Give up Andersen and replace him with... Koskinenn? Hard no. Rielly for Nurse? GTFO. Kassian for Kapanen and veranneau is the only part of that trade that makes any sense.

the hardest of no's from Toronto
That trade is a down grade on all levels

I think Holland will do some sort of trade since we lost, but I don’t think it would be that. I don’t think it will be that big of a shake up! And why would Toronto accept that?

Leafs giggle and Hang up

cgy dosnt want russel just 2 trade him 2 wpg for a guy they wouldnt get cause kris's contract is terrible

So what you are saying is that the $2 million in Cap Space gained, the positive metrics + top 20 numbers & minutes that Nurse has produced for 3 straight seasons + his relationship with Dubas, Koskinen's superior in-season numbers and championship pedigree are irrelevant to rationale.

My bad, I guess I never really thought this through like everyone else..... Hockey just must not be my thing 😢

I forgot to add, the Flames eat $750,000, and pkg Jankowski as well. Russell only makes $1.5 million and Wpg ends up paying $0.00 for Russell.

Wpg is a hard cap team, they would take this deal in a heartbeat. But, what do I know.

So many experts on this site....

Did you really just trade your hardest working player (Archibald)?

I don’t think Buffalo needs another goaltending prospect, but Archibald works for me. Maybe there’s another forward prospect you can throw in instead?

Let me dumb it down for you.

Rielly > Nurse
Andersen > Koskinnen
Kapanen + Veranneau = Kassian.

that's a huge loss for the Leafs. Rielly is a top 10 LHD in this league. Name me ten better LEFT handed dmen.
