oldnews Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I would do edler for kadri straight up. toronto would be stupid if they threw in a first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
combover Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 the leafs kicked this guy around for a few years up and down when he should have been with the big club now there asking for him to take a hometown deal contract. nonis is useless (still)before he wetted his pants overpaying for a 3rd liner in clarkson he should have locked up his own rfa's. kadri's camp doesn't owe the leafs a thing and this is how they treat a player that really help them get into the playoffs. look back to last season leaf nation nonis himself were sing how this kid was the next best thing the future of this team a allstar and superstar. geez talk about eating your own words and it would appear nonis does that alot. in this market 4-4.5 mill in not unreasonable for a TOP line winger.

missioncanucksfan Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 This is where Gillis should offer sheet Franson... Nice longggg term contract he is looking for. Come home to BC where you cut your teeth playing junior. RH shot that can QB the 2nd unit pp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edlerberry Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 at least Gillis doesn't give away cap space to third liners who had a good season or two rather than making sure he can re-sign his remaining key players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missioncanucksfan Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 With what cap, Franson is supposedly asking for $4-5M. No thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sampy Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Well when you get rid of Booth and or Bieksa, you give him one of their salaries. Franson is also 6-7 years younger than Bieksa and less injury prone. Surely he could slot in along side his old buddy Hamhuis and form a great pairing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missioncanucksfan Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 So the Canucks are gonna give away a top 4 dman and a top 6 winger just to make cap room for Franson, who we'd also have to trade for?? Bieksa>> Franson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sampy Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 A top 6 winger who hasnt actually been a factor in 4 years and is brittle for a 26yr old 6'5 dman who can be more useful? In a heartbeat..... As for Bieksa.... I maintain all along that he is part of the aging core that needs doing away with. I was a huge Bieksa fan and sad to think he IS getting older. Im sorry but in the new cap world, personal feelings and love fests for a player are a thing of the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdubuya Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Lol, from so called bust to 5 million dollar player in half a season. Man are these young players filled with a sense of entitlement these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missioncanucksfan Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Franson is softer than Charming toilet paper. You take out Bieksa and add Franson, the Canucks would have zero snarl on the backend. Leafs are not taking Booth for Franson so you'd have to give away Booth than trade an asset for an overpaid Franson. Once again, No thanks.

Me_ Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 That would be an absolutely horrible deal for this franchise. Henrik, Kesler, Schroeder, Richardson, Santorelli, Gaunce, Horvat, Lain, Mallet... The Canucks have a pair of first round picks in their top 6, they have another one emerging in the lineup, and another two centers selected in the first round the past two years. Kadri is a misfit here - the primary ozone starts role is the Sedins - Kesler eats up another 20 minutes, Kadri is not a third line center and would find himself in a Hodgson situation here - there is no real need to add a player like Kadri to this lineup - he has far more value to the Leafs. On the other hand, dealing Edler - without bringing a defenseman in return - is a really bad idea. Beyond Hamhius, Garrison and Alberts on the left side (and Garrison might wind up being used on the right) - there is Tommernes and McNally in the system... Beyond that, but dealing Edler for an RFA with one half season of NHL production - is a serious overpayment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
