Coming from jabs fan leafs should add a bit.

$5.6 mill a year for a 34 year old RW for two more years? Easy pass.

I like it. Would love to see Dumba on the Leafs. Would be willing to absorb that contract for Dumba.

I would take a veteran leader like that for sure we can't have a line up of kids.

Wouldn't two years be the perfect term? Seems like a good fit to me. Easy way for the Leafs to get a young RHD.

I think Minnesota says no because this trade doesn't solve their expansion issues since JVR requires protection. So if JVR takes over Pominville's spot on the list going 7-3-1. Then Minnesota will lose one of Brodin/ Scandella. Assuming they protect Suter, Spurgeon and one of those 2. Then if they go 8-1 to protect all D-men then they will lose a quality forward and can't protect all their key forwards.

8-1 with this would be all 4 Dmen I mentioned and JVR, Parise, Koivu, Niderietter. Thus they lose one of Granlund, Staal, Zucker, Coyle, Haula. I'm not sure if the last two are expansion exempt. Therefore, Minnesota would be looking for exempt assets.

They'd just lose Scandella or give something to Vegas to pick someone else, which IMO wouldn't have to be very much.

Lol VB. Two others years at 5 million for a 50-60 point scorer is so bad hey.
