PA Parenteau to STL for Jaden Scwartz would be awesome

Not to be a bummer, but Jaden Schwartz is 23 years old and has scored at a 60-point pace in the NHL since he was 21. Not happening, he's already a significantly better player than PAP.

It would still be awesome, though. :P

I've given up the dream of outtanking the Oilers.  After Edmonton loses again tonight the Leafs will have 4 games in hand on them.  Absolutely no way they finish in 30th.  I can only hope that Bettman fixes the lottery so that the Oilers don't win it.  I don't even care at this point if the Leafs win the lottery, I just don't want the Oilers to win it again.

Honestly at this point I'm worried about our position even in the bottom-3. Buffalo, Calgary, Winnipeg, and Columbus are all pretty close to us in points-percentage. Winnipeg especially scares me. They've lost Ladd and Little, and they're starting Pavelec regularly over 2 superior goalies now that he's healthy again. Granted it's not like we're piling up the points or anything, but even a slight uptick and we'll be in danger.

That's why I really think that the most important guy for the Leafs to find a new home for is Reimer. We need to see a lot of Bernier in the weeks ahead.
 
How much would you add to PAP for a lineup of

Schwartz-Kadri-Nylander
JVR-Bozak-Marner
Michalek-Holland-Laine

Reimer?

The Blues have possibly the best goalie tandem in the league, they have no use for Reimer. There's just no way that PAP would be the main piece in any Schwartz deal. If the Leafs were targeting him for whatever reason they would have to start with a Kadri/JVR/Gardiner. Even then I don't know if the Blues would be inclined to move him.
 
Yeah, short of walking away with a result that drastically improves their ability to win a cup right away I don't see why they'd deal Schwartz at all.
 
so, VanRiemsdyk and Lupul are both done for the season too?

Though one of that tandem is hurt right now.  They'd be more in the looking for a backup situation (which I see Bob McKenzie has just mentioned as well).

Yeah Armstrong said yesterday if they acquire a goalie whoever they get will be destined for the AHL once Elliott gets back, so I doubt they'll be looking for anyone worth more than a 6th or so round pick.

Huh, that Lupul is out as well was news to me.

Lupul has got to be the worst Leaf for injury issues since Coco.

Yeah, Colby Armstrong too although he wasn't a Leaf very long. 
 
Edmonton are playing Buffalo, Columbus and Winnipeg in the near future so there are definitely going to be some points gained by those around us. Here's hoping for some overtime wins.
 
Edmonton won a game?  Against the Islanders!

4 games in hand but the Leafs are back in 30th.
 
Leafs should lose tonight.  Lineup will be bare bones after the last minute trades today.
