I'm not going to lie to you, Aethsie: I think the Penguins bent us over a Zamboni on that trade.

I've already written off Harrington as nothing more than a 4-6 guy.

But hey, we only gave up one of the elite scorers in the league. Those guys are easy to come by, right?

Hell, I'm sure Dubas can turn that Penguins 2nd round pick into 2 4th rounders, and get all the scoring we need...

It's the delusions that unite us all.

Harrington was written off as 4- 7 dman before we got him.
One of the worse trades in leafs history.

Maybe Mathews had the right idea this year by playing in Europe.
Is the rule relating to junior eligibility ONLY for the AHL, or all professional leagues that aren't the NHL?

AHL and ECHL. If I were the leafs and didn't think he was ready to play in the NHL by the 2016/2017 season I'd probably send him to Sweden to play. Considering the leafs connections to London I doubt they do that though.

Over the moon Phil is gone. It feels all weird having a president that is actually practicing what they preach and getting rid of players who are troublesome/all about me/devoid of any self-responsibilty. I'd imagine this is how it feels to be a fan of one of the other 29 NHL teams.

One of the very best trades in franchise history.

I was never a huge Sundin fan..but the guy was one of the best every year for a dozen years. All Class.. I would think he is exactly what you would want to honor.

the leafs made some long runs, and for a period had played the most playoff games in the NHL while he was Captain.

Toronto is not an easy place to play and he never let it show..hearing his comments now..it got to him.

so then how could you not have been a huge fan? what more did you want from him? this reminds me of the rationale behind Habs fans who despise Pacioretty.

Any truth to the rumour that they originally were going to have Sundin's statue sitting in a Muskoka chair?

HELLO MINIONS I AM NOW ENJOYING MODERATOR STATUS (BY VIRTUE OF BEING DOZZER's ASSISTANT) ON HOCKEYBUZZ ALL INSULTS ABOUT SUNDIN WILL BE MET WITH 1 WEEK BANS

And yeah, JVR dives too much.

TY Pal!

Leafs need two top 10 picks next year so our top line in 2020 can have two Nylanders.

Perhaps we could put a little cartoon bubble coming out of Sundin's mouth saying, "Maybe I could have won a Cup if I wasn't skating next to Dmitri Khristich."

In other related news, Leafs fans still think Komarov is awesome...

that's a far more rational than saying "MAN SUNDIN WAS AN AWESOME PLAYER WHO LED OUR TEAM TO ITS GREATEST SUCCESSES IN THE LAST 5 DECADES... BUT I'M NOT A HUGE FAN OF HIS. NOW WHERE DID I PUT THAT TIE DOMI JERSEY? I ALREADY LOST BOTH OF MY DARCY TUCKER JERSEYS..."

Bix, he said skating

that pretty much leaves Allison out of the mix
