Dont EVER Mess with TORONTO

We all know Lou. Add 4 1sts and he'd still say no. he loves his 4th line.

In all seriousness it's a really bad trade for New York

As a Sabres fan….
I’d do the deal for Clutterbuck, but not Kerfoot

Not a fan of the retention and the 2nd pick bein traded Eh?

Kerfoot will help Buffalo more than he helps Toronto.

N Eakin solidifies the Leafs 3rd line C on cheap meanwhile, Kerfoot makes Buffalo better overall.

Heck he could legit be their 2nd Line Center if Eichel remains N decides... For some reason? To play...

I have sympathy and pity for Buffalo.

I have sympathy for Toronto
-Every other NHL fan

Yeah, Kerfoot might be the 2C on Buffalo of Eichel is traded
But that’s not saying much

And while he is a better player (i think?) than Eakin….
I don’t want his “help” for a couple reasons:
1- i don’t see him playing a role in the future for us
2- we aren’t trying to be good this year…. tank on
3- since we obviously (imo) are gonna stink, I’m not trading a high 2nd in a loaded draft for an ok 3rd line talent that’s not gonna be here long term

It’s just not a trade that makes sense for where we are at,
which is starting a new rebuild (ugh)
