A move to toughen up the D which is fine. He was fine as a Marlie a couple of years ago. They just didn't want to pay what Ducks organization was willing to. And now they are.

Here is the trade when the Leafs acquired Oleksy in 2017

March 1, 2017:
Traded to Toronto by Pittsburgh with Eric Fehr and Pittsburgh's 4th round pick in 2017 NHL Draft for Frank Corrado.

The Leafs traded Fehr for a 7th round pick in 2020. And they resigned Corrado as a free agent.

But why? Don't we have enough D men

Liljegren is out for a bit and Sandin is about to leave for a month or so. Marlies added some forward depth recently, so I think they wanted better quality on defence.

Growlers are also doing really well, so I think they want to keep that team stacked without calling anybody up.

Maybe were going to try the same thing with Sandin?
What the **** is LoVerde doing then since he's a vet RD? Shouldn't that be his job
Loverde hasn't been good. As Sea Of Blue said, he is the most aggressive defensive d man you will find which is not a good thing.

Oleksy is a $600k Marlie. This was not an idle thought.
