[Leafidelity]

uh Wow

 

[TMLeafer]

Holy crap!

Kept Kneis which is .. kneis.
75% (double) retention

 

[SprDaVE]

This addresses the Leafs depth in a huge way without giving up anything of value other than the 1st and 2nd round picks.

 

[MoreMogilny]

Wow that’s huge. Down year for him but he brings a lot to the table

 

[Bomber0104]

All in, here we go.

 

[leafsfan5]

That's a huge deal

Matthews - Tavares - ROR

Good luck matching up Tampa

 

[Aashir Mallik]

Praying that this isn’t a foligno type situarion

ROR just came back from injury, hopefully he can give that 3rd line some spark

 

[Eye Test]

Accari is great depth too, hope Ryan still has gas left. Who did we lose?

 

[LeafSteel]

Speechless.

This needs to sink in…

 

[Jozay]

1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th thats a fair bit.

But that really improves the forward depth.

 

[as Pure as Evil]

Naysayers are where ??

 

[Leaffan1991]

Hell yeah, this is the big bold move you need to make to go far. Way to go dubas not losing any good prospects

2 goals and 3 points in 3 games since coming back. Seems to be doing ok.

He's also been over 60% on faceoffs in those 3 games.

 

[hamzarocks]

If we can't sign him back in the summer or lose in the 1st again then barf

If we get him back or win a round then kudos to dubas

 

[Budz22]

What

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

This is almost exactly the right sort of move to make. Whether this specifically was the right choice remains to be seen, but this was a huge swing

 

[TMLeafer]

ROR just came back from injury, hopefully he can give that 3rd line some spark

That's my biggest worry..

 

[Menzinger]

And all the top prospects sill in the system...

Could see ROR and Knies on the same line come the playoffs lol

 

[Bomber0104]

Naysayers are where ??

Who said we couldn't trade all the picks we have to spend?

This was an option.

Hope we chose the right player...

 

[crump]

Common trades!

There's the experience and grit we need. Nice.
