Nylander

PAP?

 

[Surge]

And now a 2nd rounder along with Kessel..jesus christ.

Why do I follow this team

 

[Holiday]

Leafs GAF

Blues extended Lehtera, 3 years at 4.7 AAV. Not bad I guess.

 

[Clydefrog]

Haha Bruins eat your heart out. Toronto is King Idiot.

 

[Cactus]

Still hoping there's more to this...

Holy fuck please

*Based Dubas*

 

[Skab]

Holy shit, Toronto.

 

[DopeyFish]

we're retaining $1.2 mil fuck off

 

[Kave_Man]

Meh.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

They Literally Traded Kessel for Pucks

What the Fuck

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

Remember Sheldon Souray?

He's retiring. Last day with a contract was yesterday. Been on the Ducks roster but LTIR ever since his arm injury.

Don't worry, 2022 is closer than you think.

Ryan ‏@ryanfancey 3m3 minutes ago Ottawa, Ontario
Kessel goes from Bozak centering him to Crosby. That's like going from a bike with no chain to a fighter jet.

.

 

[Plinko]

That trade was Feaster-esque.

 

[Socreges]

we're retaining $1.2 mil fuck off

 

[gaming_noob]

As per @TSNBobMcKenzie, Penguins trade Spaling, Kapanen, Harrington and two picks to Leafs for Kessel and two other contracts...

Looks better..

 

[ShinRPGamer]

Hahahaha I take it back. Toronto got robbed! Wow.

 

[Holiday]

I guess the shanaplan hit a few snags lol

 

[Red_Man]

How did no one else offer a better package than that?

 

[bonesmccoy]

Am I the only member of Leafs GAF that is fine with this trade?

He had some great years in Montreal, was exciting to watch.Too bad about all the injuries he got.

how dare you be ok with that return for king phil

 

[Fei]

Toronto's second and Pittsburgh's first probably won't be that far apart.

 

[Kave_Man]

Am I the only member of Leafs GAF that is fine with this trade?

I'm waiting to hear the final details officially before I comment but yeah I'm not that upset about this one.

 

[Jayhawk]

Am I the only member of Leafs GAF that is fine with this trade?

I'm fine with the trade too. A former 1st rounder, a defenseman from the London Knights that Mark Hunter probably likes, and a 1st round pick for a player with a high salary and long term.

 

[bonesmccoy]

how dare you be ok with that return for king phil

I was expecting them to eat more and get less.

+1 Jayhawk

 

[Kabuki Waq]

Wtf Leafs got fleeced.

 

[Foggy]

TSN celebrating the trade for Toronto. Oh man...

[Plinko]

Detroit out on Green. Of course.

 

[Red_Man]

I'm fine with the trade too. A former 1st rounder, a defenseman from the London Knights that Mark Hunter probably likes, and a 1st round pick for a player with a high salary and long term.

And who has scored the 2nd most goals of any player since 2008

 

[Coldnoodle]

Now we're behind Columbus, Pittsburgh, NYR and NYI.

GREAT

 

[T.M. MacReady]

And on Canada Day, no less.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Button likes Harrington a lot lol

 

[purg3]

This is hilarious

 

[DopeyFish]

TSN celebrating the trade for Toronto. Oh man...

they have simmons on their panel

SIMMONS

 

[Jblanks]

How did no one else offer a better package than that?

Pittsburgh and to a lesser degree Nashville and Calgary were the only teams interested.

Thanks Nonis for that contract.

 

[Fei]

According to TSN Hockey Insider Bob McKenzie, the Leafs will receive forwards Nick Spaling and Kasperi Kapanen, defenceman Scott Harrington and a first-round pick in exchange for Kessel and a second-round pick. McKenzie also says the Leafs will retain 15 per cent of Kessel's salary.

Final trade according to TSN.

 

[zroid]

Fuck

 

[Red_Man]

Greg Pateryn has signed 2-year, 1-way extension in MTL. He's now got 3 years of 1-ways with Canadiens $575K / $750K / $850K. #TSN

Good depth extension, he can be a reliable 5-6 guy for a few years.

 

[zroid]

Hope kessel scores 50 goals next year

I'll be a pens fan during the playoffs for the foreseeable future

 

[BigJonsson]

I'm ok with the trade, they didn't take any horrible contracts back

Need to free up cap space to get Stamkos, Tavares and McDavid

 

[Wingfan19]

Detroit out on Green. Of course.

Nice Beard!!!!


Yay!

 

[Holiday]

Coyotes signed Michalek. They basically got Letunov for free from STL, then.

 

[Razorskin]

Hope kessel scores 50 goals next year

I'll be a pens fan during the playoffs for the foreseeable future

Disgusting.

 

[Fei]

That looks like a terrible trade considering they agreed to retain salary.

 

[Jblanks]

Lol Pens just got Semin too.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Pitt got Semin.

FUCK MY LIFE

 

[BigJonsson]

Semin is a Penguin
