all via twitter:

First Lebrun said:
Leafs source on trade talks: "Things are heating up"

Darren Dreger:
"Offers remain for Kaberle and it's expected they'll improve tonight, but Leafs source says there is no deal imminent at this stage."

Lebrun:
"Burke just met with media. Said he's got "four concrete offers" for Kaberle and expects two more tonight. But added, "nothing imminent" yet"

retweeted by Spectors hockey:
"BBurke on Kaberle talks: Four firm offers, two more coming, expressions of interest in the double digits, nothing that interests him so far."

Lebrun:
"I believe Buffalo and LA to be among the many teams with some interest in Kaberle..."

also...

Do you guys think it will happen? Do you want it to happen.
I'm really neutral on it because I think Myers is our PP QB next year. He had more goals and almost as many assists as Kaberle as a rookie.
Kaberle had 7 goals and 49 points, and Myers had 11 goal 48 points. We need a tough defensive defenseman. I say whatever happens happens.
I'll use the Neutral smiley... :| :| :| :| :|

I doubt that Burke wants Connolly or even Stafford. He'd take a high draft pick, but Kaberle sucks defensively and is over paid for what he does. I don't want Kaberle regardless, and I don't think Myers will be a PP QB for a while, if ever. Myers will produce more just because he's that much of a talent and better 5-on-5. Burke is trying to over value Kaberle and get some stupid GM to overpay, but nobody will make a move until Kaberle's no trade is lifted next week.

And Dr.K, how do you know there's no pressure to move Connolly or Roy? And what makes you such a smart fuck...because you post on a fucking forum? Why don't you post a well reasoned trade or UFA signing plan for the summer, or is it that much easier to only comment from the peanut gallery where you belong?

My feelings on Kaberle are mixed. He is good at offense, and can show Myers how to be a good PP QB. However, his defensive abilities are not that great and he's on a decline as far as his career goes. Let's see what happens. I'd rather we make a play for Lombardi in the FA market and move Connolly to Florida for the 15th pick and maybe see if we can't get Ballard in that deal. Then we can have Myers, who is fairly dependable in both ends and a quality center in Lombardi to replace Connolly. As for a big RW for the first line, I haven't devised that part yet in this idea of mine. That's all my own idea though. Will it happen, who knows?

That's a pretty strong statement. Just saying. Imho, he will be a good PP guy. Vision is key, and he certainly has it. A decent shot? yes. Passing? Sure. Not sure why you think he is far from being a pp guy, especially considering no one else we have is worth a shit out there.

Lombardi would be good but we're trying to get stronger down the middle. Lombardi is 6'0, and less then 200 lbs...And Connolly for the 15th overall pick?! Yeah, right! We would have to give a lot more to get that pick.

Not when you consider Tallon is shopping the pick willingly and has openly stated he is looking for an offensive player. Connolly still had 65 points, including that point streak that was like 16 games or something. The deal could probably use some tweaking. Throw in a prospect like Gerbe (as much as I do like him) and like our 2nd rounder for the 15th and Ballard.

Burke also said that he wants a top 6 scoring winger and it would be nice if he had size.

I wonder if Burke would be more interested in Pominville than Stafford+.....

I know Kaberle isn't the defensive piece he's made out to be and that many of you disagree with me but man getting someone like him in here is the shake up (IMO) that we need. I feel strongly that we are a great team but things have gotten stagnant with the "build from within" mentality on our defensive front. None of our guys in the pipe really excite me. Regardless if it's Kaberle or not I hope we make a splash for someone with a bigger name to help Myers because even though Tyler is our best D he's too young to lead the blue liners yet.

(Off-topic) That last line right there is the evidence people need to see to know that Doughty is better than Myers. Doughty IS old enough to lead a defense corps and he's two months older than Myers. Fuck me, imagine if they didn't switch picks and wanted Myers over Teubert. They'd have Doughty, Myers, AND Johnson as their top three and all are under 25. Fuuuck.

Whoever trades for Kaberle will probably get ripped off. I hope Buffalo isn't involved in this one!

Does the NHL Charter mention anything about abducting another team's player? If not, I think this is what we should be aiming for...

I'm glad no-one traded for Kaberle I bet Burke's asking price for him was too much. I don't think he's worth more than a second rounder. For now this slows Burke involvement to get a pick in the first.
