GDT: Trades & Free Agency

[Torontonian]

After Toronto traded for Edmonson, kinda figured they wern't getting a dumba type piece.

 

[stats1]

People flipping out over Andrew f***ing Peeke lol Zboril and a 3rd is a high price to pay for a 7th D-man

 

[MoreMogilny]

Yeah Leafs definitely aren’t making any splashes with 17 minutes left

Treliving sat on his hands

I would have been fine with that. Except he wasted assets acquiring two depth D who will not push us anywhere. The team isn’t nearly good enough to go toe to toe with Florida or Boston. So if he wasn’t going to acquire anyone else then why did he throw away more picks?

Makes no sense.

No, they aren’t good enough. So why throw away picks and prospects to invest in a team who isn’t good enough?!!!

We paid more than that to get Boosh and Edmundson as rentals. If he can regain the form he had earlier in his career in a much better defensive system it’s a steal.

He also is incredibly costly if he doesn’t

 

[Rude Dog]

Hoping to get through the next 20 minutes with both our 1st and Robertson

 

[supermann_98]

Just about 20 mins to go. Brad needs to keep standing pat

Praying, it would also be a nice little FU to the core 4 that their new GM doesn't see them as contenders.

Maybe, just maybe, they react like the Cleveland Indians back in the movie Major League and play with heart to stick it to the management group

 

[keonsbitterness]

15 minutes. Someone start counting down from 900.

I always declare the deadline to be over around 4. Still time and information trickling in long after 3.

Signs of the mediocrity the Shanaplan is dragging us into

 

[Sypher04]

None that are available at least. This team also isn’t worth trading the 1st pick for at the deadline.

Well that's just not true imo.

After last night did they throw in the towel?

 

[Leaf Rocket]

stolen from the trade forum but i thought i should share with you all.

Exactly. Standing pat was exactly what he should have done. This roster does not deserve help. Either go all in or do nothing. This in between shit is pathetic. Wasting assets, no matter how minor, is wasting assets nonetheless. This entire organization is a joke.

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Be cool everyone. It's not over.

 

[MoreMogilny]

Should’ve traded Bertuzzi and Domi then

 

[LeafalCrusader]

15 minutes. Someone start counting down from 900.

Stop when you get to Sammy's save percentage.

 

[1specter]

Almost wonder if the recent win streak was a bad thing, gave the team false confidence instead of just trying to restock the cupboard and recouping some assets

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Why would Tre have those players retained if no other thing in the works.

 

[FrozenJagrt]

Whether he is or not you can't judge someone 6 months into his tenure of inheriting a capped out roster with little flexibility.

Yes, he hasn't done tantrum moves like a typical HF board poster would so if that makes him bad I guess he is bad

Most of his moves so far have been pretty underwhelming and very similar to what he did in his previous job. I'm not judging him on six months, I'm judging him on his body of work. It's more bad than good.

Shanaplan brought in a GM who couldn’t decide which way to turn and ended up in the middle of doing nothing and doing something

 

[howlman]

Umm Brad you taking a nap?

"You wanted to take all the money, that means you don't think you need help. Carry the team then!"

 

[Captain Crunch]

The Leafs need someone who will improve the roster, who has the stones to make the deals to do so. Treliving has never been that guy.

First we need to get rid of Shanahan.

 

[Commander Clueless]

Should’ve traded Bertuzzi and Domi then

But they were the only ones that cared....
