Confirmed with Link: Campbell/Clifford to the leafs

[Kingspiracy]

Not a fan of the trade, I hope Moore is halfway decent.

Best of luck in the blue boys

 

[Little Psycho]

Not mad at the trade just hate the Leafs.

For the love of God can we dump Lewis next

Overall I'm not terribly disappointed with the return. In terms of skill, Moore is probably an upgrade to Clifford and fits the age range of players we need in LA. He's 24 (a few years older than the wave of prospects coming) and signed for another year at the league minimum. Granted we lose a lot of character in the trade and likely a bit of toughness. Getting two thirds (with one potentially being a second) seems to be good value for the loss of character and the cost of Campbell. Plus, can't discount the addition of subtracting Campbell to open up the net for Petersen who is a goalie with much higher potential.

Trevor Moore and at a minimum two top 90 draft picks seems pretty good for Campbell and Clifford, but a second would make it even sweater, here's to hoping Campbell wins a bunch of games in TOR!

And so it has begun. Now can we please get rid of Stonehands 1 and stonehands 2. Lafreniere here we come.

 

[LAKings88]

Not thrilled with that return at all.

Thought Cliffy would be a King for life.

Guess his great character guy thing wasn’t untouchable after all. Seems like they gave him away. Solid pick ups for Toronto.

 

[KINGS17]

Moore is a good bottom 6 guy. Lots of Jam for a smaller player. Hopefully Kings can get something for Lewis. Moore can take that role over.

Moore is an AHL'er. He isn't going to be a big help to the Kings.

This is not a good return for the Kings considering they gave up Clifford AND Campbell.

Leafs fan here.
Sad to see Moore go. You guys will love his relentless effort and drive.
He was one of our best forecheckers. He brings speed and grit. His shot is pretty good and he likes the dirty areas for a small body frame.


One of my favourite moments of him as a leaf.

What should I expect from Clifford? How's Campbell?

Anyways, hope Moore performs well for you guys along with Grundstrom, and Durzi. It would be nice to see a deal that works for both sides.

 

[KINGS17]

Still my favorite

 

[deaderhead28]

What a crappy return.A hurt Leafs player and a third conditional pick for Campbell,Clifford and retaining 50%.Great job Blake lol At lease the LA Dodgers are doing it right.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Let's all cheer for Jack Campbell. Six wins is attainable!

 

[TakeTheBody]

Leaf fan, I come in peace. I think you guys will like Moore a lot. He's been concussed this year for the Leafs finally getting back. I've always liked Clifford, Moore is a younger version of Clifford who will play cheaper and hopefully for you guys just as well. Good luck, hope we see you in the finals soon. Hell, it's been fifty years for us I'd like to see anyone in the finals...

Campbell and Clifford were frequently the two best Kings on the ice this year, although that's not saying a whole lot. Clifford brings it 100% every shift and I think Campbell is going to do really well for the Leafs.

 

[Johnny Utah]

Horrible. F Blake. Understood Soup had to go but Clifford?

 

[Fishhead]

Gonna miss Cliffy.

Does this mean Villalta is the starter in Ontario? Petersen comes up unless they plan to pick up a cheap vet. The way Ingham is playing I think he should get a contract and a look with the Reign next year.

 

[AzKing]

Hard to expect a bigger return for a 29-year old upcoming UFA that has 14 points and a backup goalie.

Clifford is a fan favorite but his value to others is not going to be the same.

Ridiculous that he was ever "untouchable." There's 100 guys not in the NHL that could fill Clifford's role.

 

[deaderhead28]

So much for that right culture bonlony.

 

[Reaper45]

So wait what do they see in Moore that they didn't see in Leipsic? I'm not upset with the picks. 2 3rds or a 3rd and a 2nd are fine. Thanks Big Red Dog and Soupy.

 

[kilowatt]

If we'd sent Lewis instead of Clifford, I would've been excited about the return.

 

[HeadInjury]

If Campbell wins 6 games, we get a 2nd, a 3rd and Moore and Clifford could still re-sign here.

What are you people whining about exactly?

 

[tny760]

Gonna miss Cliffy.

that was my next thought, is villalta really ready to start in ontario?

 

[Cook24]

Not a fan of the return at all. Ugh...I’ll miss both Campbell and Clifford. Both seemed like outstanding people/teammates...

 

[deaderhead28]

Trash return

I agree.

 

[tbrown33]

Campbell has put up pedestrian numbers this year. I like him but he’s a backup goalie that can be a starter. Blocking Peterson.

Clifford is a fan favorite, but a UFA 4th liner. Gotta get something for him in a rebuild. High character for 3 more months means nothing to the Kings.

3rd rounder in a deep draft - good!
3rd rounder that LIKELY turns into a 2nd rounder - good
One of the Leafs’ top 5 prospects on some lists, albeit an older one, but one all Leafs fans seem to like (also a local kid fwiw) - good!

3 decent assets with years of control for a backup goalie blocking our #1 guy and a pending UFA 4th liner

This is bad?
