[Wild Caniac]

Pending call. Gleason to Toronto for Liles and Robertson (d-man).

 

[Brock Anton]

Is Liles an offensive d man? What is he like???

Yep. Offensive defenseman.

 

[SeaBasstian]

Not announced till after the game, so.....COULD still be D'Amigo, right?

David Pagnotta ‏@TheFourthPeriod 41s
Told trade between Leafs & Hurricanes is being finalized/signed off and will be announced after game. Paperwork being sent to NHL shortly.

 

[Brock Anton]

Not announced till after the game, so.....COULD still be D'Amigo, right?

It's not. It's a defenseman named Robertson.

 

[Sasha Cares]

What's the salary on Liles?

 

[TheOllieC]

Dennis Robertson is a former 6th rounder playing in the NCAA I believe...

 

[Sasha Cares]

Westy and Gleason gone. Good start.

 

[Unsustainable]

What's the salary on Liles?

.1 less then Gleason

 

[What the Faulk]

What's the salary on Liles?

Capgeek.com.

Basically a 1 for 1 of guys who need new starts. I'm fine with it.

 

[Chrispy]

It's not. It's a defenseman named Robertson.

I assume that's Brown's Dennis Robertson. This season's his senior year at Brown. Wonder if Toronto was having difficulty signing him...

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Liles contract is same length as Gleasons.

$4.25M next year, $2.75 the following year ($3.875 cap hit)

vs. Gleason:

$4.5M next year, $3.5 the following year ($4M cap hit)

So only $0.1M cap savings, but about $1M in actual dollars over the next two years.

 

[Buenos Necas]

Liles has 2 additional years on his deal at a 3.875m cap hit. Actual salary is 4.25m next year and 2.75m the following year, so we save 1 mil in actual salary over the next 2 years.

 

[Wild Caniac]

I expect this ends our trades for a while. Ruutu is probably staying.

 

[Vagrant]

Ugh, we would trade for one of those Duck Dynasty dudes. Jersey sales are about to go nuts.

 

[What the Faulk]

I expect this ends our trades for a while. Ruutu is probably staying.

They still have 3 goaltenders, though I guess Cam is now hurt. Still, I expect that to get cleared up soonish.

 

[Sasha Cares]

Murphy to Char?

 

[Citizen Cane]

Yep. Offensive defenseman.

Liles was the other name getting thrown around when we signed Joni. JR's wanted to get him for literally years.

 

[Novacane]

Chip Alexander ‏@ice_chip 20s
Hearing Canes may not be through. Still could be looking for third-line center.

 

[Anton Babchuk]

Liles was the other name getting thrown around when we signed Joni. JR's wanted to get him for literally years.

and hainsey was the other other name.

 

[Buenos Necas]

Wonder what center we're after, Backlund is the only one I remember hearing so far this season.

 

[What the Faulk]

Murphy to Char?

Is that a scoring play from bizarro world?

Why would Murphy go to Charlotte? Harrison is hurt and Komisarek is just a spot start guy.

 

[Wild Caniac]

Facebook is about to lose their mind.

Also, Peters + 2nd to Calgary for Backlund????

 

[HisIceness]

Thanks Gleason, good luck in Toronto.

 

[Oenatzu]

McKenzie says neither team retained salary.
