I don't think they're going big this deadline.

4th line centre and a depth defenseman was the likely moves no?

That's a pretty productive 4th line centre,

Yeah. Don't mind him on the 3rd or 4th.

Haven't seen much of him this year.

Leafs may look to trade Komarov or Moore. Then throw the one not being traded on the wing

Has a super low shooting percentage. Has 24 points, shouldn't struggle being the Leafs 4th best center.

Not that you can compare seasons just based on points, but kinda funny he has 4 less points than Nash, yet Nash gets a 1st and an actual NHL player

I don't think so. Keep them all in case one of them gets hurt. It's a depth move, and trading depth players away would be counter productive.

Fans are very funny! You wouldn't find a single Leafs fan yesturday willing to give a 2nd for him and yet today here are some saying good trade. Lol
For the record I think he is a nice pick up and I wanted him in Winnipeg.

The maturity of Tomas Plekanec will be missed in Montreal, but they appear to have received fair trade value, parlaying his departure & that of a spare part into the arrival of a potential top four defenceman, a former 1st round pick in need of a new start & a high draft pick.

Can't believe we traded Rinat Valiev the future top 4 D, Rychel the 1st round phenom and a high draft pick that's going to be a late 2nd

I'd rather have aids than Plekanec if it matters to you.

Plekanec, Kapanen and Komi - not a bad fourth line.
Won't be easy for teams to match up against.

good trade! didnt give up much at all, 2nd rounder like last year for boyle, but I think plekanec makes a great 4th line center! I hate MTL but this should piss them off more with him playing for the leafs

You underestimate how much I hate Plekanec's face.

Probably not. Just acquire another defenceman and let it simmer until April. They is gearing up for the playoffs.

jeez... slow lazy overpaid.

I haven't questioned anything the Leafs have done since the creation of ShanaLouCock. But this one has me stumped. Gave up Valiev, Rychel and 2nd for this garbage.

I think Lou is keeping JVR and Bozak. My guess is he will now put all his efforts into getting a top 4 defenseman.

He could settle on a depth guy if the price is too high for his liking. I still think Hjalmarsson is the best fit for the Leafs.

Good trade for both teams. You guys didn't touch your prospects and still have another 2nd.
