Which 1st are we talking about?

Why are the Leafs trading their 25 year old 30+ goal scorer for two unproven commodities again?

Top-2 draft pick is one of the most proven commodities in the history of the NHL. And that "25 year old 30+ goal scorer" has only 4 goals in 22 games.
To the OP. You won't get Johansen alone for those two.
The Jackets don't need Kessel who's UFA after next season. And they don't need overpaid and undersized 2nd line center. Grabo has no trade value at 5.5 mil a year, even though he is my countryman.

Talk about overstatement. They can have Johansen for those 2. Why they'd gut a team in the playoff hunt is beyond me.

No way we trade our pick. LA or NY's? Different story.

Any arguments beside that goofy smile? Basically you wanna trade Joey for 1 year of Phil Kessel and overpaid... I forgot, I printed it.

There is no need to even talk about value here. The Jackets are rebuilding so we aren't trading our picks and young players.

I really wanna see another Jackets fan who would have traded Joey for 1 year of Kessel and 5.5 mil Grabovsky.

Oh goodie, I always wanted to give up the future for a rental. Thanks so much for the opportunity to do this!!!!

Bad proposal. Jackets have no need for Grabovsky and Kessel potenially goes away while Johansen and the pick are bound to CBJ for years.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Uh no. Not wasting a top 5 pick for a player who will leave next year.

Once again, this.

Yeah ... no deal. Remember, Brian Burke isn't our GM ... we aren't going to mortgage our future for a one-trick pony (Kessel) and an underachiever (Grabovski). There is absolutely nothing to like about that deal from a Blue Jackets standpoint.

 

[SuperGenius]

done!
