So if you have people you know you're not going to re-sign then let them walk.
- bobbyisno1



Yes?

Because it's dumb to trade away players heading into the playoffs. Unbeleiveablely dumb

Playoff teams don't trade away parts of their team heading into the playoffs. That's dumb
- burn

Also are you telling me they couldn't trade those assets to a playoff team that was weak on offense that has a lot of defense?

Apparently not. The ideal move that perfectly benefits the Leafs is not always available.

Getting nothing in return is more dumb, also the word is stupid.
- bobbyisno1



They got cap space in retun, so I agree getting nothing for them would be dumb.

Trading players off a playoff team a the deadline for picks and prospects is the dumbest thing ever.

The D misses Gardiner a lot since he's been injured. This is so obvious. Zaitsev "Sucks", not Gardiner.

People still defending z and hating on gards is hilarious

Nobody is defending Z, well nobody here at this moment.
That's cap space that would be a bonus, cause there are marlies that are better than him.

The funny thing is Columbus kept 2 star upcoming UFAs when they could have traded them for a lot and gave up a ton of assets for Duchene and they were barely clinging to a playoff spot.

But the Leafs, a top 5 team, they can't win a cup so trade Gardiner!

Yeah, he made a weird comment about "Selling tickets" as to why Marner is worth as much or more. Leafs sold-out in 2015-16 dead-last in the NHL with PA Parenteau as their big star.

Just saw a thing that said Matthews 4th highest selling jersey 2years ago, highest last year and 3rd this year.

But yeah he doesn't sell. What a goof

Burke is making very weird comments about the Leafs. His guarantee Nylander is getting traded this summer won't work out well.

St. Louis did it with Stastny. Not that it mattered to anybody.Wild just did it. Depends where you're at. Leafs aren't in that mode, maybe last year you could argue they should have/could have, but not this year. They need their Blackhawks/Penguins esque push to show they have something other than "potential."

Uhm Minny isn’t in the playoffs
