Confirmed Trade: [TOR/PHI] Scott Laughton (50% retained), 4th round pick, 6th round pick for Nikita Grebenkin, cond. 2027 1st round pick

[NeverForget06]

Elliot says Grebenkin and a 1st

 

[Patmac40]

Cond. 2026 1st + Grebenkin. Not the fake Cowan deal. I'm fine with it.

 

[H3ckt1k]

Who do we blame for trades like this now that Dubas is gone?

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Flyers Fleeced em

 

[Zonk]

Who is Darren Degger?

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Beautiful! Toronto does it again.

 

[TMLegend]

Trading the 2026 first for Laughton is terrible.

 

[uncleben]

Brutal trade for Toronto

 

[Face Of Bear]

quite the price for a guy who wont get 20g or 40pts

 

[kevsh]

A first? Ugh.
If it's a 2nd coming back, that's reasonable. Otherwise... Ugh.

 

[Internazionale]

Come on Philly!

 

[Rude Dog]

Based on other deals, not horrible. Leafs fans screaming to do something. Based on every GM out there adding...they all got ripped off. I wouldn't have done it. But whatever.

 

[BobClarkesfrontteeth]

1st and Grebenkin for 50% retained. Good deal for the Leafs

 

[The Burdened]

knew Laughton would return a 1st.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Flyers fans are going to love Grebenkin. He's going to be a player and is a huge character

 

[nbwingsfan]

Overpay for sure, but so is seemingly everyone who’s a buyer.

 

[Kairi Zaide]

I'm excited for Matthews to play with his brother.

 

[uncleben]

Trading the 2026 first for Laughton is terrible.

A first and your #2.5 prospect... even worse

 

[Lahey]

I’m fine with it. Keep Minten and Cowan. And Laughton at 1.5m for this and next year is pretty valuable

 

[Relapsing]

This is Hella bad

 

[CanMerc]

Glad Chevy stayed away at that price

 

[Aashir]

well at least it wasn't cowan or minten

but this doesn't make us close to florida, or tampa which is the issue

 

[GQS]

OK I was going to go completely insane on Brad if the initial report was Cowan going the other way, but while losing Grebenkin still sucks, it hurts less than if it had been Cowan. OK deal I guess.

 

[kevsh]

TSN saying it's a conditional first?
+ retention makes it sound a lot better. Depending on the condition of course.

 

[Schennanigans]

Not terrible but not great for Toronto either. No first two years in a row is pretty stupid on them.
