Agreed, altho he looks great most nights, he still has his growing pains and looks like a sophomore slump is starting to settle in. I wonder how a guy like Wennberg wld have fit in on this team, as he was easily gettable. He seems like he cld have been a decent stop gap for however long it'll take for Suzuki to fully take the reigns.

Thread: What they lack
Danault is certainly an interesting situation. If you believe that KK is ready make the jump to 2C. If you feel he is you let Danault walk. I think because of the NMC Price stays in MTL for the full contract or gets bought out. I would love it if Price could go to Seattle because it seems that he's declining. I think with Anderson it all depends on his health if he can stay healthy with the tools he has he can be an impact 25-30 goal scorer every year and make that contract look really good. With Drouin, I'm very torn I want to believe that this Drouin is here to stay but his past play suggests that he's not. I personally like Mete and would like to keep him. He's our best puck moving defencemen outside of maybe Jeff Petry. I don't he'll ever be a high end top 4 defender but I still want him on our team. The future is indeed bright for MTL but Bergevin has a lot of tough decisions to make at the TDL, expansion draft, and in free agency.

Thread: Brian Burke thinks Leafs should trade Nylander for another Defenseman Y or N
brian burke was leafs gm for nearly 5 years and basically sunk the franchise. team didn't make the playoffs once. in fact, unless you count him walking onto an already complete anaheim roster, he hasn't built a playoff team since the canucks in the early 2000s, and even then they were only a second round team (3 first round exits in 4 appearances).

brian burke is 100% wrong about trading nylander - the leafs don't need a top defenceman, they've got 2 in the last 2 years in Muzzin and Brodie, and it cost them a combined price of trevor moore, a first round pick, and a B- tier prospect.

nylander broke out this year and was scoring at a 36 goal pace, he had 31 goals in a shortened season. After Keefe took over and gave him more ice time he was playing at a 42 goal pace. Why are we trading him?
