Confirmed with Link: [TOR/OTT] Matt Murray (25% retention), a 3rd in 2023 and a 7th in 2024 for Future Considerations.

[On-the-Fly]

Am i mistaken here?

Did Dubas just trade nothing for a 4.7 mil cap hit in Matt Murray?

 

[The Masters]

Dubas got bent over

 

[SprDaVE]

This is a horrendous deal. were the Sabres not going getting 50% off plus the 7th for 16th?How the f*** do the leafs get half that retention and a 3rd?

Nah it was 25% for them too.

 

[Byron Bitz]

A 3rd and a 7th? That’s it?

 

[Clark4Ever]

Disappointed with only 25% retention. If that's the case we should have received more than a 3rd and a 7th.

Oh well. Let's hope Murray can stay healthy and another tandem goaltender is on the radar.

 

[saltming]

The die is cast now.
Lets see if another goalie comes in.

With 50% retention the picks are average. With 25%... Seems like way too much risk.

I actually sort of like Murray and think he can bounce back but that's an ugly trade.

 

[The Masters]

 

[TMLeafer]

Quite underwhelming for taking on 75% of the contract. I know Murray is probably better than what he showed in Ottawa but what's so great about him at $4.7 or whatever

 

[The Podium]

I don’t hate the idea of Murray, but Ottawa was desperate to get out from under that deal.

He should’ve done a lot better than a 3rd and 25% retention.

 

[Rude Dog]

I would have been fine picking up Murray after his buyout for one million a year as a backup. I have no words. Suddenly Mrazek at 3.8 feels like a better option. I am a Dubas supporter. But this will finally show if he is brilliant or he is done. So flipping pissed.

 

[Gallagbi]

Damn, wasnt too far off (sadly)

Heres my prediction: Murray at 80% with a 4th round pick

 

[sxvnert]

Good. This will finally be the nail in the coffin that will take Dubas out of town. No one in their right mind could defend this move.

Leafs were better off keeping Mrazek as their starter.

 

[TheGreatOne11]

So Matt Murray for two years at 4.7 is Dubas grand plan? Are you f*cking serious? All this is is a gamble, with this core he is literally just gambling, hoping and praying he returns to form, if he was like last season we let the better goalie walk in free agency.

What a joke.

 

[Turin]

Listen I like Murray as a Pens fan. But he’s damaged goods. Betting on him to take your prime stars to the promised land right now? Ok man.

 

[francis246]

I don’t hate the move but could they not get more retention or at least get Pinto or Sanderson or something.

 

[Mr Knies Guy]

Think it was 25%.

Ah ok. But still, this seems to reek of fail for the asset return

 

[Aashir]

Dubas….murray better have a minimum .915+ for this trade to be acceptable

 

[GoodNewfieBoy]

Kyle Dubas is officially the worst GM in hockey AINEC

 

[Kelly]

Jesus f***, would have rather just re-signed Campbell at 5x5.

did we not just pay a team last week to take our often injured inconsistent goaltender?

Why did we just trade for a more expensive one?

 

[LeafGrief]

What the f***, this is unbelievably awful. 4.5m a year of cap space on Matt Murray?

Dubas comes out of this looking like a genius or fired. I don't know if there's a middle ground.

 

[Mickey Marner]

I like how Ottawa has two 2023 7th round picks and Dorion still cucked Dubas into it being a 2024 7th.

 

[A1LeafNation]

Nobody agrees on anything on these boards but everyone agrees this is a shit deal.

 

[Raymondo316]

We potentially only have 2 more seasons of Matthews, and we're wasting one of them on a goalie who hasn't been good since 2018/19
