Then we get a 2nd round pick

wasn't that one move to get Andersen?

Edit: It was Ottawa's pick that was moved.

Should be. Sens win the cup, Leafs finish 30th. San Jose's pick gets moved

How did it take the media 2 weeks to find our what the deal was? I don't think they have the inside scoop anymore

surprised bernier wasn't included in the original deal for Andersen

— If Bernier starts half of Anaheim’s playoff games next spring and the Ducks lose in the Stanley Cup Final, Toronto receives the Ducks’ 2017 third-round pick. (If Anaheim doesn’t still own that selection, it will transfer its next available third-rounder from a future year.)

— Should Anaheim trade Bernier to a team that starts him in half of its playoff games next spring and wins the Stanley Cup, Toronto receives the Ducks’ second-round pick.

— Should Anaheim trade Bernier to a team that starts him in half of its playoff games next spring and loses in the Stanley Cup Final, Toronto receives the Ducks’ third-round pick.

If none of those things happen, the Leafs will receive no tangible return for Bernier beyond the useful cap space the move created.

Don't think I've ever seen a trade where a conditional pick was based on whether the team acquiring the player were to subsequently trade him again.

'Poor guy can't even use the cliche "It's nice to go to a team that wants me" line.

They get a 2nd overall pick if bernier plays half the games in the playoffs I think.

and if Anaheim wins the cup too.

$2 million bonus dude to be paid on the 1st of july.

This post demonstrates a modicum of deductive reasoning.

I am starting to suspect something fishy going on here. Are you sure you are really just a seagull?

They couldn't include him in the original deal - because Ducks were waiting for Leafs to pay Bernier his $2 million bonus due on July 1st. Does not count against Leafs cap but it was cash the Leafs agreed to pay.

Just did a 5km round trip for a beer run on the bike. Caught 17 pokeman. By the time I was almost home I didn't even have to stop my bike to catch them. So pro.

dealing for a quality NHL backup like Keith Kincaid or Reto Berra is not outside the realm of possibility.

I think I rather have Sparks as the backup then those two.

I think that ball ended up in the net a few times

This


Under the rules of the NHL’s collective bargaining agreement, Anaheim assumes all of Bernier’s $4.15-million cap hit for 2016-17 even though Toronto paid him a $2-million bonus a week before dealing him away.

In many ways, the trade can be seen as an add-on to the June 20 deal that brought Frederik Andersen to Toronto. The Leafs sent the 30th overall pick in June’s draft plus a 2017 second-rounder to Anaheim for the Danish goaltender.

I'm hoping in good faith and all that the Leafs do more business in the coming months for one of those nice young defencemen.

Idk.

Sparks was worse than Bernier last year

I still say leafs keep to the trend of taking on bad contracts for a prospect/pick in return.

snag Niemi or Lehtonen and pickup a prospect in return (honka or lindell)

then either move niemi/lehtonen at deadline for a pick...gives Andersen a vet backup and leafs a possible pick/prospect type return for a 1 year or half year stint.

I sort of hope not. We have alot of picks and prospects to develop and try out already. Plus alot of Laich and Michalek and Lupul etc to deal with already too.

Did you catch Jinx?

Idk man, both Kinkaid and Berra had solid stretches last season. Berra earlier in the season and Kinkaid right before Schneider returned.

Sparks reminds me of Steve Valiquette.

Impressive.

My beer runs are about 100 metres round trip so I don't have much of a chance to catch anything.

it would be for a half season or full season - that's it.

+ Leafs have to constantly continue to add to the cupboards when it comes to prospects.
