The Trade: My Instant Reaction

The Leafs did a deal. You can read the breaking news story here:

In:

  • Ryan O’Reilly
  • Noel Acciari
  • Draft rights for Josh Pillar

Out:

  • Adam Gaudette
  • Mikhail Abramov
  • Four draft picks, one each from the first four rounds from various years

The Price

I’m going to run down this part first because I think it’s largely irrelevant.

Adam Gaudette: he’s capable of NHL play, could play on the Leafs, doesn’t add anything other, younger players don’t, so he was top of my list to be moved to free up a contract space.
