According to Eklund, a “top, TOP source” contacted him detailing of a potential blockbuster deal that would send winger Phil Kessel, centre Nazem Kadri and a third-round pick for winger Alexander Semin and Carolina’s 2015 first-round pick, which is #5 overall.

I know it's Eklund but seems like leafs must be trying hard for another top pick


That trade would come close to making sense, but it feels like Semin is overvalued. It would make sense to offload Kessel's remaining 7x8m for an overvalued contract for 1-3 years and picks.

Can we just stop posting Eklund, he's wrong 99% of the time.

I don't believe it for a second but it does bring up a good point that Leafs can get more value out of Kessel if they absorb a bad yet shorter contract. If they commit to the rebuild like Buffalo they basically have to take big bad contracts to hit the floor, lol.

1 NHL team has reached out to former lightning coach Guy Boucher.


Leafs still looking at gm + coaching options. It's believed Tor contacted Guy Boucher. Boucher told TSN 1050 an NHL team had made contact.

Also told Leafs would like to speak with NYR asst gm Jeff Gorton about gm job in Tor, however, at the moment NYR aren't granting permission.

They denied permission to Boston so nothing likely to come until after playoffs if at all.
