Confirmed Trade: [EDM/TOR] 2020 conditional 7th round pick for Nolan Vesey

[KarmaPolice]

Ah yes the good old conditional 7th round pick. Essentially a cheese sandwich.

Mmmmm, a cheese sandwich. I'll give you a 2nd for that cheese sandwich!


This is probably seen as possible future AHL depth, nothing more.

 

[67Blues]

They must have their eye on someone in the 7th round to make that risky of a trade. They just hope no one sees them trying to sneak him through and picks him up in the sixth round!

 

[lawrence]

GM JB out GM'ed yet again.

 

[VainGretzky]

I wonder how that pick works out in 2026

 

[Voodoo Child]

I mean it's something right? A low value asset for a low percentage pick.

I expect this to be an unusually active summer for the league, given Vegas and the larger than average cap hike, if this is the Confederacy firing on Fort Sumter to start this summer, I'm down.

 

[McDNicks17]

Vesey for the last pick in the 2020 draft.

 

[bukwas]

Kyle "The Gunslinger" Dubas.

 

[HydroF]

So basically Toronto just didn't want him, and Edmonton said "mind if we give him a look?" And Toronto said sure.

 

[ThreeOfAPerfectPair]

Kyle "The Gunslinger" Dubas.

100% win ratio so far.

 

[Genuflexion]

Ah yes the good old conditional 7th round pick. Essentially a cheese sandwich.

Don't insult cheese sandwiches like that

 

[Magic Man]

Not bad of the Leafs to get something for someone who wasn't going to sign.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Earlier this season when Lamoriello was the Leafs GM, he traded Eric Fehr to San Jose for a 7th round pick in 2020.

2020 is an insanely deep draft. So deep in fact that 7th rounders will produce stars. The other 30 teams can't see that the Leafs are cornering the market.

 

[RebuildinVan]

The fact it's CONDITIONAL makes it laugh worthy. It's basically trading a player for hockey pucks.

Its closer to trading a bag of pucks for half a bag of pucks and a skate blade

Edmonton Oilers acquire the rights to Nolan Vesey from the Maple Leafs

I have nothing against young Nolan, but with his stats as an NCAA graduate, you look at that and think he might make your AHL roster on a good day. So, I say again, LOL Oilers, what are you doing.

You realize this means Dubas has Chia on speed dial, though.

The Condors are a sad sack - lacking in ANY forward offensive skill... all grinders. Any young blood would help. Benson and Yammer next season will also improve the team.

 

[BoredBrandonPridham]

Looks like they signed him:

 

[Bounces R Way]

There is not an instrument existing that can measure my indifference to this news.

When asked what the ramifications could be of such a big splash, resident smartest man in the room Peter Chiarelli remarked that he's almost all set to open up the diamond mine.

 

[Bruce Granville]

Blockbuster.
But who lost/won the deal?

 

[Funk21]

A pick for somebody we would have never signed, win. Now if we can trade the "Goat" for a second to MB, Dubas will have the only two numbers he ever needs to get picks for useless assets. Remember MB:

• He's French Canadian
• He's Big 6"4
• He's a Centre
• He's a Character Guy
• He's a Former 1st!!!!!

GOAT?

 

[Liferleafer]

GOAT?

Gauthier.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Gauthier.

I see. Thank you for the clarification.

 

[Halla]

his big brother Jimmy Vesey could be available too if we can get a good offer.

Leivo for Vesey

Leivo has 8g/19pts in his last 41 games (over 3 years), so he can definitely produce if given a chance (which he wont get in toronto)

you think that is a good offer? insane.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

you think that is a good offer? insane.

Some Leafs fans maintain that Leivo would be a top six forward if given the chance. Unfortunately the guy is a poor skater.

The fact that the dude is 25 and has never played more than 16 games in an NHL season is irrelevant.
