last year aside, he scored 25 and 21 goals the 2 years before that. Try him on the 2nd line, if he gets going he could be a big solid 2nd line player

523 goals - 29th all time
1238 pts - 34th all time

At the age of 35 he scored over a point per game last season. Name 30 centres who did that and I'll call him a number 2.

What about Raycroft and Kubina/McCabe to the Devils for Elias?

They desperately need someone on defense. I don't know what the Devils goaltending future looks like, but if there was someone for Raycroft to learn from, it might as well be the best goalie of all time.

I think the salaries would be pretty even as well.

First off, i am not a fan of Blake, but the more i think about it the more i like it. This offseason the Leafs have turned themselves from a hard team to play against, into a very hard team to play against. As much as people complain, the Leafs needed a guy who can put the puck in the net. Blake is another player who doesn't mind getting a little dirty, and he can finish. I'd like to see a Bertuzzi deal go down, and maybe move Raycroft, and Kubina/McCabe.

Blake           Sundin            Bert.
Antro            Welly              Poni
Tucker           Bell               Steen
Kilger           Stajan             Devereaux

This team would not be very fun to play against.

I am not sure why people are so negative about every move this organization make, yes they have made some poor decisions in the past but to me both Toskala and Blake are the better moves under the current circumstances. I am 100% sure that JFJ is not done as yet and he is definitely going to move a defenceman and Razor before Season opener. I do believe this is going to be a better team compared to the teams we had in past two years they are going to make the playoff for sure.

Trade Rayzor and sign Nagy 3.5 and sign CUJO

Nagy-Sundin-Blake
Antro-Wellwood-Tucker
Bell-Steen-Poni
Kilger-Stajan-Pohl

Kaberle-Kubina
Colaiacovo-McCabe
White-Gill

Toskala
Cujo

That has the scoring and the defence to get us to the play-offs and the grit to get us through them!
