Significant Offer for Kaberle (TSN)

“Sources tell TSN the Toronto Maple Leafs have received what the team considers to be a significant offer for defenceman Tomas Kaberle.

There are few details available, however the offer arrived unexpectedly Thursday afternoon and is believed to be from one of the teams who may have been in the hunt, trying to acquire the negotiating rights to Florida’s Jay Bouwmeester.

Toronto had originally intended on holding on to Kaberle until after the July 1 free agent frenzy in hope of attracting a better package from a team that wasn’t able to land a free agent defenceman.

Sources say the Leafs are seriously considering the offer while waiting to see what other interest materializes in the coming hours.”

-Darren Dreger.

Side Note: Toronto also in the running for Ryan Clowe according to TSN.

    The comment section keeps fuckin up in my FireFox browser. Need to use IE.

    Apparently it is being reported now:
    To TOR
    Phil Kessel, 25th pick overall
    To BOS
    Tomas Kaberle, 7th pick overall
    .
    I still don’t like the idea of including our 7th overall pick…

  • paso

    does anyone actually realize that Alec had this kabs to bruins for either kessell/colborne rumor days ago? this site now has the #1 credibility imo for rumors on the net. btw, shit deal for the leafs

  • Dan

    Note – that is the revised offer above ^^^ Burke is still considering options

  • CarltontheBear

    Even if Boston includes their first I still wouldn’t deal our first and Kaberle for Kessel. Any trade to be had for Kessel should not include our first.

  • Wendel

    That revised offer doesn’t revise my opinion much – still not a good deal. #7 pick should not be even mentioned in any deal for Kessel.

  • CarltontheBear

    How about this counteroffer,

    Grabovski for Chara and the 25th pick

    Makes about as much sense.

  • the_cause2000

    @ Dan – That’s not being reported, I just made it up 5 posts earlier…

  • JMAC

    Ekland is reporting the offer has been confirmed as Kabs for Kessel straight up

  • the_cause2000

    Do it!!

  • Jonas Tavarrsson

    Is it gay that Kessle for Kaberle + Boston’s first is giving me a bone?

  • Paynter Graham

    mlfor life – If the Leafs make that deal with Boston – let me know when the riot starts. I will join you! KESSELL – NO FREAKIN’ WAY!
    Jay – like you say the Philly offer is great – but the Atlanta deal – how do you pass it up? One of the two!

  • Dan

    I think we can get more.
    .
    We’re not going to trade a proven vet d-man for Kessel’s RFA rights… who might not even sign with us.
    .
    Kessel + 25th overall.
    .
    Get it done Burkey!

  • Dan

    CHiarelli needs to realize his window is now… and chances of a 25th overall pick developing into an impact player within that window is not-likely.
    .
    While Kabby may push them over the top and go for the Cup.

    Throw in their first and joe colbiurne

  • BlueBudBC

    Is this correct on the front page?

    Title: MLHS Draft Day ’09

    Date: Friday June 26, 2009
    Time: 5:00PM EDT

    I thought the draft started at 7 EDT?

  • Paynter Graham

    BlueBudBC – as far as I know it is 7:00 EDT. Tomorrow catch all the draft on the NHL network = I believe staring at 10:00 A.M. Eastern
