Leafs make offer for #1 pick

[DR STRANGELOVE]

this comes from a very reliable contact of mine

To Tampa Bay: Matt Stajan, Pavel Kubina, Jiri Tlusty, Tyler Ruegsegger, 2nd in 08 (Pit)

To Toronto: 1st overall (Stamkos), Tyrell

I doubt TB will go for it, but this is an offer fletcher has thrown to them. No word on their response.


If Toronto drafts 7th, look for them to take local kid Hodgson. Scouts like him a lot.

As a Leafs fan, born in '68 (groan), sign me up.
I'll take it.
Leafs need some kinda miracle to occur to save the next 5-10 years.

I missed the lottery draft (uh-oh! ) and didn't know TBay scored it.
I'd be stunned if they went for the trade, too.

A reason for unreasonable hope, however.
thanks

When i read this, the 1st thing i thought about was "Can you imagine the pressure this young man will face playing in T.O?" He wouldn't be able to take a shit without someone else knowing about it." Sheer lunacy
