Zoolander Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 As much as I hate the leafs....Kessel could be a good fit here Another American who plays hard, and could complete the Am-Ex Line a lot better than Higgins could Our go-to goal scorers are Daniel and Kesler, if they get shut down (which they do occasionally) it would be nice to have a another Sniper. We already have Kassian developing into a PWF, why not add some raw skill We'd easily have one of the most dangerous top-4 forward groups in the league Chicago-Hossa,Sharp,Kane,Toews Detroit-Datsyuk,Zetterberg,Brunner,Flippula Boston-Seguin,Lucic,Bergeron,Horton Pittsburgh-Crosby,Neal,Malkin,Kunitz Vancouver-D.Sedin,H.Sedin,Kessel,Kesler, with Booth,Burrows, and Kassian supporting 15-25g easily Framework of The Deal: To VAN-Kessel, Ashton/B-level prospect (this package helps us win now) To TOR-Luongo,Raymond,2nd rd pick ***conditional 1st rd pick 2014 if Raymond doesn't re-sign Sedin-Sedin-Kassian Booth-Kesler-Kessel Higgins-Burrows-Hansen Volpatti-Lapierre-Weise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuxfanabroad Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 Zoolander, On salary issues, we'd just be kicking the can further down the road. With Kessel, Booth & Ballard around, 64.3 mill becomes a fantasy. As we get closer to next yr, gm's will be less likely to do Gillis any favours. He'll be forced into buying out and/or getting late round picks for these guys. It was this issue I tried to address with the initial proposal. Twins & Burr/ Kass, Kesler & Kessel-line 2(The KILLER-K's), Burr & Kass could switch at times, to keep opponents guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
