Dion was at his best then too.

It was the smokes that helped him.

Moore is undersized but fast. He's scored a total of 5 goals in 52 NHL games, so he's not apt to shock anyone. I think he has what it takes to be an effective guy who can score 12-15. He's also 24, which is why I would factor in the imbalance.

Clifford is 6'2 and is 35 pounds heavier than Moore @ 210lbs. He has 6 goals in 53 games this year, (so he's already a more prolific scorer than Moore!), so based on the "intangibles" you could argue Clifford has more value. Clifford is a UFA who's 29, however, so again, that's why I'd say Moore has more value.

I am just saying, if I was looking at another player on another team who has moores stats...and looking at his underlying numbers... Id say he is a toss in, not worth anything really.

As a Leafs fan I dont see it that way, but again...maybe a bit of over valuing your own players

Not really, Guy Lafleur was a much better player, perhaps the best in the NHL for a few years and he smoked a pack of cigarettes during a game, was a 2-3 pack a day guy.

Indeed, but then again most players were in similar shape so.

so looking up those players...the Kings have gotten not much so far.
Muzzin is the best piece.

Grundstom and Durzi have a combined 0 goals this year.

what a lopsided deal for the kings

- senstroll


While I agree, the Campbell/Clifford deal isnt a great one for the Leafs, giving up a 2nd for that package and a 3rd is not good. I dont mind moore, and two 3rds, but when it becomes a second thats a steep price for not a lot. Id imagine thats what the cost was to retain salary though.

Moore seems like a guy who has the potential, based on being very good in the AHL, but who you just keep waiting for him to take that step in the NHL.

Kind of like Jack Campbell, was good as a jr, has had success in the AHL and ECHL, but hasn't been able to be consistent at the NHL level

It becomes a second with conditions met, which id imagine will be met.

"So to recap: that 2021 conditional 3rd becomes a 2nd if either the Leafs re-sign Clifford; or Campbell wins 6 regular-season games and the Leafs qualify for the playoffs. If neither condition is met, pick remains a 3rd"

so its a 3rd 2020 and a 3rd 2021

If they re-sign Clifford its 3rd 2020 and a 2nd 2021 (so its not a rental)
or
If Campbell wins 6 games and the Leafs make the playoffs its 3rd 2020 and a 2nd 2021

Both of the above can happen also, or Neither.

Best case is both happen, Leafs make the playoffs and not many people care that a 3rd moves to a 2nd

Just thought you should know that you are actually correct on a lot of your takes and just because these leftist bullies, who are clearly insecure, don’t agree with you does not mean your opinion is stupid or invalid.
Opinions are a byproduct of liberty and democracy, and you are entitled and respected for having the balls to go against the grain and state your opinion.

Why we traded a promising young, feisty and fast player along with a 3rd and 2nd for a backup goalie and a 4th line UFA is literally beyond me.
Kings have Grundstrom, Durzi, Moore, Bjornfot, 2020 3rd and 2021 2nd for Muzzin, Campbell and a 4th line scrub. 😂😂😂
Muzzin is a FA after this season so basically it’s Grundstrom, Durzi, Moore, Bjornfot and a couple more top-90 picks for a backup goalie for two years and a top 4 defenseman for the remainder of this year.

Just imagine if Burke was making these kinda trades and how all the fruit loops would be crying about “asset management”.
Hilarious.

You're entitled to have opinions. If you want to have them in a vacuum, then feel free to shoot yourself into space. In the meantime, if you're not prepared to get called out or debate your opinions that "go against the grain", then don't express them.
