gave up our 1st to clear Marleau so we could keep Kap and Johnsson and trade later for less value than Jarvis is worth
Just call K’Andre Miller to take care of him again
This wasn’t even the best part, I still can’t find the clip but K’Andre got Jarvis again on that shift with another big hit at the other end of the ice. Was pretty funny
But you know what’s even more funny? Kyle Dubas trading a 1st round pick to move Marleau to Carolina for a buyout. Marleau had 1 year left on his contract at around a 6.5 million dollar cap hit. The Leafs were bounced in the qualifiers by the Blue Jackets and that pick ended up becoming Seth Jarvis. The guy with a 4 million dollar cap hit that forced the Leafs to trade Marleau? Cody Ceci. Lol
Next season, Jeff Gorton was able to trade Marc Staal’s cap hit of 5.7 million and it only cost him a 2nd lmao
Jarvis is a little dude that plays like he's 6'4". No hesitation to go to the front of the net or corners. Takes his licks and goes right back at it.Nice hits for sure but he hardly took care of him, Jarvis just got right back up and wound up setting up the game tying goal.
The chances the leafs would have even drafted him are slim to none.Current playoff stats: 8GP, 3G, 3A, 6P. Tied with Aho as of today, 2 behind the team lead.
Of all the many blunders we've seen my organization make, I think trading away this pick will be looked back on as one of the worst during this management's reign.
This kid looks like an absolute gamer at 20. I realistically was not worried about Carolina getting him on draft day because I thought he'd go in the 7-9 range...when he fell to our pick, I just knew it was going to be painful to watch him.

that is what i thought when i read the thread titleMe too, man

It was the cap space that the Leafs wanted. As a 35+ contract he was going to count against them regardless. And he wanted to go to the West coast. So, if he didn't report or had the contract voided to become a UFA, the Leafs would be on the hook for his $6.25 mil cap hit regardless. That was the problem. Leafs up to that point had paid him $2 mill more than his salary cap hit btw.He’s a great young player but it’s kind of pointless to say the Leafs traded him for Marleau when there’s no guarantee they would have taken him with the pick. A number of other GMs also passed on him.
Having said that they were likely getting a good player in the draft if they had hung onto Marleau for one more year. Trading a first just to get rid of a year seems like a waste of a valuable asset.

No guarantee the Leafs would have drafted him. It happens. That’s the risk that goes with traded picks especially 1st rounders.
Many thanks owed to the wunderkind, Dubas.
Toronto traded the 13th pick to ditch Marleau? Terrible value...
He makes some really crisp passes and often looks dangerous in the O-zone.
