florida is the last place i'd sundin,antropov and a first rounder. Why would you do that trade because of jokinen? not worth all of that and horton and zednik are crap. i'd send it to san jose for thornton and carle.

Great article. I love Nik Antropov. He's the best. When I got my Antropov jersey a couple years ago everyone chirped me, but not I get lots of compliments, people are still coming around to him but the more he plays great, the more everyone realizes how talented this guy really is.

I think Blake wants to stay with Wellwood tho because of his play making capabilities, thats what I heard on TV anyway. They just need a guy like Poni or Bell who can grind it out in the corners and give that line more room to work.

Completely agreed. Also, they could put Poni on the 2nd line (even though he's doing well on the 1st) and move Wellwood to the 1st line.

The 2nd line could be Blake-Poni-Bell or Devereaux.

the line is too small. Tucker should be replaced with Bell and thrown on the 4th line untill he picks up his play

Antropov has been excellent all season. He and Sundin are carrying this team right now.

Too bad the smaller guys like Wellwood, Blake and Tucker aren't playing as effectively. If the second line played better, the Leafs would be a force.

If fans truly like Antropov and would like to keep him around then do not vote for him for the all star game. When it comes time to resign him he can use the all star game as leverage to increase his salary, and yes the all star game will make a difference.
