He has 9 points in 6 games - which is great for him. I didn't really understand the trade - other than perhaps finding Sandin a good opportunity since he was now down on the depth chart to #7 or worse. Washington is letting him just go, and good for him. But he's still got a ways to go in learning how to defend.

I liked him, and he could have been a keeper. I do get that. But i dont think he fit in toronto the way they wanted him to, rightly or otherwise. I hope he does well in Washington.

I'm watching the Leaf broadcast because I'm a masochist, but I've always liked Brind'Amour's Canes. They are so aggressive, their forecheck is relentless, their D is well positioned and they _work_. They have grit and size - but really outside of Necas and Svechnikov, they don't have a lot of finesse. I can see why they were pretty hot for a guy like Nylander.

They easily lead the league in low quality scoring chances.

Interesting bit in how hated the Irish were in Toronto for a big chunk of its history. The St. Patrick’s Day Parade was banned for more than a century.

Once they landed McCabe the left side was locked in. I think they dangled Sandin to see if they could re-stock the cupboard a bit. Landing Gustafsson and a first essentially gave them a 30 yr old Sandin and a 17 yr old Sandin for Sandin. Not a bad way to alleviate the roster jam.

I like Sandin more than most but they just couldn't fit him into the top 4 and Gio is such a nice affordable lock on the left side in the bottom pair.
