I like Bert. But I make this trade from the Leafs side of things. Graves definitely adds a lot of tools that the Leafs can use on the blue line. They can also benefit from those 2 x 2nd round picks also.

I don't see why Pits does this though.

Pits have 4 really good dmen and a bunch of swiss cheese outside of that. They shouldn't be trading one of their best dmen.

Leafs can't trade Bert. Keefe needs someone to yell at.

Quoting: TMLBRIAN

Graves has been very underwhelming, makes really stupid passes and turnovers leading to breakaways or odd man rushes, like more then karlsson or letang have. i dont know the stats but it feels that way at least (could be that his turnovers lead to goals more often). Several times over the past couple games hes been demoted to the 3rd pairing. Also the guy is a sniper when it comes to shin pads.
