Well then Babsariello are being stupid with regard to PK, center of attention takes the pressure off them, it's not a bad thing. If the uppity black man wanted to play for Avs, we'd take him in a heartbeat, because we aren't retarded. PK could help the Leafs, if the price was right, but y'all don't want him, even if it was, so stupid. Maybe things aren't so different in Toronto after all, if their attitude towards the PKs of the world is any indication.

Uppity yet awesome, fuck that, we don't like talent enough, lulz, sounds like same old Leafs to me. You know Doughty is uppity too right, yet y'all would to have him, wonder what the difference is? Both are elite defensemen in their own end, yet have a hell of an offensive kick, why does Toronto love Doughty and hate Subban?

We chose Babsariello, we gots to take all that comes with that, I like PK, but I like Babsariello too, and there is no model where the Leafs can bring in a $9 million dollar defenceman, just doesn't fit under the cap, the Leafs are going to have to go with a moneyball defence, so Babsariello not being conducive to Subby Dooby Mania is fine, because Nashville ain't under any pressure nor do they have any desire to move him and retain half the salary.

I look at Toews and Weber, because if Chicago and Montreal don't move them and retain, they ain't getting their retools done, and Captain Serious and the Big Nasty are two players who Babsariello would make the stretch for, but again, only at half price or something close to it, and not giving up any of the core in return.

So then what's with the clamoring for uppity white guy Drew Doughty, even though he would have to signed to an even more expensive than $9 million deal? Why the PK hate from Toronto sports media? It's not like there is that big of talent gap between the two. I get Doughty is debating leaving LA, while PK seems content in Nashville, but otherwise it makes little sense to want one an not want the other on the team.

I'm not clambering for Drew Doughty, can't afford him, can't afford Doughty nor Karlsson, that's why I see Weber as the more realistic option, because if the Leafs are bringing in an aging number one, it's going to have to be at moneyball prices, and that means they need to find a team with a contract that has to be moved to get out of the ditch, thus, Weber is the target, at $4.85 million or thereabouts.

Well if Bergevin gives the Leafs a cheap subsidized Weber, that would make sense given he's a complete moron and the most fleeceable sucker GM to come along in years, as Poile and Yzerman can attest to. Might as well take a shot, if you are sticking with the moneyball defense strategy, that is.

Montreal is fucked if they don't move that contract, they're not close to contending, they've gone out and signed Alzner and they've given the moon to Price, they got no centers, they got no prospects of note, and they are cap locked as it is with all the overpriced forwards, and the Weber contract gets exponentially worse as it goes, it's the same as Toews, the player can be an effective roll player on an up and coming contender, but they won't get those contracts off the books without retaining half the salary, Toews would come to play for Babs, so would Weber, the NTC's have to be signed of on, Toronto is the salvation, otherwise, they're going to be stuck with those contracts, and if they leave it much longer, the window to move them is going to close.

Play Weber like Boston plays Chara, play Toews like Anaheim plays Getzlaf, at money ball prices, it's worth the stretch.

Yet more reasons why trading Subban for Weber was batshit insane. Now they have to move him and have to eat some of that contract on top of it to sweeten the pot, what a dumb motherfucker that Bergevin is.

The Leafs are in a position to pick that carcass clean, bear in mind, Weber ain't going anywhere he doesn't want to go, the Leafs is one of the few places he would go, so Lou has Bergevin over a barrel, if Bergevin comes to his senses, they ain't getting Nylander, but they could get out from under half that contract, and get a first, and a couple prospects, which, realistically, is the best they're gonna get.
