Boyle to Toronto per McKenzie

On my phone and can't paste the link, anyone care to do it?

 

[Paralyzer]

Waiting for over payment. 1st+

 

[Gecklund]

Probably a few seconds. Don't they have like 3 this draft?

 

[Territory]

Don't be a 1st don't be a 1st don't be a 1st.

[Butchered]

Need a dman! I expect a second rounder.

 

[Martyros]

it's gotta be Mitch Marner and Austin Matthews for sure.

 

[Maukkis]

A conditional second should be a given at this point, if they are talking picks. Most likely the highest one of the three, as all three are likely to be from a playoff team.

 

[Coaches Coroner]

Oh no, we're going to give up an arm and a leg aren't we?

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Should be a good fit in Toronto

 

[MosTLucky]

Kinda surprised he's going to TOR

They had tree. One already went to the Ducks in the Andersen trade (and moved on to Dallas for Eaves).

i dont know if boyle is worth 2 2nds though, maybe 2nd+spec?

 

[Empoleon8771]

The Leafs are throwing together a really good center group, but this might be a bad move if they get bumped out of the playoffs by the Islanders or Panthers.

 

[Reddwit]

SUCH a Babcock player.

"The thing about Boyle is, he's 6'7" every shift."

 

[ThatGuy]

truculence!

 

[Territory]

HUGE upgrade on smith.

But Leafs shouldn't be buying, imo.

Maybe management thinks playoff experience is more valueable to the Leafs rookies than a 2nd round pick or whatever the cost is gonna be.

 

[Oberyn]

I'm guessing two of their highest seconds for Boyle and a 4th

 

[Commander Clueless]

I think Boyle could add a lot to the team, but I don't think the team's ready for "buying".

Really hope this isn't pricey....

 

[Curufinwe]

Oh no, we're going to give up an arm and a leg aren't we?

Well they already have Greg McKegg.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Alright, so bye bye Bozak then. We better resign him.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

I wonder what for

I think its pretty genius to get guys like Matthews and Marner some playoff experience as soon as possible and instill the belief that they are a playoff team every year. Its a smart move in the long run.
