He was a part of the second Kapanen deal. Just an AHLer.

So really no better than Coffey?

Galchenyuk also hasn’t left Canada so he doesn’t have to go through quarantine. He’s just more depth. Don’t hate it, and don’t love it.

Why the (frank) would Dubas trade Korshkov for a player who was on waivers for free?

Might be a bit worse.

Is there an election soon?

Why attack ads on O'toole?

I guess it's a found lottery ticket for Toronto. If he pans out? Great. If he doesn't then who cares right? It's not like they lose anything of significance here.

Yep

- Steven_Seagull

Considering they could have claimed him for free it makes no sense to me, what am I missing ?

I’m confused. Even if CAR eats most of his salary, which I assume they will, why do this???

¯\_(ツ)_/¯


frees up a contract allocation???

Wow thats the top 6 forward the leafs were gonna get
Lol
Ah well
Hope it works

Jimmy Tanner once said Galchenyuk was one of the best Corsi players in the NHL. So there's that.

Retained on Chucky? I asked a couple blogs ago if we should claim him for free and most didn’t really like it.

I don't think anything retianed.

Maybe this is vesey replacement?

Oh (frank), now I hate the deal.

What in the (frank) is with leaf games being blacked out and not on centre ice this year.

I remember that. It didn’t get that warm of a reception.

He doesn't need to clear waivers now apparently since he already cleared. Allows them to move him around freely.

I'm not crazy excited, but he is a depth player who was able to score at one point in his career.

And then yell at you because you’ve left a big pile of dust on the living room floor.

I guess Dubas didn't think too highly of Korshkov?

Contract spots.

Don't care about warovsky but I don't know if it's wise to do this for korshkov

I like the move quite a bit.
A pitty losing Korshkov; I guess they didn't want Vesey...

Is Corsi a brand of vodka?

Hey guys, I've got it on good authority that the Leafs have a clear path to the Conference Finals.

We can all breathe a sigh of relief.

All strawmanning aside, there's totally no need for any trades or improving the roster!

I think we can all go about our business and reconvene in late May-Early June.

Exactly
Wasted a good pick on Korshkov
😞

So a bold prediction here: Galchenyuk will be putting up more points on Matthews' / Tavares' line than Nylander.

- gergeswillems

He looked decent when he was here, I don't get why he never got a shot

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
