Enjoy watching him waste the rest of Crosbys career, atleast you got one last jab in at the Leafs. Bet you're going to sleep real good tonight knowing you got to make the same joke that's already been told a million times before. You really showed us. It's a shame you're wasting your superior intellect in a Capfriendly forum. Someone of your level should be out making a cure for cancer or something.</div></div>

Dude I was rooting for the Leafs lol. I was simply stating facts… something or someone somewhere is clearly mad at the whole franchise. You don’t screw up this often in game 7s… it’s not normal.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LuckyMoneyPuck</b></div><div>you going to sign a 30 year old 3C to a 6 year deal for what reason?
Someone else can do something that stupid the penguins don't need to be involved.
The Ruzicka signing. Who signs a guy like that for 3 years?

Some of these trades are suspect at best.
Eller trade to TOR, you get nothing back and you are retaining. No way they are giving Eller away and retaining on him for a 4th and a 24 year old AHL player.

That EDM trade as well. Nothing there of any interest.</div></div>

What’s the other option for a 3C upgrade? All UFAs are in and around 30. Monohan and Lindholm are the only good options and they’re going to get long term deals from someone. It doesn’t matter what is happening in 3 years time when this team will be one of the worst in the league. What’s wrong with gambling on a 24 year old forward for a cheap contract? If he isn’t any good he goes on waivers, nothing lost. I have no issue keeping Eller. I’m simply looking for options to bring in younger forwards.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ecupirate07</b></div><div>POJ is okay. Don’t really think he is worth moving Drury for. We can likely get a POJ equivalent in FA although we are likely going to want someone better to help Morrow’s transition</div></div>

The issue with UFAs are they are older. It’s the same problem we have with a 3C. I think Drury could be a 3C but right now he’s a safe 4C. I’ll admit POJ’s probably near his ceiling, that is around 20 points for a season and a 3rd pairing guy. Drury could be a 45-50 point guy but unless you guys move KK, I don’t see why you’d want to keep Drury if you can add a younger Dman. UFAs are going to be around 30 years old. Is Morrow going to be a full time NHLer next year? I can’t see that happening until later in the season.
