Connolly and Steckel are still likely occupying the spots keeping Frattin-Kadri out (I can see them squeezing in Frattin but not Kadri).

I imagine they will need 5 centers with the tightness of the schedule. At least I hope so or the Kadri fanboys will be apoplectic.

No wait that is still 6. Oh well.
 
Good move by Nonis, first trade and is already liked by all fans. Burke who? :sarcasm:

But seriously, so its.. Lebda for Franson + 3rd/4th, thanks Burke.
 
Connolly is being Pejorative Sluredly underrated around here. Obviously he's not worth 5mil a year but what else are we going to spend that cash on? He's a good player and is a great defensive forward. He's a lock to be on the shutdown line imo
 
Good move.

Side note: It's great to think that our first reaction is to sign into hfboards and let other people know; it's a great fanbase. Don't let people say otherwise.

Does that mean no-one ever will score Leafs opening goal of season? :sarcasm:
 
3rd or 4th rounder is a very nice return. good stuff, nonis.

not that it matters too much, but do they take the whole caphit regardless of how much salary we pay? or is the caphit split?

Good question...does anyone know? Hopefully it will be PHO takes the cap hit, but the new CBA allows for monies to be exchanged to facilitate trades like this (ie rich team trades to cap floor teams). But this needs to be confirmed or corrected.
 
There it is. Burke out and Lombo shortly after. Coincidence? Liles, Komi or Connolly next, if they can get value back.
 
If it's conditional he's worth at least a 3rd.

Im hoping its a 2nd if he plays more than 60 games and/or score more than 40 points.

Even though the conditions have already been stated (3rd if he re-signs with PHX), these conditions that you listed are impossible (or next to for the latter) in a shortened season. :laugh:

Sadly Connelly has shown NOTHING to convince us that he still can play in the NHL, let alone be worth one quarter of his salary. He's made of glass, and when healthy shows nothing but indifferent play.
 
Great for Lombardi also. He'll probably have a nice season in PHX and earn a better free agent contract, a lot better than playing bottom six minutes in TO.
 
Either a 3rd or 4th is an absolute steal for Lombardi. He should have had negative value.

I know I'm in the minority but I'd love to see Colton Orr back in our lineup. Would really help to get some of that grit back.

Lombardi provided nothing. Absolutely nothing. At least Orr's presence would put some fear into some guys.

Not at all. We are predicting injury. That is all.

The sad part is he is one of the top 5 players on the team capable of some offence,
