Burke is saying he wants Tavares, and is trying to trade up to get him, well to get to the top of that list from 7th he'll have to give up a ton and I dont think Toronto has enough to give to get him. Unless it involves Schenn, 7th pick, Kaberle a top prospect (if they even have one) or some more picks...I say no deal. Unless he can get to 2 and flip that for one, but I think Tampa needs Hedman bad, so I doubt they'd pass on getting him and NY needs Tavares badly, that team is dying. To bad for Burke that Milbury isnt in charge anymore otherwise he could get him for a cheese sandwich and a coffee.

That is so true! :lol:
ya, I think that the Islanders have pretty much screwed up for over a decade now. They can't pass up on a kid like Tavares. The fans (or at least the ones they have left) would kill them. I think they resigned Dougie Weight to help mold this kid next year.
Burke would have to offer Shenn, Justin Pogge, Kaberle, Christian Hanson, several picks, and Grabovsky....and that still wouldn't be enough I don't think!
No, I think that Burke will have more luck in the free agent pool, maybe going after some of his former Ducks or Canucks.
