Confirmed Trade: [TOR/SEA] Mark Giordano (50% retained) and Colin Blackwell for 2022 2nd, 2023 2nd, 2024 3rd

[Mr Positive]

Those two have time left in their careers. Trading for a re-signing advantage is worth something

'Boosh' on the top pair and your happy with that?

Him and Rielly play well so far.

'Boosh' on the top pair and your happy with that?

Nothing says solid playoff d like a #6-7 dman on your top pair

 

[Gravity]

He's not wrong. Toronto has had good drafting. Pro scouts are a different story.

 

[JAK]

1st, 2nd, 5th.

You heard it here first.

 

[GoonieFace]

Plus Dubas is trying to save his job. It’s cup or bust for the Leafs.

You are wrong, if the Leafs win a round that is the cup, and all will be roses in Leafland

 

[jellybeans]

If it is a 2nd + or a 1st, Toronto needs to consider a new GM next season.

Pretty sure it will be or the kraken's would of waited till tomorrow to trade him.

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Calgary can't even make the playoffs in the shitty Canadian division last season. They get rid of him and his "leadership" boom they're in 1st in their division now

You are clearly trolling, Calgary was one of the best teams in the league last year after Sutter got his system in place

 

[AvroArrow]

It's absolutely not, but it's better than a 1st round exit for sure.

'Boosh' on the top pair and your happy with that?

With those pairings I don’t see rielly and lyubushkin to carry all the heavy lifting, they don’t really use rielly in that way now with brodie.
Muzz holl and Gio brodie can split the tough matchups.
Lyubushkin (there, feel better?) has been steady and good with us and provides and element to the line up. He’s also a decently mobile guy and doesn’t have to do any puck handling.

 

[BatVader]

My guess… 2nd + 4th

 

[smirob]

Did Gio have a stint with the Sue Greyhounds?

It's laughable that a GM builds a team with the players' JR team in mind.

 

[exporta]

'Boosh' on the top pair and your happy with that?

He's been a great fit with Rielly

 

[Gaston Gingras]

Mark Giordano is 38 and he's not the player he used to be, I don't see the Leafs giving a First for him, no way!​

 

[JKG33]

You are clearly trolling, Calgary was one of the best teams in the league last year after Sutter got his system in place

And they still missed the playoffs behind the great powerhouses of Toronto, Edmonton, Winnipeg and Montreal

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Nothing says solid playoff d like a #6-7 dman on your top pair

Jan Rutta plays 1st pair, that's not a great argument

 

[PunchImlach is Alive]

Rumored return is Toronto likely sending Matthews

 

[Pavels Dog]

Two 2nds and a depth prospect I'd say.

 

[Advanced stats]

1st, 2nd, 5th.

You heard it here first.

LOL

 

[BatVader]

Rumored return is Toronto likely sending Matthews

You forgot the +

 

[KingsHockey24]

I go for a 30 minute jog to come back to this.

Maybe If I go for another we'll see a Chychrun deal.

 

[Dotter]

Mark Giordano is 38 and he's not the player he used to be, I don't see the Leafs giving a First for him, no way!​

Yeah but this is the Leafs.

 

[HabsForHire]

Big if true. Hes a settling presence for a team that really needs it in the playoffs

He's just not good anymore lol, I hope the leafs moved a 1st for him

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

And they still missed the playoffs behind the great powerhouses of Toronto, Edmonton, Winnipeg and Montreal

Kinda hard to catch up when Ward dug them into a pit that deep

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Is Muzzin out for the season? Seems like an odd addition considering that with Muzzin the Leafs now have Rielly, Muzzin, Giordano and Sandin on the left side, while employing guys like Holl and Lyubushkin on the right side. Not that those guys are "bad", but both are probably better suited as #5/6 guys and the right side is the one that needed upgrading.
