean front balcony in Greneda sippin on a ice cold Caribe!!! Well as Rob so astutely pointed out he is not a point a game player but how many NHL players these days put up a point a game. He is having a decent season considering he has played with two crap teams and he has more points than the magician JVR!!! Montreal needed a goal scorer and they went out and got one!!! Gotta go now and grab another Caribe and watch the sunset!!! Gord signing off from sunny Greneda!!!
jedimaster Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) I am no mathematician but I would take JVR with his 4.25 mil per year and 52 points over Vanek and his what 7.1 mil per year and 53 points.... Just saying.... However, Vanek isn't a bum. He is a good player, and MTL needs anyone that can score. Even if they have to pay them 3 times what they are worth. Edited March 5, 2014 by jedimaster
Brettiop Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Come on Jedi Master, gotta give Vanek some credit...this is the only year(and maybe last i guess) that JVR has been half the player Vanek has been....
manitoubass2 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Even for a UFA its pretty cheap They traded Moulson and a 1st for Vanek, then turn around and trade Vanek for a 2nd and a prospect... Garth snow should be fired.... should be but will he??? The isles have the weirdest management I've ever seen in the nhl. If you washed jerseys for the team for 5 years you might move up to management with a $50 million dollar pay increase lol Edited March 5, 2014 by manitoubass2

Ya JVR and his 91 career goals....if Vanek was wearing a Leafs jersey now you guys planing would be planning the parade yet AGAIN!!! You guys made me miss the sunset!!!!

davey buoy Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Come on Jedi Master, gotta give Vanek some credit...this is the only year(and maybe last i guess) that JVR has been half the player Vanek has been.... Realy???I think not.
kickingfrog Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 I was wrong Vanek. He isn't that good of a fit. Word is it will take 5-7 days for Montreal to get a jersey big enough to fit him.

Jigger Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Was really hoping Clarkson would be gone when i turned on the radio...
Steve Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 no one is crazy enough (except us) to pay him what he's making.
lookinforwalleye Posted March 5, 2014 Report Posted March 5, 2014 Was really hoping Clarkson would be gone when i turned on the radio... Ya was kinda hoping the habs would have forgotten about Vanek and went after Clarkson and his 4 goals!!!!
Jigger Posted March 6, 2014 Report Posted March 6, 2014 no one is crazy enough (except us) to pay him what he's making. He left money on the table in Edm. Was thinking an offer from the Leafs would seem a bargain to Craig Mac...
BillM Posted March 6, 2014 Report Posted March 6, 2014 Does the ice look like it just went through a nuclear event for anyone else on the feed from Sportsnet? Holy bright batman!!!!
