Gary Leeman revisted? Lets assume Sundin is willing to resign, Calgary would have no cap room to do so. Substitute Antropov for Tucker and maybe its possible.

What about a blockbuster from trader Cliff:

Sundin, Kaberle, and Tucker to Calgary for Phaneuf, Boyd, and a cond. 1st rd pick that goes to the Leafs if Sundin resigns in Calgary.

it's always that way with the leafs fans!there players are the best in the league and nobody else has anything so that's why it's one sided!1personally carey price31 we as habs fans can watch our team offer better stuff which we have and they think what we are offering is garbage and most g.m.'s when they talk trade with gainey are asking for price,kovalev,the kositisyn brothers and our defenceman prospects and picks as where they have sundin who i admit is there best assestand they'll get a good return for him but therest of there guys they think are great and are worth anything .but in there eyes they can get all this stuff!!…….if that's the case then why didn't they do it?like for i.e there offering raycroft in these packages ask yourself if you were a g.m would you give them anything even 7-8th r.d. picks no!!if teams are going to give up stuff they want quality not raycroft ,or blake,tucker,kubina!.but you know leafs fans they live in a fantasy world!!

Keep it simple, a 1st round pick and a top prospect or good young player (ie Hudler) or find a way to package a bad contract with Mats, like McCabe and Sundin for Marleau.

The Leafs should either restock the farm system, in which case take back no contracts for Mats or package trade Mats with alongside a bad contract to free up space.

We're most likely stuck with Kubina, Blake, Tucker and McCabe for 2-3 years, lets spend those years at the bottom of the standings are rebuild through the draft. Ideally the goal should be Tavares next year. A leafs team without Sundin should be bad enough to accomplish this end.

All of those trades are too one sided for the Leafs except for the one with LA, I would not want any of those LA players and I would certainly not want to give up Mats for them. No way we get Staal and Letang though, I can see Sundin for Staal straight up, and Sundin for Letang and a 1st but no way can we can both in 1 trade. The Tanguay one is probably the most realistic and even for both the teams, I would definatly do that one. I like the Philly one too. The LA one just confuses me, the Kings are probably going to finish last and the Leafs wont be far ahead, Nagy is overrated, Blake is overpaid and Modry isnt that great, if they are going to trade Blake it wont be for another vet. The Florida one is no good, I would take Weiss and a 1st but that trade makes no sense.
