To SJ: Lombardi + Kulemim + 2nd

Leafs get a borderline #1 centre (cause Connolly is never healthy) but still a big upgrade on Bozak, Connolly, JVR, Kadri. Sharks upgrade their bottom 6 and 3rd line depth with Kulemin and Lombardi can step into Pavelskis spot.

I like both deals.

But, change the 1st to anything else. No 1st rounders.

And exactly how does this change the current Leafs' goaltending issues by trading for another young, unproven, potential #1?

Small correction: Bergeron was number 2 last year ( arguably number 1 since Toews missed so many games ). Pavelski was third.

Towes - 59.4
Bergeron - 59.3
Pavelski - 58.7

You realize how bad the leafs are and thats a likely top 10 pick. Im no leaf fan but id feel real bad for them if that trade were to go down. Reimer has accomplished more in the NHL than Bernier

Again if u have read everything i ve said you would know i have made the offer to protect them should it be a top 9 pick the leafs would keep it and kings get there next frist in 14 and again Yes maybe he has but hes had the opportunity to play where bernier has been playing once a month on average. If you play bernier more regular his stats would improve and show why hes a better goalie.

I would do it if we were able to receive Tyler Biggs. This would allow players like Nolan, King, Clifford and soon so be in the line up Andreoff to move up on the big club and still have big skilled boddies developing in the minors
