Confirmed Trade: [BOS/MIN] Pat Maroon for Luke Toporowski, 2026 cond. 6th round pick

[A1LeafNation]

Guess Boston didn't like Leafs putting Marchand and McAvoy on their back all game last night.

 

[ToDavid]

To terrorize the Leafs in the 1st round, of course.

He's got the most important skillset, the ability to board guys and not get penalized for it.

Lmao this is so sad

I think it's more a product of the last 4-5 years lol but whatever helps you sleep at night

 

[WarriorofTime]

Conditional Pick for a lucky charm

 

[SEALBound]

Actually a very good ad for Boston, provided Maroon can play well.

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Injury probably killed his value. Would've probably brought something decent back otherwise, the way he was playing.

Yeah, the Bs seemed terrified while they were sweeping the Leafs last night

 

[The Hockey Tonk Man]

Love it for the B's
add some toughness they've seriously been missing since Looch

 

[KnightofBoston]

well, probably should have done this 5 years ago but, no bad ideas in a brainstorm I guess!

 

[Dizzay]

What else does Don have up his sleeve?

 

[KnightofBoston]

Lets see if Jack Edwards calls him fat to his face

well if he was going to, it would have been in their actual meeting in the locker-room where Jackie boy apologized. Totally took the bait considering FatPat was trolling him

I don't think they need to worry when the Leafs core 4 is willingly laying on theirs vs the Bruins

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

Boston fishing for Cup juju, that's the only way I can justify this deal for them

::Cough:: LTIR ::Cough::

Bruins have no cap space for him atm.
Coming in on LTIR that gives them a bit of room for more deals today.
He can recoup as long as he wants and pull a Tampa/Vegas after the regular season is over.

 

[Eddie Munson]

He’s about to take Jack Edwards lunch money

the core's gotta have a spine before they can occasionally lay on it.

Maybe not, but we Bruins fans sure did enjoy the last two games.

[FrozenKing18]

It’s gotta be a games played or whatever due to the injury.

 

[BagHead]

I have to imagine the condition on the pick is due to Maroon's health? Guess we'll see.

I enjoyed Maroon on the Wild this year, while it lasted. He has no speed anymore, but he's still got his hands and size to protect the puck with when he's carrying it, which he does pretty well. The result is that you're watching him and thinking this must be a slow motion replay, but the rest of the play around him is happening at normal speed. It's a really trippy, comical effect.

[Pandaman11]

In a perfect world, he would have been traded for Jack Edwards.

How is this scenario perfect for anyone in Minnesota?
