Proposed Leafs/Sabres

[SFD22]

TO TOR: Jay McKee + Alexei Zhitnik

TO BUF: Tomas Kaberle + Richard Jackman

Buffalo has been unhappy w/ McKee's play and Zhitnik is a soon-to-be UFA, they get players in return that fit more with the age of their core. The Leafs on the other hand get Zhitnik to eat up a ton of ice time on the top pairing w/ Klee and McKee teams up w/ McCabe.

As a Leaf fan, I love it....gives Toronto the depth on defence that we need...

But I think that Buffalo overpays a bit, and because I don't think Buffalo fans are sold on Jackman yet, even though his strong season start could prove he's a good 5th/6th defenceman....

You would probably have to add a mid-pick/prospect from Toronto to start the trade talks...

McKee's out 2-6 weeks with a sprained knee ligament

If Regier went for this, the Sabres would have the absolute worst defensive unit in the league bar none...defensively speaking that is.

Stajan and Coliacovo are the FUTURE for the Leafs. Who else do they have?

No thanks as far as the Leafs go

Ruff has benched McKee and Zhitnik is a UFA

I'm not a big Jackman fan but still we need to get younger not older. Not interested

Just so you're aware, there's a difference between benching a player because he shouldn't be in the lineup, and benching a player to light a fire underneath him...

Alexander Steen, Mikael Tellqvist, Max Kondratiev, Nikolai Antropov, etc...

There's a few good young players in the organization, not as much as other teams, but it's not that bad.

with a healthy McKee, I do this in a second as a Leaf fan.
