did the Leafs re sign winnik yet?

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

Bruins won the cup

You can use that argument about any trade. You could say that about Kaberle and we all know how much he had to do with that Cup win. It's flawed logic.

Those weren't Pittsburgh's top prospects.

Top forward and 2nd ranked defense.

pick 50 will cancel pick 20?
erixon who was on waivers better than pittsburghs 2nd best d prospect
biggs....hell no

I think you need a time out

- GardinerExpress

See his edit...and settle down with your imaginary ban hammer

Franson yet

I really feel bad for the Orlando Solar Bears.......... losing Biggs....... that's going to really hurt them and their third line
- Smitty98

Oh come on he was there first line player. Let's not add insult to injury.

That's it Shanny, keep layering in those prospects, we need as many as we can get.

The question now is who gets guillotined next.

good bye.. this is nothing but a troll post masked as an opinion.

you knew you would get people rattled

I can't wait to see how Bozak does without Kessel. Next season is going to be hilarious as long as you expect the worst.

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.
- mykokes

I'm not saying it's a bad trade, I'm saying it's alot lower that what was expected by everyone here. Just do some readback. As Leafs fans you should all be very happy Kessel is gone, whatever the return is.

that's a formality really

bunch of over emotional drama queens around today

Got that right, Doz.

Who won the cup?

That is the prize isn't it?

So we take the ring away from chirelli?(sp)

But it's so fun

Right now he's busy calling around to see if any of the other guys have a spare room open. Maybe Parenteau wants to get a place together.

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

pick 50-55 is not worth harrington IMHO.
We are getting spaling plus a 3rd for that 2nd basically

Good return

disagree.

most were expecting cap dump (didnt happen) 1st (yup) top prospect (yup) roster player (yup)

We may need Phoenix tv to see him play though.

Yeah but it doesn't mean you won every trade you made. You can make an awful trade (Kaberle) and still win the Cup and that doesn't magically turn that into a good trade. I'm not saying that Boston didn't win the Sequin trade, I'm just saying that "they won the Cup" isn't a good argument in support of that.

Kapanen easily becomes our third best forward prospect. Harrington also is one of our best d prospects. Plus a first round pick and a 26yr old center. What's to complain about.
