And Wendel's last year he was without a contract mid season and the Leafs signed him for his third go round with the team, and he got to retire a leaf and played really great in the playoffs that year.

I love Wendel Clark.

to clarify, he’s hardly “just a name player,” he’s a star.

No you’re wrong, he’s just as good now as he was 3 years ago, he’s hardly a name player, if you watch him play and see how much he dominates on most nights you never would have written that. Period.

The only reason they would trade is if they were somehow managed to be 12th place or lower a couple days before the deadline. If not, do not trade him. If JFJ wants to rebuild at that point then he should. Look what the Flyers got for injury prone Forsberg. The Leafs could get elite prospects and a couple first rounders, notice the plurals. I doubt however they would trade him because he is the heart of this team, but anything could happen, look at Ryan Smyth

Its still waaaaay too early to be considering this stuff. A lot of people are already burying the Rangers and we still have 70 games left to play. Calm down.

If Sundin is going to be dealt, it's going to be at the deadline, where he will fetch the biggest return. IF he is dealt, and its definitely no guarantee, I hope that Leafs fans are appreciative of the service he has given their team. He is not the reason the Leafs haven't been able to win the Cup. He's been one of the brightest spots of the Maple Leafs franchise over the years. Pure class, and an excellent all-around player. There are a lot of teams that would line up for his services.

Finally someone who seems to know hockey. Well put and the reasons for hardly any critics or comments is because you make sense. The Leafs played an excellent game last night holding the high power Pens to only 22 shots, funny how a tweak here and there can turn a team around. I just hope the Rangers scoring doesn't explode on the Leafs. GO LEAFS GO!!!

Good prediction, we got that win last night and it was impressive holding Pitts to 22 shots. I am also a believer that they will turn it around. People make them out to be the worst team in the NHL, but hey they still sit .500 and have played most of the games against the predicted contenders, even Atlanta was predicted to finish 3rd or 4th in the East. I hope the same team shows up against NYR, it would be a huge win for confidence.

My whole point behind my comment was that Toronto isn't as bad as other teams are right now and there is still lots of time left to turn it around. With them sitting in fourth it was just an example as to how bad other teams are doing. Anyway they won the game last night and sit in 5th, I know they've played the most games and many at home, but .500 is really not that bad considering everyone makes them out to be the worst in the league. I still believe my Leafs will make the playoffs, I also believe your Habs will too. Let the games begin.

Sundin is worth two markov's…or at least one and a half…LOL

12th or 13th not 23rd!

Although 23rd over all works too
