comparing it with the Bolland trade proves they can do just fine trolling themselves without any outside help

That wasn't the greatest example not that us leaf fans can laugh...we've wasted lots of picks as have other teams over the years.

Got to feel for them. They lost out on Mcdavid, Mathews, Stamkos and now Vesey hen they owned his rights

Plenty of examples of bad trades indeed..... Can't think of an example where the leafs traded a pick and came away without a player though (regardless of how awful that player is)

Loving the Toronto hate, criticizing sending off a 3rd round pick (one of 5 the Sabres had, 4 when factoring in one had to be sent off without choice to Pitt).

Meanwhile, they traded a 2nd and two 4ths for 23 games of the amazing Dave Bolland. Short memories from the center of the universe.

But, you know, BUFFALO has asset management issues, not anything that happens to their own team.

The Bolland thing is fun. If we're just looking for bad trades I'm sure we could come up with a lot worse when it comes to the Leafs.

Well, they still ended up with them no?


If you're going to go too literal on "player" I'm gonna pull out the 'those were "trades" card'

I still can't get over the fact that the NHL got rid of that rule pretty much exactly after the Leafs lost those picks. Too funny.

It's not a big deal either way...they had 4 3rd rounders...took a chance and missed...they have a pretty sold squad if they can get Kane's head on straight.

Vesey talk is over thankfully....can't wait for some hockey.

That's funny, considering they traded bolland not for 23 games... He was lost to an accident.

Also was old management, which is gone partly due to the asset management he speaks of.
