@davemoosehead The Leafs put an offer to Richards like 10 or so teams around the league, was there a bidding war for him that im not aware of? no there wasn`t Toronto didn`t front end load the contract like New York did, besides was it even in question where he was going everyone knew he was going to NY to play for Torts and have the chance to dissapear into obscurity like every other play that goes there, cough cough Gomez, Drury
@davemoosehead lmao you don`t get what I said, your so cute, I said was there a bidding war that occured for Richards that i wasn`t aware of, no there was no bidding war, back and forth between teams. Lmao idiot.
@davemoosehead And if you know, Burke is very public about how he doesn`t like front end loading contracts, Toronto could have offered alot more money sure, but Burke didn`t want to handcuff the team for a decade with a 30 year old. I never said anything about Richards in my comment.
@iLuvBarRefaeli you said "The Leafs could get anyone they want in the FA." They wanted Richards and didn't get him. Therefore, your original claim is inaccurate. Not sure why you're having trouble grasping this simple concept. Let me know when Toronto does anything relevant.
@davemoosehead Yes they could have you illiterate moron, like I said before, seems like you have selective reading, IF Brian Burke FRONT END LOADED the contract Toronto whould have had a better chance, but Burke did not do that, NY on the other hand did and when I posted the comment I wasn`t even thinking about richards, because i believed his is too old and not worth hancuffing the team for a decade. Why do you care so much about the Leafs anyways if your a hater anyways, nothing better to do
@iLuvBarRefaeli Sounds like you are just making excuses to try and cover your original statement. Burke didn't want to pay Richards as much as NY did (up front or otherwise). Therefore, he lost the bidding war. That is just 1 example. If Toronto really could "get any FA they want," then their team would look much better than it does right now. I get that you are just sticking up for your team, but stop being ignorant. I pretty much agree with everything you said except for your very first post.
He's no stranger to mistakes. Murray Baron. Dan Cloutier. The laundry list goes on and on. A team like Toronto deserves a GM like Burke. They both get the most attention, but both of them suck at what they do!
I don't think so do the habs have enough cap space? the Sedins where only good with the canucks and plus do you think it be good for montreal because they have only won 3 playoffs series in 8 years.
but again do you Habs fan want 2 swedes that have only won 3 playoffs series in 8 years. Vancouver already signed him and i don't think montreal was on the list of the sedins if they where gonna move.
probably be getting Chris Neal. Brian Burke had made clear that he likes the though player and the gritty ones like Chris Neal hes been pretty good in my mind.
The Leafs could get anyone they want in the FA, no team could match them in a bidding war.
