Confirmed Trade: [TOR/CBJ/SJS] N. Foligno (75% retained), S. Noesen to TOR; '21 1st and '22 4th to CBJ; '21 4th to SJ

[One Winged Angel]

Yikes for Toronto.

 

[super6646]

Overpay

 

[crab]

Hahahah this is like the Gaustad deadline deal all over again .... wow so bad for the Leafs

 

[devilsfan35]

Overpayment

 

[LivingRentFree]

How is getting a heart and soul guy like that a bad thing at 25% salary? And a solid 4th liner in Noesen? A very very low first

 

[TopChedder]

Doesn’t get worse than that. Horrendous trade.

Prob goes down as top 2 all time bad trades in the NHL.

Just crazy eh

 

[Burnie97]

Toronto really believes they have a chance... those poor bastards...

I know ... why would the 1st place team in the league near the trade deadline go for it... jeez... that's never been done before... so stupid right?!?

See how that looks now...

 

[ffh]

Not sure where he fits in the Leafs line up. I don't like him on the top two lines, and if they gave up a 1st for him to play on the 3rd line, that kind of blows. Chucky and Hyman seem to be locks in the top 6.

Galchenyuk - Matthews - Marner
Hyman - Tavares - Nylander
Foligno - Kerfoot - Mikheyev
Engvall - Spezza - Simmonds
Thornton (has looked absolutely lost for a month)

personally i think he's better then hyman and galchenyuk

 

[izzy]

this 75% thing is getting out of control lol

 

[Price is Wright]

Cost doesn't matter if you win the Cup. Ask Tampa.

Still think Toronto should have got a defenceman. Maybe they still do.

[CatchyTune]

How in the hell is 7 goal 16 point Foligno worth all that?

Dubas needs to put down the drugs.

were you saying these same things about Tampa and Savard, or saving the insults exclusively for the Leafs?

 

[sens13]

if they were willing to pay that much why not just go for hall? I get the intangibles but that's still a pretty steep price for a 3rd liner

 

[Go Wings]

There's more to hockey than just points. Especially in the playoffs.

Oh I know I am quite familiar with Foligno. He still isn't worth close to that.

They aren't likely to have an easier path to a conference final (or whatever you call it this year) any time soon, so going all in this year makes sense.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

This entirely is dependent on the playoffs. If we win a couple rounds and he plays well nobody will give even a single f*** about this pick.

 

[majormajor]

As a fan of a team also mentioned I agree with you 100% The Leafs at the time of this post have more points than anybody in the NHL, I don't care about giving up, what is currently pick #31 for Nick Foligno you know why? because Toronto has a real chance to win and end the drought you got to take your shot, the cup is the ultimate goal.

Even if Columbus drafted a Hall of Famer with that pick, you win a championship that's all that matters.

Take your shot.

Good luck with Nick, Dubas made a good choice.

Jarmo had plenty of offers to choose from, my bet is Foligno is going to Toronto because Jarmo asked him where he wanted to go.

 

[MasterMatt25]

That's a lot wow

Dubas needs to put down the drugs.

If it helps, think of him as a third defenseman.

 

[SoftDumpNtheCorner88]

Guys are forgetting that the leafs 1st is mostly likely going to be closer to a 2nd....

 

[TimeZone]

LMFAO the leafs continue to get slower and older. The leafs never learn. Their biggest needs continue to be D and goaltending. Oh well. Enjoy the North and good luck on the other side.

Why do people still think this way in 2021?

 

[Bertuzzipunch]

Galchenyuk is really in the leafs top 6?

Top 10 D in shots against and goals against but you do you.

Right? They should just not even bother trying. First place in their division and top 3 in the league? Just sit tight.

better chance than the Avs

All that?
It's a 1st in a draft no one knows anything about. For a guy virtually fully retained.

What are we even looking at here hahaha

 

[Static]

I can't believe Foligno brought back a first. Wasn't this supposed to be a buyer's market?
