my wife left me

good trade i guess. feel like this was under a lot of acgm asks

A 25 first? Doesn’t the hawks need one sooner

Wow another bad day for clowns on CF who were saying these two would get a huge return and laughed at my offers, only to get less than i proposed. Boom

Terrific.

The East is just stupid lmao

Great trade for the Leafs. LETS GO

Toronto trading all these assets just to blow 3-1 lead.

Both guys come with term. I think it’s a win. Especially what other teams that rhyme with Bampa Tay just paid.

I'm giving Dubas the W here for sure. Certainly better than the Orlov trade.

mccabe for 2m until 2025 and lafferty for next year is why im ok with this

I was a bit worried first when the tweet dropped, but with 50% retained on McCabe and both players having term, the players going out being throwaways/reclamation projects at best and a protected pick with late-round draft capital coming back, this actually looks very decent for how wild the market has been.

I find it funny how I predicted this would happen right after the ROR trade

As this is a Dubas move

McCabe + Lafferty just screamed Dubas one stop shopping

Both sides got a nice return and Leafs get 3 years of McCabe and 2 years of Lafferty

Accurate

We used to say this about the East last decade when it was between the Hawks and Kings every year.

50% retained for the remaining years of McCabe's contract is insane.

Masterclass by Dubas.

so what ur saying is that the Leafs r gonna be so bad in the future i may actually become a habs fan

Maples leafs W idc

What? Your offer on that post is less than this trade.

I'm surprised the Oilers weren't in on these two players.

If you think a late 2025 1st is worth more than Topi (or even close frankly) your eval is WAY off

I’m ok with the return of 2nd for Laf and 1st for McCabe.

3 1sts in ‘22, 2 in ‘23, 2 in ‘24, 2 in ‘25… steady stream of higher end prospects for a long time. That’ll be essential to open the window and keep it open for a while.

I think it's a pretty fair deal. Both teams got they what they wanted and needed.

L by Davidson. Mccabe 50% retained for a couple years is worth a first and second alone. Basically making it Lafferrty for an echler and an ahl tweener. Even worse is that CHI wont get those picks for a long time. Davidson couldnt even get 1 player under 21?

I just realized that according to Brisebois... the difference between Jennot and Mccabe, ROR, Lafferty, Accairi and 2 5ths is a first and a second

I think it's a fair deal, Toronto gets players with term who can help their cup run and Chicago gets more assets

Toronto's next GM is the biggest looser in this trade.

Only 2 top 60 picks in the next 4 drafts? I see a 1st round exit and a firesale in their future.
