Well if he can have a similar impact I holl (5/6 defender) it's not all bad.

Would be alright to run if we make the playoffs. Have sandin/lilijgren/Rosen as step up options in case someone sucks ass or gets injured.

I thought Rosen was supposed to jump in like Zaitsev and earn a job right away, but that never happened. Never seemed like he was really in their plans at the pro level and he didn't even get much of a sniff in Colorado...
That said, if re-acquiring Rosen means they are abandoning the Marincin experiment, they have my full blessings.
Also a massive bonus to send Hutchinson packing.

Good minor deal for depth. Rosen is a better insurance policy then Marincin, plus helps out the Marlies.

Have to wonder if he didn't get a spot because Babcock wanted it that way.

gravel is garbage why would they give him a look? I get the grit angle I can understand the want for it but it needs to be able to play in the nhl. Otherwise give Colton Orr a contract there wasn’t many grittier than him
Didn’t Rosen play right side with borgstrom when they both first played for the leafs? If I’m remembering correctly that’s a good depth piece that can play both sides.
One thing is for certain hutch wasn’t going to suit up on d or g so we essentially traded nothing to get a depth dman

Keefe said he'll start with the Marlies for now but who knows in a week or two or three.

A few things about that though. Rosen did not need waivers, so unless he was clearly the better player, it made sense for him to get sent down over others. Colorado's defense has been pretty healthy, with I think only like 20 games played by guys outside of their top 6 this year. Graves has been a revelation this year as well. Went from waiver wire to legitimate 4/5 option in one year... Which I guess is not much different than Justin Holl here.
He definitely looked like bottom pairing quality with us last year, and was an AHL All-Star under Keefe. I imagine we can fashion a quality #6/7 guy out of him at least.

Gravel has been hurt for most of the year, and hasn't been amazing when healthy. Marincin is the better defenseman between the two.

With the acquistion of Calle Rosen, the Leafs have 4 of the top 50 defensemen for points/minute this season. ..of course Leaf's lucky if even one isn't hurt.
33rd Jake Muzzin 1.24
42nd Tyson Barrie 1.19
43rd Morgan Rielly 1.17
50th Calle Rosen 1.15

Solid trade. Give credit where it is due. Give up garbage and get back a depth dman.

Liked Rosen in his limited minutes against the Panthers.
IMO there is a place in our lineup for him with our current depth. In a perfect world he was a RHD but I thought it was brilliant choosing to play 7 D Thursday night.

Ya I was shocked we got him back just for Hutch, which is basically a bag of pucks. Even just as a depth D for injury call ups, this is a big win. Hutch is done.

I actually like Rosen but let’s pump the brakes on a guy who just finished his 17 NHL game last night. Guy has less NHL experience than Rasmus Sandin.

Lol, Avs fans on twitter watching Hutchinson debut. “His rebound control looks shaky”. Oh gawd so glad he’s gone.

The Avs would have been better off with David Ayres.
You should have tweeted back, prepare for things to get significantly worse this is a good day
