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

[Dion TheFluff]

like how do u not atleast get a 2nd in a deal like this? WTF

 

[TiMo15]

What's in Kyle's mind honestly? If Campbell is asking for $5m, you cannot afford to pay him that after only getting 25% retained by Sens in this trade.

This is ridiculous bad.

 

[Arthur Morgan]

Well back to the dark ages of goalies again. I guess I'm ready for Raycroft/Toskala level goalie again

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Am i mistaken here?

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

And a couple mid-late draft picks.

 

[Cor]

Nearly 5M on Matt Murray

lmao lmao lmao

 

[Hockey 4 Life]

Dubas needs to be fired. I've supported him but this is horrendous. Our team is worse and with way less cap. Our entire management needs to go.

 

[2 Slick]

How is Murray an upgrade over Campbell or Mrazek? He's just as injury riddled as Mrazek and his numbers are easily worse than Campbell's and Mrazek's over the last number of years. How long has it been since he's played a full season?

This is a bad trade in every sense of the word. 75% salary retained on a goaltender that can't stay healthy and certainly can't stop a puck to save his life.

This is why they decided not to fire Dubas? To make boneheaded moves like this? I'd rather they overpay Jack Campbell than having a sieve like Murray.

This is gonna bite them in the ass, you don't have to be a fortune-teller to know how this is going to play out this upcoming season.

I bet Murray doesn't play more than 25 games tops. He'll not even top the .900% and will be 3+ GAA.

This is sheer stupidity in every sense of the word. This what staying status quo gets you.

Should be fun watching Matthews and Marner do their best to outscore their garbage goaltending like they did last season.

 

[All Mod Cons]

horrible for the Leafs! Dubas will die by this trade

Nah man. Job for life. We're paying for stuff we did in a previous life.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

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.

It's impossible for him to look like a genius. Even if it works out, it was sheer luck and he didn't get nearly enough compensation

 

[kb]

I....got nothing.

This is a horrific trade. Horrific.

You needed 50% Dubas to make it make the least bit of sense......

 

[Kaniac]

Terrible. You had them by the balls Dubas and decided to rub it out.

I think sens had dubas by the balls actually. Dubas is a desperate man.

 

[hamzarocks]

Dubas paying back the Sens for the Zaitsev deal?

We dumped him for pretty cheap at the time?

Brown broke out afterwards.

Value right now sucks but Murray breaks out or the 3rd becomes something good in 3 years and we could see this deal be not too bad

 

[The Podium]

Where all the Dubas fans at right now. How do you explain this one ??

Dubas isn’t infallible, even his biggest supporters can criticize his worst moves.

Unfortunately this one is bad, almost unexplainable honestly

 

[Trapper]

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

I think the narrative was to have Woll/Kallgren fight for the backup. We just acquired 5 mil in cap, probably not. Not if you want other guys who can put on skates with the rest of the money.

 

[saltming]

We can also buyout his last year if needed

 

[Avilaj07]

If your ask me, Dubas just ended his career as a Leafs gm. This move is going to cost him and Keefe dearly

 

[madmike77]

I really don’t understand this deal. Little retention and a decent pick for a goalie who has been washed up for a while. If Murray doesn’t bounce back, Dubas can kiss his job goodbye.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Well hopefully Murray is healthy and our new goalie coach + familiarity with Keefe and Dubas sees him bounce back. Having a hard time being in any way optimistic though.

 

[On-the-Fly]

And a couple mid-late draft picks.

I think im going to go cry.

And Im a man, Im 40!

 

[Dr.Funk]

Only 25% retention is just terrible.

 

[acrobaticgoalie]

This is BRUTAL

 

[BehindTheTimes]

Dubas is even worse than I thought, yikes!!!

 

[Cleetus]

wow just wow!

 

[Paradoc]

What on earth is Dubas doing???

 

[BertCorbeau]

I really have no words.

This is just disappointment on multiple levels.
