Confirmed Trade: [TOR/CBJ/SJS] N. Foligno (75% retained), S. Noesen to TOR; '21 1st and '22 4th to CBJ; '21 4th to SJ

I actually like this for the Leafs. Foligno is a strong, gritty player who is built for playoffs. This deal just made Leafs harder to play against. I rather have Foligno than a 25-30 pick when I already have a great offensive team.

 

[BlueBaron]

It's more possible than if he were traded to just about any other team, but we're all still pretty sure it's far more likely he comes back to Columbus.

I agree. I feel like he's probably going back to Ohio but we have the best chance of stopping it, especially if we have a good run.

Imagine thinking a captain traded at a 75% discount for a 1st is an overpay.

 

[McVespa99]

He makes up for it with solid late round drafting.

Cool. Then it wont be a problem going forward

It’s because everyone thinks if you’re not a PPG player then you’re worthless

I won't lie, he got more than I thought he would, i thought the flat cap would drive down trade values

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Pretty happy with the early returns

You did not provide a link in your thread though and it had a Lebrun tag.

You need to provide links, as it was mentioned in the post that closed it.

Just a good hockey player,was sad when we traded him...But that deal turned out to be one of the fairest 1 for 1 deals we had done...The Leafs just seem like the right fit for him now though,and he will help them

 

[c_mak]

This is good trade for Toronto. I hate to say it but they are looking pretty complete top t bottom. If Campbell can be their guy in net look out.

Who is Brian Burke?

*ding ding ding ding*

Told you Leafs fans you'd like Foligno. He's a very good player.

You can see the flashes of skill he has but there’s huge consistency issues but within himself and outside circumstances.

I thought he was okay. Just okay.

 

[Petrus]

Told you Leafs fans you'd like Foligno. He's a very good player.

I think he’s look great with Matthews and Marner! He is defensively responsible. I feel like with ever shift he puts a full and honest effort in. I hope his approach and attitude rubs of on all the young players.

He's been great so far, when he's on the ice it feels safe like the other team is not going to score.

If it doesn't, it's on the player...foligno plays his ass off, and heart out

Thank god you were there to convince some of the most educated hockey fans on the planet that Foligno would be a fan favourite.

I try. I hope it was appreciated

You doubt...you hope. Leaf haters aren't special to us. No need to announce yourself.
