I haven’t heard it yet, but apparently Damien Cox made some rather interesting comments (surely a first) on Prime Time Sports at some point last week.

Sportsnet is saying that Brian Burke met with Scott Howson in New York earlier today. They also speculate that a trade between the Leafs and Columbus could involve James Reimer. If the Leafs can get Nash and give up any combination (including all of) Kulemin, Schenn, Kadri, and/or Reimer, you make this trade without thinking. . . . → Read More: More Rick Nash I hate using the term “sweepstakes”.
