He hasn’t been great this year but maybe that will change when playing in a better defensive system in BOS

How much moves have happened in the last few days?

The real winner here is me since I finally didn't miss a big move this week.

Wow is the market nuts. That is a lot. This is a big bet on a Lindholm bounceback because he has been struggling of late.

The market is BONKERS

With Moore going the other way the value isnt as bad as I originally thought, but thats still a haul for ANA. Im kinda confused on what BOS is doing with their LD, can any of Grz, Rielly, Forbort, or Lindholm play the right side?

Most likely includes an extension to boot. At least they're reportedly working on it.

Its a lot, but if they extend him then its decent. Considering Lindholm supposedly wants max term, Rielly is probably a good comparable at 7.5 mil x 8 years

Sweeney would have screwed up the picks anyway but that’s a massive over payment

SAVE SOME ACTION FOR MONDAY

Huge W for the Ducks.

I love the return for us. I hope it was so high because Lindholm and the Bruins negotiated an extension in the past 24 hours. In that case, it's a win-win for both teams.

"Good afternoon, trade deadline class, today's theme is 'Overpayment'"

God dam

This year has really been a sellers market.

Normally I would be unhappy with everyone in the division around TOR making moves, but I'm okay with not paying these prices. Crazy this year.

Eastern Confrence playoffs are going to be insane

RIP Leafs

I hope this works out for us

Let's break it down.



One of the 2nd round picks is used as an incentive to take on John Moore.

And Kodie Curran is someone the Bruins could have claimed off waivers last October.



So that means the trade should be looked at like this:


Lindholm

for

1st round pick
2nd round pick
Urho



I made a post last Tuesday where Lindholm was sent to the Leafs for just Nick Robertson and a 1st round pick.

It was seen as a fair deal.

What Boston paid here is worth more than that.



I voted for the Anaheim Ducks.

PAT VERBEEK MAGIC

okay lindholm's good, but is he worth three picks and a young guy? no

IS KODIE CURRAN WORTH THAT? YES

Don Sweeney is nuts.

Surprised Debrusk wasnt going the other way

Huge W for the Ducks, Verbeek era off to an amazing start
