Hey guys,

Sorry i'm late, missed the whole thing while i was in the pub (in England).

Can someone please tell me what isn't (frank)ing awesome bout this trade?

Cheers

Fk if they don't make the playoffs in the east then they are blowing it up in 2017

How the Hell they gonna do that? You saw how tough it was to move Kessel. Blowing it up would mean moving Sid or Malkin...aside from them, that team is already blown to pieces over the last 5 years.

We get their first in 2017 even if they miss, assuming they make it next season.

No if they miss both years we only get their 2nd in 17

No if they miss in both 2016 and 2017 Leafs get their 2017 2nd round pick and pens get no pick

Kapenen got significantly worse after the trade, it's really weird

if they don't make the playoffs there's something really wrong with the game

Never saw the players Pitts is sending back.

Best Player Wins.

We lost.

But we're rid of Kessel, so we win. I think.

I mean I never saw them play... so I can't say anything.

Probably not

Don't say that.

Best top 6 they've had in Pit now, no?

Kunitz - Crosby - Kessel
Perron - Malkin - Hornqvist

They didn't get rid of kessel just for fun. Something wasn't right for the leafs with kessel.


We'll see.

Their top forward prospect in Kapanen. Harrington who captained the Canadian WJC team a few years ago, should be a good defenceman. Plus Spaling and some really convoluted picks.

Well i did not see that coming. Oh man, we always lose trades.

Does Phil give a poop yet?

Is his contract not burdensome all of a sudden?

Probably the 2nd worst roster in the league but they will be well coached and annoying to play against. You all know this team is gonna crush our hopes and dreams and finish 9th

My fear too

Well he's still a fat ass. Pennsylvania weather won't suddenly fix that. Don't worry guys, they will hate that guy before he's 30.

Edit:....and by that time Harrington and Kapanen will be welcome additions to your roster.

I need to consult a Dr.

Yeah, seems that way.

Just embarrasses me to hear all the Leafs fans wanting something in a trade for said player, and when they get that, that go nuts and blame the management. Unfortunately, as Leafs fans, you have to live with it.

I thought you guys would do a bit better. But 2 solid prospects, a decent draft pick and mediocre but useful NHL player is a good return.
