Mike Augello: Leafs Live Blog from Vancouver - 2019 NHL Draft - Marleau dealt to Carolina

brutal

A first rounder! (frank) me.

Ugh. Reality sucks.

Yeeesh.

Meh, it was probably going to be another freddy gauthier. Glad to have the cap space back.

Nice Contract Lou

Here I thought Glen Sather was bad,

Now everyone will think they can get a first round pick for taking a bad contract. We will never hear the end of this deal.
Has anyone ever been traded straight up for first rounder to just be bought out?

TOR, more or less, has an agreement in place with Kasperi Kapanen on an extension. Not expected to be formalized until TOR cap (Marner) situation clarified. It will be a 3 year deal with an AAV in the $3.2M to $3.4M range.

Pavel Datsyuk was pretty similar.

Leafs get to keep everybody and it only cost a late first.

Steep price.

Or another David Pastrnak.

It was a tough price to pay.. But it should keep the offer sheet wolves at bay..

Dubas had his nuts in a vice. He did the best he could.

Offer sheets do not mean a thing unless they get signed.

That's a positive way to look at it

But there is less chance of an offer sheet if you have cap to match !!

Oh Toronto. How I warned you. The Marleau trade is even worst than expected.
