Food for Thought – 1st Overall?
Micheal A. Aldred | Jun 24, 2010 | Comments 1
Just looking at the information floating around. Mapleleafs twitter releases rumour of "Bozak, Kulemin and Kaberle for 1st overall and high salaried player." That, in itself, is crazy. But I would have called the Phaneuf trade insane if someone had suggested it prior to it happening. Now, Darren Dreger reports that the Florida Panthers are shopping the 15th overall pick (acquired from Boston in the Horton trade) and the Oilers are gunning for it. Could it possibly be that the rumour is correct? With media claiming Burke looks far too comfortable and is interviewing first round prospects, he might have something substantial up his sleeve. Now with the Oilers chasing the 15th overall pick, could it be as a replacement for their 1st overall that could be moved tomorrow to Toronto? With the depth the Oilers have in prospects and 48M tied up on 14 players, alleviating cap and acquiring young talent with Kaberle just might be more than wishful thinking.

Would be great if it happened ,, but then who of the top two would Burkie be interested in??
He always said he wanted someone that can play in league next year , would Taylor or Tyler be able to make that leap??
