Ive said it before and ill say it again, Staffan Kronwall is not THAT good, everyone who thinks or has heard hes amasing are mixing him up with his brother who plays in detroit. Just becose his brother is good doesnt mean HE is.

Look at these brother pairings, one is a superstar and the other is relatively a nobody

-Sergei/Fedor Federov
-Paul/Yan Stastny
-Saku/Mikko Koivu (Miko is finally starting to pan out tho)
-Marian/Marcel Hossa (marcel is a NHL player but nowere near his brothers caliber)
-Pavel/Valeri Bure

Lastly not to mention Carlo Colaiacovo has a identical TWIN brother who played goalie but was never good enough to even be drafted.

Stop getting brothers mixed up, just cose one is good DOES NOT mean the other is also.

JFJ did a good job this off-season getting Mark Bell, Vesa Toskala and Jason Blake. In order to say JFJ had a great off-season he has to make this trade happen

To Tampa: Kubina, Raycroft. Stajan

To Leafs: St. Louis

This could happen because Tampa has said that there are looking for a #1 defencman and a #1 goalie, which Kubina and Raycroft are, aswell Stajan would get them that seconday scoring that they most certainly need. While the Leafs get some more scoring to play beside Sundin. i understand that he has a no trade clause but once a teams asked you to lift it, you know your not wanted so why stay. If this trade does happen we could sign CUJO. If the Leafs get St. Louis, there is not a team in the NHL that is better than the Leafs. The only reason why we wouldnt be cup contenders is because we are the Leafs

GO LEAFS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree that the Leafs have a lot of depth players and right now Bell is just one of those guys like Kilger, Pohl, Bates, etc. The only reason we got Bell is because he was the key to the Toskala deal. I'm sure many teams called San Jose about him and made similar offers as the Leafs did. The willingness to take Bell's contract was the reason we got Toskala. The Leafs really don't need this guy, but if he is the difference of having Toskala or not having Toskala, I would take him any day.

Tucker could have been a 30-40 goal scorer had he not have been injured. Is Bell a better player then say Kilger, Pohl, Bates, and/or dev? If last season is any indication then no yet he makes 2 mil and the leafs are stuck with him anyone one who trades for him will want a similar deal as the samsanov deal so basically the leafs will have to give something up just to get rid of this salary. Or Bell becomes a good second line player and becomes comeback player of the year, we’ll see.

okay maybe my post didn't come off the way I intended it to. I'm not saying late round picks can't become great players you've guys have already proveed that not that it was a big secret. Teams are lucky to find one or two good late round players so what makes people think that the leafs have found all these awesome finds in the late round. Sure its possible but I like the chances of Kane becoming a prominent nhler then the chance of Dale Mitchel. I think a more successful off season for JFJ would have been to stick with there 1st rounder and grab Cherpnov or Esposito get Blake and bring in a goalie that could push for a starter position like Auld or Norraen(SP, old Buffalo/Vancouver goalie playing in europe).

Did you plagiarize this one too?

A few days ago you posted a blog on this site called "Leaf's Practicle Rumors"

I wonder where you got that from? I can tell you. Right here.
