The Leafs make another trade with the Boston Bruins this after they have already traded Tuukka Rask for Andrew Raycroft and followed by Phil Kessel for a first (Tyler Seguin) and a second (Jared Knight) in 2010 and another first round in 2011 and now the Leafs trade Tomas Kaberle for Joe Colborne who is a first or second center but is looking like a hockey player who may not play up to his 6'6 size as he is playing like a smaller play. This is a common situation as Leafs fans have had to deal with players who just not want to hit, go into the corners, or going to the net to get it done and Colborn is a Bruins first round draft pick in 2008. While also receiving the Bruins first round draft pick in 2011( I did say Bruins which means 20 to 30's pick in the draft not the Leafs top 10 pick) and this along with the Philadelphia Flyers first round draft so that Burke has 2 late first round draft picks so his scouting staff will need to look under every rock looking for gems to rebuild the lowly Leafs into a team that fans can really support without covering their eyes.
So in the end my only question to Leafs fans is why why why would you ever want to trade with the Bruins because the Leafs have not come close to even getting fair value for what they have given up over the last few seasons.
Leafs fans keep your head up high
