Your not. Leafs give up a 2nd ( 31-35?) for a late first ( 16-25?) and a late 3rd.

Nah, PITT's 2nd, which will be 50+

Your not. Leafs give up a 2nd ( 31-35?) for a late first ( 16-25?) and a late 3rd.

its the pens pick. so yeah 30 picks in difference, not 5-10

because you left aside Leafs also trade a former 1st and a 2nd. and you forget what were the expectations.

I'm seeing a lot of fans from other teams coming on here and saying its a bad trade...and I agree with them. But one observation, the fans from other teams also said we weren't getting poop for Kessel.....so it surprises me that they're saying now its a bad trade lol.

So Toronto 2nd basically cancels the Pitt 1st.
Erixon is better than Harrington.
Biggs is a dump but will probably become Lucic now.
So Kessel got Kapanen and a third with 1.2 retained.

there it is

- HonkyTonkMan

so they'll have Pitts 1, 2, & 3rd next year.

so who won the Kessel trade, Bruins or Leafs ?
- vermie22

Bruins won the cup

Your not. Leafs give up a 2nd ( 31-35?) for a late first ( 16-25?) and a late 3rd.
- HonkyTonkMan

isn't it pitts second?

And this is why I say its brutal. the 2nd wipes out the 1st we're getting. Which means kessel for kapanen and harrington.
- mykokes

what? we gave up their 2nd which is like a 40th pick overall probably and we got their 1st...around #20 and a #3 pick 60th ( approx. )

Not again.

Yup I edited.

I was never going to be happy with the return for kessel. Which leafs didn't trade the 2nd back but whatever, kappanen has the potential to be a really nice piece. Our forward prospects are stacked...

Edit. See it's Pitts old second so not equal. But still...

exactly

How are you still breathing?

I love the trade

We also have 5MM more cap space now then we started with including the signings of PAP and hunwick
- Bigzby

- Lee Denault

Iggybf as an example.

its the pens pick. so yeah 30 picks in difference, not 5-10
- GardinerExpress

I see. In that case that's an improvement.

I really feel bad for the Orlando Solar Bears.......... losing Biggs....... that's going to really hurt them and their third line

They dont know it the Pens 2nd...Didn't know it was traded to the leafs...
- Fruitcakenipple

Even still, I don't understand why we're giving up that pick. Essentially removes harrington from the trade.
