New Jersey might move Zajac: Should the Leafs inquire?
leafy writes "Okay, here's the deal. Now that the Ilya Kovalchuk contract situation with New Jersey has been resolved, the Devils need to shed around $3.5 to 4 million off their total payroll.
To achieve this goal, there are several published reports that GM Lou Lamoriello wants to move C Travis Zajac."

The Leafs, though, will pull every lever to correct their inadvertent largesse, sprinkle some water over their draft-less desert. While Burke won’t confirm it, Toronto aims to parlay Tomas Kaberle into a first-round pick and top-six forward. As if. But that will be the price tag for the veteran defenceman, otherwise Kaberle goes nowhere.

Whats Next in Leafland
Peca4PM writes "Burkie has yet again managed to bring i a high level player and took nobody in the organization under the age of 25 and no draft picks to do it.
I find that and the fact the Dion is 24 and Aullie will also be an NHL d man is only 20, make the trade very positive for the leafs moving forward. The fact is on a team with legitimate offensive players, Stajan Hagman and White will produce like the third line centre, second line winger and 4-6 D man that they are. Somebody HAD to score some goals for the leafs, and so the guys getting PP minutes and getting first line and top pairing ice time were the guys to do it. I am not saying these players cannot be useful parts of a winning team, but their stats are greatly inflated playing on such a poor offensive team. "

With the trade deadline approaching, a number of pending free agents to be dealt with and a team making a series of starts and stops at the bottom of the standings, Leafs GM Brian Burke wants stability for his players.
GoLeafsGo12 writes "There has been much discussion this season about the requirement of the Blackhawks to clear cap space for the 2010 season, but we all know that Stan Bowman is reluctant to make a blockbuster trade now to reduce cap space IF it is going to reduce his teams chances of playoff success NOW.
With that being said, I think that I have a potential trade that works for both Chicago and the Leafs... "

Peter Mueller to Leafs?
glotz_99 writes "The Phoenix Coyotes remain on the lookout for a veteran defenseman, but the blueline isn't the only area the club is concerned about. Coyotes GM Don Maloney has been searching for a new rearguard for several weeks. With more than $27 million in available cap space, the Coyotes have more than enough room to add players, but their confusing ownership situation may prevent them from making key acquisitions. Up front, Maloney wouldn't mind adding another top-six goal-scorer and it has been widely reported that young center Peter Mueller could be made available.

Leafs in talks with Tampa, but for Leacavalier?
93killer93 writes "Apparently a source inside the Leafs organization has said Burke is making a serious push for Lecavalier. However he feels Kaberle and Blake would have to be moved in order to properly fit him under the cap. Although this is very unlikely it could possibly happen. Tampa is under financial trouble and probably like to get his big contract off his hands where as if it's 1 thing the Leafs have it is money.

Kenny878 writes "As a long time TML fan I have come to notice every year Toronto pushes for a playoff spot until around the trade deadline when they give up. This year I was hoping to grab IMO one of the best forwards in the draft. Brayden Schenn. However draft day came as a dissapointment. No disrespect to Nazem Kadri. But by not being able to draft Schenn. Why not trade for him? I think one of your "lesser Defensmen" packaged with something could bring Brayden to the blue and white.
