David Shoalts, the writer who “broke” the “Bowman to Toronto, no really I mean it” story over the weekend was on Sportsnet radio this afternoon. Predictably, he backpedaled, tossed some alibis (a close friend of Bowman’s told him it wasn’t “complete hogwash”), then started dropping names left and right.
One big one? Steve Yzerman.
Follow the link and you’ll hear Shoalts eventually mention the fact that Yzerman would be a logical choice for the Toronto GM spot should Bowman decide (on the fourth or fifth offer) to take the Leaf president job.

On the other hand… how much would that suck if it actually happened? The Leafs come in and poach pretty much the two biggest names associated with the Wings in the last 25 years and install them in their front office?
On the plus side, it’d get Feds out of the cross-hairs.

About Abel to Yzerman
Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that. Your suggestions and critiques are welcome: .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)

So, in other words, the Maple Leafs want to take two Red Wing mainstays, give them an offer they can’t refuse, expect them to jump ship and miraculously turn around the Loafs? I guess this hot weather is starting to get those in Toronto, or the latest batch of reefer on the streets is pretty damn special.
Neither are going anywhere, and in Shoalts’ fantasy world, pigs probably fly. It saddens me how low they’ve gone in order to create some buzz about a pretty lame franchise.
