Top 5 protected. Great deal for the sens. Disappointed the Leafs didn't figure out a way to make something like that work

A 1st and 2 2nds? What the hell!

Seriously?

I guess they're set on D now if they didn't want to give up that for Chychrun.

Onto a 2LW I guess.

- Leaffrog


Bear in mind that Ottawa's 1st is likely in the top-15. That's a lot less than everyone said the Coyotes wanted, though, so it's a coup for Dorion.

Yeah, they had the cap space to fit him, so should pay off.

But they don't need it. This isn't a team that should be retooling. They are beyond the (frank)ed-wall.

Remember in 2003 when the Leafs traded away EVERYTHING at the trade deadline? Like they Housley and Wesley and Gilmour and, and, and . . I can't even remember what else. Nolan? Anyway, then in 2004 the lockout comes. 29 teams in the NHL were like the squirrel in that fable with the squirrel and the grasshopper.

We had nothing. We were beyond the (frank)ed-wall. No prospects to step in, so we had to go out and overpay for has-beens to come here and almost be. Because of poor management stacked on top of poor management it took 10 years after this for someone to come along and point out that there's no coming back once you're over the (frank)ed wall. You're (frank)ed.

So you begin the process of blowing up everything you have so that you can get good stuff that helps you over the wall.

Vancouver has been teetering for a few years now, but they're over - and everyone knows it. Everyone but them, it would seem.

Their fanbase would never support a full rebuild, unfortunately. Worst fans ever. I remember when I moved to BC they had a great team, then after one bad season around .500, people were actually talking about relocation.
As a leafs fan, I was like “wait, this is a good year for us, and we still sellout games”
I get your point though…..

Sucks he's in our division but it's nice to know the Leafs will never see him in the playoffs

If the dominoes fall in Arizonas favour that 1st can be the 6th overall.

The Leafs didn't have a pick that could end up being as high as 6th, or anywhere close to it.

The 2nd becomes a top 10 protected in 2024 if they reach ECF this year. Which is wild considering they likely won't make the playoffs at all.

This deal could turn into a Kessel like deal.

Sens risk it a bit here. If they end up drafting mid 1st round I think its a win.

They can still make the playoffs

If they trade for Demko or Saros, oh boy

Devils making their pick top two protected was even funnier
