the talk has been that the Islanders are interested in Dion Phaneuf. Some have speculated that they have made the Leafs a substantial offer but Toronto feels it isn`t nearly enough. a lot of Leaf fans wnat Phaneuf gone so what kind of offer have the Islanders offered and how much more would it take to get the deal done?

Yeah you wish even if snow crazy he won't pickup phaneuf he ain't a def that you want in you're team is pAid like a top 2but is more a top 4

If it's true:

De Haan, Nielsen, Mayfield OR Lee + mid pick in 2015

Probably an overpayment, but it would be Garth Snow making the deal

Phaneuf is a top 2 but is paid like a legit #1 just like how Subban is a legit #1 but is paid like generational player

Just because someone gets paid too much doesn't mean he's someone you don't want on your team. NY can afford him and he would be a great addition to any team. Montrealsfinest you show your true colors once again. Only Montreal players are worth having on your team.

Toronto won't let Phaneuf go without a very good piece coming back (Reinhart maybe?) and Nonis doesn't care if people think Phaneuf is overpaid, he IS Toronto's best d-man.

So Hockey'sGodsGift wants to trade:

De Haan- Young d-man who showed last year he is top 4 material and played very well with Hamonic

Nielsen- A solid #2 C, who plays very good 2 way Hockey.

Mayfield- a big imposing d-man, probaly 1 year away from being ready.

Draft Pick.

This is a huge over payment for Phanuef. Multiple reports have the Isles offering a 2nd rd pick and Bailey if they take all of Phanuefs salary, or 2 2nd rd picks if Toronto retains salary. That is where their offer stands, and it will not increase substantially.

Thanks for the response, but I did say it would probably be an overpayment. that's what Garth does. Also, if your proposed trades go down, Toronto only has 5 NHL roster defencemen so I doubt that report was accurate. Hamonic or de Haan would most likely be the centerpiece for a Phaneuf deal considering defense is a not so solid area of the Leafs.

Believe if Phaneuf is dealt, Leafs will be all in on a deal for Keith Yandle
So: Phaneuf - Islanders - Bailey, 2nd rd pick
Kadri, 2nd rd. pick ( fr-Ilanders ) to Phoenix for Yandle.
