Leafs swing big for impact winger

Return would be significant for Konecny.

Proceeds to make a non significant trade. Typical.

Proceeds to be an idiot, typical.
That return is pretty significant imo, but open to suggestions.

see, we dont need a top line guy, we just need someone who is consistent like bunting was last year

Engvall sucks hence why he’s always in trades. Good prospect nothing special. 1st is meh as it will be late and the 2nd meh as well. So the only thing decent out of this trade is the B prospect at best and the 1st. How is this significant in your opinion?

I don’t think we need a star, but we need an impact winger. I don’t consider Konecny a top line guy; he’s a career 20-25 goals, 50-60 point guy - a good 2nd line winger but under team control for 3 years on a reasonable (not great) contract so have to give up a lot.
Could also target a better player like O’Reilly or Tarasenko or Horvat (not a winger) but they’d all be rentals .
