Galchenyuk going for all 31 teams

 

[Mike Jones]

Is this the guy Fridge had written down when he was recently on Tim and Sid?

 

[Saitama]

Bet Galchenyuk is going to flourish on the Leafs.

 

[Asinine]

Galchenyuk better not get too comfortable.

 

[Michael HOMERUNing]

Dubas and his reclamation projects

I doubt it. They said a top 6 forward.

 

[TheHelmet]

Can we confirm this isnt some sort of Catphishing scheme.

 

[zar]

Russian Roulette!

Yes, I know Galchenyuk is American.

I am surprised with the fact Korshkov was scoring at an 82 point pace in the NHL last year.

In all seriousness.... why? Galchenyuk doesn't seem like the kind of player the Leafs should be targeting.

 

[Magic Man]

Korshkov really? He was waived though?

 

[Michael HOMERUNing]

I hope not

 

[CanadienShark]

I mean why not. He was a 30 goal scorer not too long ago. I'll be mighty pissed if he carves out a decent end in Toronto though.

 

[cyris]

WTF???

Why? We didn’t give up anything but this guy sucks.

 

[smitty10]

Depth or freeing up contract space?

 

[CatchyTune]

what on earth

 

[Toronto makebeleifs]

I dislike this. I dunno if korshkov becomes what he was ever projected to be... but we KNOW gally won't pan out to what he's supposed to be.

 

[Taluss]

Man I like Chucky. Why do I have to root against him now. The Leafs have a few players I actually like now smh.

 

[sxvnert]

Neither Korshkov and Warsofsky were in the leafs plans so this deal is essentially junk for junk.

 

[Unbiased Fan]

Depth or freeing up contract space?

Both I’d say. I’d say Galchenyuk is a upgrade on Vesey. I hope

 

[PullHard]

Galchenyuk - Matthews - Marner
Spooner - Tavares - Nylander
Hyman - Kerfoot - Glennie
Heatley - Spezza - Alfredsson

 

[dubey]

Another #1C lets go!

Eh. He's basically an AHler or 4th liner at best at 24. I don't think this is a big risk.

 

[smitty10]

He's definitely not. Galchenyuk has been a scratch in Ottawa. Think about that..

 

[Cogburn]

Really? Huh, neat.

I hope it works out.

 

[sansabri]

Bet Galchenyuk is going to flourish on the Leafs.

bet he won't
