Confirmed with Link: [TOR/CHI]Spencer Abbott for TJ Brennan

[WilliamNylander]

I wonder if he gets some games with the Leafs.

Hes better than Holzer, Granberg (who is still young) and arguably Robidas.

 

[Stats01]

Just letting all of you know...Brennan is on a one way deal apparently. He'll be on the Leafs.

 

[AustonMitchWilly]

dinger trade

He's a completely different defenseman

 

[Stats01]

Chicago cleared out a contract spot. Probably going to go after Vermette or a big name player.

One way deals mean nothing.

 

[SprDaVE]

Brennan is pretty garbage defensively though. He's all offense. He's also not very mobile. Think of Kostka.

He's definitely not better then Holzer, Granberg and Robidas.

 

[Stats01]

nvm...im out of it today. Sorry guys.

 

[Gallagbi]

That just means he gets his NHL salary in the AHL

 

[maplehawk]

that has nothing to do with whether he'll be on the leafs or not

Uh, they didn't. They traded a contract for a contract..................

 

[Stats01]

like I said my bad guys haha

 

[Stats01]

Ok...........................

 

[Morguee]

Ok...........................

Never post after 4:20

 

[FlareKnight]

Welcome back TJ.

Probably means nothing, but could be a nice boost for the Marlies offense wise.

 

[diceman934]

We are trading D soon....it is the only thing that makes sense....we would need a D man to move up and one to take his place.

Polak is on the move is my guess....

 

[Commander Clueless]

We could've just signed him in the summer, and still have Abbott...

Oh well.

Hawks could be saying the same thing, but vice versa.

The #Marlies have had trouble consistently scoring on the power play this season and using 4 forwards often. #leafs

 

[ToneBone03]

The addition of Brennan is really going to boost the Marlies PP. Nylander is pumped to do some stat-padding!!

 

[Nithoniniel]

Abbott is barely worth a contract spot, so I couldn't care less that we could have signed Brennan last summer. Situations change, and if he can jumpstart the Marlies PP then it's worth it.

Like some said, I wouldn't be surprised if he sees some NHL time though.

 

[Daisy Jane]

yes he was amazing with the Marlies

yep

thanks...
hmm that is interesting. hopefully it works out

 

[TheLeafsBro]

Phaneuf trade imminent

 

[htpwn]

I had a soft spot for Abbott. Local kid who was an underdog because of his size.

Oh well. He looks to be having a bit of a difficult season this year and by the sounds of it, the Marlies could use some PP help.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Wouldn't mind keeping him around for a couple years on the Marlies. Could eat big minutes, put up big points and captain the team down there.

 

[skacore]

I always wish we gave Brennan a legit shot with the Leafs. He dominates the AHL at times, and I don't see him being any worse defensively than Gardiner is
