glen Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 Leafs stole that one. I like the way they play now. I hope they get a play for gartener so he has a pass at the end of a rush. Nice job Babs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostAnotherOne Posted January 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Leafs are 7-2-2 in last 11 games. Playoffs here we come lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oggie Posted January 3, 2016 Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Don't really care if they make the playoffs but it sure is nice watching a team that plays a system. You can actually see guys that know what their doing and depend on each other. Nice to see Bernier returning to form. I never like watching a goalie losing his confidence. BTW. Who ever commented late last year that the start of the long decline began with the loss of Kormarov was dead on! I never realized what a good all-around hockey player he is. Babcock has certainly recognized it and someone on this thread did as well. Bill M I'm thinking??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fav part of TradeCentre last summer for sure! lol!!! Edited January 4, 2016 by BillM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Agreed. I have never owned a jersey since Gretzky on the Oilers with a name on the back. When Komarov did his first stint on the Leafs I bought a jersey and had his name put on the back.... then he left to go to the KHL. (teaches me to put a name on a jersey, lol). was very glad when he came back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oggie Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 Sorry Steve. I'm thinking you should have got the nod as well. I underestimated the guys hockey sense as well. He certainly knows where to play in his own end and I like the way he takes the body. Playoffs or no playoffs .... you know he'll finish his check.

Steve Posted January 4, 2016 Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 oh, certainly don't apologize....bill and I both spoke highly of Komarov....he just speaks louder than I do :) although I think the upcoming world cup is a farce and a huge joke, it will be awesome to see Leo wearing the Lion again.

LostAnotherOne Posted January 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2016 I like to see Komarov get some interest at the trade deadline later this year. He would be a perfect fit for any team making a push for the cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIFTER_016 Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 As per the Leafs facebook page. Leo Komarov has been named to an NHL All-Star and will represent the Maple Leafs in Nashville. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmer Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 I don't think that they should trade Leo at the deadline. He likes TO and we should keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 I don't think that they should trade Leo at the deadline. He likes TO and we should keep him. I don't think Babs has any plans to get rid of Leo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey buoy Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Why would he,one of the best top 3,who said he should be traded ???? lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bacon Posted January 6, 2016 Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Why would he,one of the best top 3,who said he should be traded ???? lol. You have to give something up to get something. They can probably get a better return by trading him than they get for a weaker player. A lot depends on his contract too. If he becomes a UFA after the season then trading him now for someone who can help the team in two or three years may make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostAnotherOne Posted January 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2016 Big trade. Seth Jones for Ryan Johanson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaf4 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Wowowowow big trade! Both these guys have huge upside, though d men like Jones don't pop up every year. On another note Lecavalier and Schenn for a prospect and a 3rd round pick, lol salary dump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRIFTER_016 Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 And Mike Richards got a 1 yr deal with the Caps. Hope he doesn't spend it all on coke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 A lot depends on his contract too. If he becomes a UFA after the season then trading him now for someone who can help the team in two or three years may make sense. Leo is still locked up for 2 more years (at an incredible $2.95m / year). UFA in the 2018-2019 season. Leo will not be traded. Not even for a 1st round draft pick at trade deadline. The only teams that would want him (that would pay for him) would be teams making a run for the cup. If a team makes a run for the cup, that means they'll have a high draft pick. Trading Leo isn't even worth a 1st round pick above 18 or so.... Leo will be around for the length of his contract...and by that point, he will be revered like Gilmour or Clark was (not saying as good, just as revered) ... and he will be offered a long term contract to end his career with.

G.mech Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 (edited) Well now, just when you think you have it all figured out, these headlines pop up: Canada misses medal round at WJHC the Leafs are above .500 & 8-2-2 in their last 12 Bernier gives up only 1 goal in the last 7 periods, Babcock says Reimer's back in ASAP John Scott is team Captain at the All-Star game, Crosby misses the show It's a crazy hockey world we live in.....

Oggie Posted January 7, 2016 Report Share Posted January 7, 2016 Boy the Leafs sure can frustrate a team with that defensive style of play. I thought Anaheim was going to blow a gasket last night! Bernier is returning to form and it's nice to see. My son was a goalie and I feel for them when they lose their confidence. It's such a challenging position mentally.
