By adding a Brewer and a Horton, I can't help but think the plan is to recreate the defense corps from the 1964-65 Maple Leafs team.

Maybe a couple more can be acquired before draft day after the playoffs are over.
Yep, I'm expecting more moves around then.
I mean really at this point can the Leafs go in to next season with Lupul, Bozak, Phanuef and Kessel on this team?
I can't see it.
Of those four, I think Phaneuf and Kessel need to go before next season. They both symbolize what's wrong with the current Leafs, while still having potential value for other teams. Phaneuf does seem to care and is a good but overpaid and miscast defenseman. Kessel has tons of talent but his attitude seems to have slipped. Both will be too old when the rebuild is complete.
Bozak and Lupul aren't part of the future either, but I think their importance and the urgency of moving them is secondary.
Nonis has done well in ridding the Leafs of the Clarkson albatross, but if he's to make a case for himself being Leaf GM through the rebuild, he needs to prove it by getting maximum value for those two players.
You can make the case nonis or burke are good with trades; but neither was good at drafted. That is what has f'd up the leafs. The only picks that have made the team are the first rounders. And some of those have been bombs too. Other organizations have got more quality players in the draft that past few years. Leafs need better draft to improve out of a basement dwelling team.
Darryl said:Brewer, Horton.. If Paul Coffey wasn't retired I'd think this team was working on a strange marketing plan with Tim Hortons.
At least then we could roll up the rim to win. As it is I am concussed and awaiting to be traded to someplace out west for little to no return.
