Confirmed Trade: [WPG/TOR] Nic Petan for Par Lindholm

[tornado24]

can we boil this entire thread down to one sentence so i don't have to read 341 posts?

Both teams thought their player sucked and both teams now hope their new player sucks less than the previous player.

Lindholm describes himself today as a solid two way player.

Lindholm describes himself today as a solid two way player.

That would imply he has offense to his game.

Lindholm describes himself today as a solid two way player.

In that he can skate both ways?

I thought Lindholm was pretty effective in October - November. Seemed to create chances but not a lot went in for him. The last few months he’s been invisible. Not sure what happened to him.

Confidence.

Both players needed a change of address it sounds like.

Petan scored in his first game for the Leafs. Nice start.

In only 60 less games!

Does Petan keep his head down often? He got rocked looking the other way.

Has a great shot though. Nice to see him score in his first game for us.

Did anyone catch the Leafs execs laughing after Petan's goal? On the slim chance he turns into an impact player, that wry giggling after his first goal will be remembered.

I thought the leafs won the cup when Petan scored the way they were all celly in that suite up there.

Good for Petan! Wish he got a better opportunity with the Jets.

Haha emotions are bad and we should make fun of people!

 

[MardyBum]

I hope he goes goal per game for the rest of the year.

I think there's already a little battle developing between the FO and Babs on him. Babcock's quotes indicated that he was asked to give him a shot by the teams scouts. So I'm sure whichever exec (Reid Mitchell most likely) that pushed him was enjoying that moment.

I think in Babcock's world the 4th line should be a lot tougher than the Leafs personnel, but the front office is going to keep bringing in skill (Ennis, Moore, Petan) to force a different look.

This post pretty much sums it up perfectly for me.

You got a low standard for what a "celly" is my dude

He wasn't laughing only patting his assistant on the back. Chances are his assistant had the idea.

Petan for Lindholm was a shrewd move by Leafs Management with potential to pay some solid dividends. He scored a go-ahead, GWG in a big divisional game, they were happy to see it pay off....and it wasn't that much of a reaction.

It would be funny if Petan puts it together in Toronto and could become a contributor on that squad, because Winnipeg fans absolutely hate Toronto and although they want to see Nic succeed elsewhere, I don't think they want to see it happen in the 6ix

 

[Gurilla]

Really happy for Petan tonight. He's had such a rough year with his father passing. Really hope he works with Toronto.

 

[Jay haller]

What a fleecing!

 

[Tom ServoMST3K]

Yay Petan!

I think most WPG fans are wishing him good luck in the future. It was clear he wasn't going to pan out in a Jets uniform.
