That team has had him for almost a week of practice. That’s plenty for them. No more!
Rumor: Kyle Dubas travels to to NYC to take in the flames vs rangers game. Why?

I hate this team
He's probaly the biggest reason why we get there considering he plays and faces more shots than any other goalie. We have a young team in front still having to learn the game at the nhl level. I'd take a top 10 goalie over a top 10 winger any day. Now add in a top prospect like kapanen Id say we didn't lose that trade.
Id take a top 10 goalie over a top 10 winger. Plus we got a top prospect who is starting to show what he can do even if it's early. We didn't lose the trade. Sorry but we didn't.
Again. We didn’t get Andersen in the kessel deal. We got him after.
Even disregarding any of that... no way we finish last place and get Matthews if Kessel is still on the team. That alone leaves me with no regrets. Could we have gotten more from the trade? I think so... but Kessel's no-trade list really limited the amount of options and in the end it worked out for everyone involved so I am happy.
You’re missing the point. Pittsburgh won the kessel trade. Which was my whole point to begin with. It was a bad trade(one that had to be made though). But Anything that happens after has nothing to do with the Pittsburgh trade.
Nope but we got their 1st. You can't look at a trade like this and determine who won it at the beginning. You have to see how the assets turn out from the trade you can't determine right when it happens bc we were in rebuild mode and they weren't.

LHD:
Provy
Ghost
Sanheim
Hagg
AMac
Morin(hurt)
RHD:
Gudas
Folin
According to capfriendly, Gudas, Folin, Ghost, AMac and Sanheim make up the right handlers, while Provy and Hagg make up the LD
Of course you can. It was a bad trade. I’m talking the actual trade. Not anything that happened after. Just because you want to look at it 3 years later after a couple of pieces were shuffled elsewhere doesn’t mean it wasn’t a bad trade.

Gudas and Gostisbehere play on the right side. Gostisbehere is a lefty while Gudas is a righty. Sanheim has played RD in the AHL, but he's played better on his natural handed side. Hagg and MacDonald both have played RD. Whether or not those two look better on their off sides is a matter for debate that no one wants to have.
Folin and Gudas are the only two Flyers RHD in the NHL. Friedman and Myers are two righties who are relatively close to promotion.

Boston didn't get Seguin and Hamilton in the Kessel deal either.
Yeah that's how you look at a trade when one team was rebuilding and the other wasn't.
Well that’s how you look at a trade. But not all do.
Thanks for the convo. I’m done for the night.

So the Leafs give up a cost controlled fantastic winger for a 3rd and a UFA inferior winger...?
Why?
If Nylander was 'cost-controlled' hed be playing NHL hockey right now.
That being said, thats a terrible deal.
