26.2M base on 3 players for Pens. 38% of the cap right there. Add in Letang and Fleury (13M more) and that's almost 55% of the cap

Maloney doesn't let him near the fax machine is my guess.

Dirt cheap. GMTM must be happy with Johnson/Lehner combo.
- TerryPegula

He said it the pre-draft presser that Johnson was going to be the backup. So trading for Lehner meant there would be no goalies of significance being signed here. He does still want a starter for Rochester though.

They have him sit next to one of these



and told him he is to answer it when it ring.


(they didn't tell him it isn't hooked up)

Kessel with Crosby is going to be very dangerous.
- Stripes77

With Kunitz very very very solid line

Johnson would look good there.

Depending on pick (Assume its a 1)

Not overly great return for Kessel.

Leafs blog will be fun for a while. They were expecting two uber prospects plus picks for kessel. They are all melting down.

Could you imagine his excitement?

Him sitting on a chair to tall for him for his feet to reach the floor.

Just swinging his feet back and forth with a sh!t eating grin.

Only for 8hrs later to realize he's been had.

Heading to Buffalo tomorrrow for two weeks, Allen St, Elmwood here I come!!

Their referee is already threatening to ban people due to the expected trolling lol

They retained 3 mil per of that deal.

Buffalo could have matched that offer if true.

Wow, that hurts.

Buffalo could have matched that offer if true.
- ImThatGuy

No we couldn't because we already traded away 800 prospects and picks away.

I doubt that Toronto would keep 3M of salary for Buffalo.

True, forgot about that.

Also Leaf Ref banned a guy for an LOL emoticon.

Apparently if you think its a bad deal or disagree you get a ban.

Wow, that hurts.
- IceColdBeer

Like it was so eloquently put

Kessel no longer on the team and he's STILL (frank)ed us
- twiztedmike

Should have got kessel for 5 million

Pens cap must be super tight. They will have two stellar lines and then who knows for depth. Their PP should be one of in not the best, so they better hope they draw enough penalties to use those lines to their fullest potential.

I'm not going to bother looking, but I cannot see the Leafs board happy with that trade..

I would assume a disappointing return for Dion as well.
