The Toronto Maple Leafs are struggling of late and continue to work the phones trying to find upgrades to their defence and back up goaltender. With the latest reports of Matt Dumba being available from the Minnesota Wild, the two teams could be the match made in heaven the Leafs are looking for.

According to sources the teams have had dialogue around the defenceman, with the Maple Leafs offering the Wild defensive prospect, Timothy Liljegren, forward Andreas Johnsson and defenseman, Cody Ceci. GM, Bill Guerin is believed to be interested in moving Dumba to the east coast.

The Wild are expected to move Dumba to free up some cap space moving forward, as the team is strapped with players on huge contracts, with no-move clauses. Dumba does not have any trade protection.

Look for both teams to be active as we approach the trade deadline and Leafs Nation is pouring out it's hope for a Dumba acquisition, sooner than later.

Pleasssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssse


The would be so freaken awesome!!! I would settle for the proverbial bag of pucks. Just get his worthless ass and bloated salary of the payroll.

Some of their comments are hilariously wrong
They think Dumba is something we know he is not.
Maybe time to strike.

I should have clarified that right away, sorry.
He's an elite talent, as Jeff says, anytime you talk a point a game, my ears perk up.
Doubt they're dumb enough to give him up for our enigma. But please, try …..

That means there are 22 teams he can be traded to. I can't imagine he would reject the idea of playing with Malkin and Crosby.

That system, and those superstars, made Pascal Dupuis a star.
And every other guy who joins them
They plug in guys with ability, and they produce.
I do not like them, but any good player would be an IDIOT to not want to play in that system.

I would imagine he wouldn't mind that at all. And Guerin knows their players well since he just left there. Maybe he can work a good deal for some young talent....

It appears Hellbuyck is becoming DoobieNick the Second.
He's a mess at this point.
Had worried he was "thee" goalie moving forward at one time, that appears derailed, thankfully.
(hey, if we can't figure it out, at least we can hope no one else close to us does, either)

Kirill Kaprizov was the unanimous choice among KHLers as the next big star to come to North America.
Kaprizov was chosen by the other six of the players in the survey. He leads the league with 23 goals and he has provided CSKA Moscow with 46 points in 45 games. Kaprizov could be a member of the Minnesota Wild as soon as next season.

It's been so long since we had a legit star. Modano and Burns are the most recent I can remember and they were North Stars not Wild.

Burns was a Wild player and was traded for Coyle and Setoguchi before he ever became the star he is now.
But I agree that it has been ages since we have had a legit star. To me, it's actually fair to say that Gaborik is the closest the Wild have come to having a star player.

I meant Hatcher. Somehow Burns came out.
