[SprDaVE]

I love that the Leafs broke the news of the trade. No insider in on it

Leafs were linked to Lafferty and McCabe for a long time.

Leafs were linked to Lafferty and McCabe for a long time.

That’s true, but two trades in a row where the broke the actual deal themselves

 

[On-the-Fly]

After seeing what TB gave up for Jeannot, you gotta like the value here.

Nice trade.

 

[Notsince67]

I know. Run a short roster and problem is solved

So who are you waiving to do that?

 

[Gabriel426]

After looking at what TB got for Jeannot, this is a steal of a deal.
Kyle should be known as the Man of Steal, lol.

 

[The Iceman]

Q: Who will score that goal from the bottom 6 when needed in the playoffs?

A: Lafferty now can be that guy.

Also next years D
Reilly $7.5 and Brodie $5
McCabe $2 and Lily $1.4
Gio $800K and Timmons $1.1
Sandin $1.4

7D all for $19.2, tidy bit of business.

 

[Rob Brown]

Time to stay off the main boards thread. The usual suspects are out in full force.

 

[horner]

Desperate is more accurate.

I wouldn't say it is desperate.
We didn't really give up much for

O'REILLY Probably will be signed in the summer
Accuri same as above
McCabe 2yrs signed
Lafferty 2 yrs signed

These are the pieces we have needed for a while

Now we can finally trade
Kerfoot
Engvall
or
Holl

This is what we should have been doing with our UFAS a long time ago.

And we didn't touch our top prospects

Love it

 

[Rielly4]

Mccabe has played a lot on the right side this season. He prefers left I believe but seems to be able to play both sides. Good for next year as I think Timmins will be the #7 and Sandin should have a regular spot.

 

[al secord]

Bring back Kaberle and we're set.

 

[Machinae]

Pretty obvious McCabe will make a shutdown pair with either Brodie or Holl, but where is Lafferty playing? Is he good enough to push people down or just make an elite 4th line?

Sandin will be trade probably at the draft.

Love that Lou's cone of silence has carried over so strongly that the Leafs break their own trades.

Nice trade.

Good point. Leafs have McCabe and Lafferty for 2 and 1 more year while Tanner will need to be re-signed.

 

[DarkKnight]

Dubas this trade deadline.

 

[crump]

Holy depth..

Rielly. Brodie
Geo. Liljegren
McCabe. Holl
Sandin. Timmins
Benn

Hollowell
Kral

 

[TheDoldrums]

Wait, there's a condition on those late picks we got where if McCabe misses a bunch of time, Chicago sends a 3rd instead of a 5th. Love it. The little details seem pretty good for us here.

 

[Confucius]

How does this McCabe compare to the real McCabe?

Interesting, we ran him out of town and the Panthers promptly made him Captain. Can’t make this shit up. Lol!

 

[ShaneFalco]

Dubas seems to be adding playoff-like pieces. No broekn down players like Thornton, Foligno etc
Promising moves for sure!

TB has 3 mill to spend on 7 or 8 players

 

[therealkoho]

Like this probably?
58 - 34 - 16

91 - 90 - 88

Engvall - Kampf - Jarnkrok

ZAR - Acciari - Lafferty

I always appreciated McCabe for this hit

can't get over anybody standing up for Laine

 

[93gilmour93]

The playoffs can’t get here fast enough. This is exciting

 

[Kiwi]

We aren't going to die wondering

If the core can't do anything this year we have a probably with the core

Time to put up or shut up boys

 

[tony135420]

Holy depth..

Rielly. Brodie
Geo. Liljegren
McCabe. Holl
Sandin. Timmins
Benn

Hollowell
Kral

you forgot Mete.

 

[Uncle]

who is holl shutting down, hasnt he cost the leafs enough? im hoping his minutes are throttled with mccabe inserted

 

[LeafsFan89]

Everyone complaining about the traded draft picks... I know we're used to being a team, hence we want to covet the draft picks.... But the future is now. LFG!!!
