Foligno is a great add for Toronto.

 

[Jmo89]

Lol please be a first

Sounds like it will be. As Leafs fan, not a huge fan of it but also not horribly upset.

 

[HockeyVirus]

He is going to the Leafs. He automatically becomes the best at everything now.

You mean he suddenly sucks and the other guys they were rumored in on are amazing.

If they gave up a first LOL

For the teams that missed out, Minnesota's got a bigger, younger Foligno with a better PPG just layin' around. Don't be shy.

Foligno fits like a glove on a team that can't get out of the first round

He certainly gives them the size and leadership that they need.

 

[BrookswasHere44]

Convince me how Foligno is worth a first, go!

 

[tucker3434]

Exactly the kind of player they need. Good add.

I've just been setting the record straight on Foligno as a player, not saying to any particular fanbase that this is the player for you, not selling the player. To each their own.

But I can't quite understand why Colorado fans are so attached to their late 1st pick. Why is a ~30th OA pick so important to you, especially when you have 1) that team that should be gunning for the cup right now, and 2) haven't struck gold on a draft pick outside of the top 10 picks in 12 years. Foligno can absolutely be the difference between winning it all and getting knocked out, and you'd rather have the 30th?

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.

 

[CatchyTune]

we definitely gave up a 1st.

excited to see a large move though!

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Damn, now that's a solid addition...

 

[hamzarocks]

damn didn't want him, wanted Hall/Laughton.Lafallo

We gave a 1st I'm expecting which will be an overpay

You should keep him though. One of the best 3rd liners around.

 

[TruePowerSlave]

This is a great trade for Toronto, finally Dubas realizes the kind of players he needs to get out of the first round.

How can you even judge a trade without knowing the exact pieces that are involved

 

[frederixx]

Hahahahah best forward? Not even close

He might be a 3rd liner but he brings grit to a team that has none whatsoever. Now let's see how much they spent for him

Yeah, this is gonna get hate because it’s the Leafs and Foligno isn’t a scorer but it’s an important get for them. I really like what he adds to that roster.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Overpayment, but he's what the leafs needed. Maybe they can fit him in for cheap after this season if it works out

 

[Mickey Marner]

He plays 18 minutes per game and has for years, he's not a 3rd liner.

 

[Empoleon8771]

The Leafs are going all in this year, good for them. I think Foligno is a very good add for their bottom-6.

 

[Kairi Zaide]

Convince me how Foligno is worth a first, go!

He looks like a psycho

 

[Machinehead]

Leafs getting their grit

 

[Mez]

I think this is a great add for the Leafs, they dont need more firepower. If its a first though it does seem like an overpay.

None whatsoever? lol what? Hyman? Simmonds? Thornton? Holl? Muzzin? Get out of here.
