Big F$&*in Q
Leafs are gonna say they don't have room for Brown on their roster but every team in the league does.
They only have one guy like him in Zach Hyman.

Brown was a cap casualty because of Zaitsev's contract. Toronto did not want to get rid of him
Lol ya it is a trade Dorion won so let's quietly celebrate thatTrading away Brown to get rid of Zaitsev and then trading a 1st to get rid of Marleau? I thought those guys over there were geniuses.

Is anyone else also not even mad about having Zaitsev and his contract? Only 3 more seasons at 4.5. I get that stats guys hate him but he's relatively steady and seems to have improved a bit this year. Not to mention he's likely been a big factor in Zub's successful transition. The fact that we got Brown for taking him is pretty great.
I think a lot of leaf fans really would have wanted to keep brown and kadriLeafs are gonna say they don't have room for Brown on their roster but every team in the league does.
Hyman seems to be that kind of player too, much like Brown.Funnily enough, Kadri and Brown are the exact type of players the leafs need in their forward core, relentless hustle and grit. Now they're stuck looking for value deals until the big 4 era is gone
Not to mention what we're seeing out of him this year is above and beyond his track record even with us so far.Brown also wasn’t the same player with the Leafs, he really began to excel here. He credited DJ for that which is also worth noting.
If they keep those 2, I think they win the cup. Dubas is a bad GM - overpaid just about everyone on that roster, traded away the types of guys they needed to win, hasn't secured an appropriate defense corps, promoted a rookie coach, signed over the hill vets who contribute little to nothing. They don't win this year that team is toast. Inept roster management from top to bottom.Funnily enough, Kadri and Brown are the exact type of players the leafs need in their forward core, relentless hustle and grit.

Kadri did make it tough on them. I don't think the right call was to move him right away over that, but it was a dumb shit move on his part. You have to walk the line as that kind of player, not cross it and potentially cost your team a series.
Yup, as soon as you saw the return it was just more of the same for them. Dubas seems to want to fill his roster with only skill, but that just doesn't really work.Trading Kadri made sense after that dumbass suspension in the playoffs.
Its who they got for him that was brutal. Anyone with a brain knew Barrie wasn't what the Leafs needed. They already had Reilly on PP1 so Barrie's talents were basically wasted in a role he shouldnt be in.
I think Dubas is pretty overrated as a talent evaluator. So many moves have me scratching my head.

For sure you do, and get an opportunity like he has in Ottawa. Who knows what his career looks like right now had he stayed in Toronto where the opportunity was going to be a lot less.You have to believe you can make plays before you can make them....i think Brown is just coming into his own and will be a solid producer for a few years. Great add for us.
Funny thing is he was actually producing points at a higher pace last season but his goal scoring is way up this year.You have to believe you can make plays before you can make them....i think Brown is just coming into his own and will be a solid producer for a few years. Great add for us.
aI got 99 problems but Zaitsev aint 1
