Leafs lost 8-4 to Florida last night who are now closing in on Toronto. Worse than the loss was that Morgan Reilly (best d-man) broke a bone in his foot and is gone about 8 weeks (2 months). Is this an opportunity for the Wings to deal Mike Green to Toronto to fill that void. The Leafs play an offensive up tempo game which Green should be able to handle. Green is experienced and can skate.
Question is : what does Yzerman ask in return.
I say ask for a lot. The Leafs (if they slump without Reilly at all) are in danger of becoming a wild card team and will have no chance of getting home ice advantage. The Wings always paid a high price for a veteran. It's time to reap some rewards now that the roles have changed.

Now is the time to dangle Mike Green or Trevor Daley in front of them

Make it a take or leave it deal of Green, Daley, Nielesn, Ab-duh-kader, Ericsson, Filppula, Howard etc all for a used puck bag in return, dangle AA for a player. This is improvement by subtraction...

Just had to list this link and it involves the Leafs. www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/emergency-goalie-david-ayres-becomes-social-media-hero/So, the Leafs and Canes both have 72 pts and both are fighting for a playoff spot and it could be the wildcard. Canes starting goalie can't play at the last minute and Mzarek (former Wing) gets the nod and he gets run over by a 4th line Leaf player. The Canes get a power play but now have the Zamboni driver for the leafs minor league team ( Toronto Marlies) as the Amateur back up goalie. The Canes are up 4-1 when the Leafs score two goals on this 42 year old back up on two shots nearing the end of the 2nd period when the change to him was made so it's 4-3 going into the 3rd and surely the Leafs will score at least 5 goals on this guy. The Canes told him during the 2nd intermission to just relax and don't worry about it but he responds that the jitters are gone and he plans to win this game. Canes outwork the Leafs in the 3rd and win 6-3 and the amateur back up gets a star selection. Imagine, this unknown guy is told to get dressed and play more than a period in a crucial NHL game for the Canes and comes out with a win. This guy has more wins than Howard since mid October. Jimmy H is 0-19-2 in that time frame. To any Leaf fans out there. I think you can forget about planning the parade route down Yonge Street this year. |
