i agree that a trade is necessary but i don't think JFJ will do it now.

this is another opportunity for the young D-guys to step up and prove that they can outlplay Khavanov even though they are rookies (Coliacovo, Kronvall). but this opens a spot up for another D-guy.

yes Brown is available but I'd like to see if Woz could play for the leafs (or even Harrison).

Haha, anything is better than having a rookie back there. I agree though, if this is a short-term injury they will just call up Harrison, Woznieuski or Brown. But if this injury is for a somewhat lengthy period of time, I would expect a trade considering McCabe is already on the shelf.

Does Brown have to clear waivers? I think there might be some injury issues with him as well so I think Jay Harrison would be a more likely call up. Could be kinda rough having three rookie defencemen in the lineup though. But I guess it’s better than having Belak back there.

They might not have to make a trade, don’t forget about free agent signing Brad Brown who could fill in short term with the big club.
