Sujet: Toronto Maple Leafs signed Ilya Mikheyev (2 Years / $1,645,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>I expected 1@1.450. The fact that we got an extra year for just a tiny bit more is near miraculous. This is a phenomenal contract.

Sujet: Leafs 2021 as is with Mik and Dermott
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>rockybaker</b></div><div>Kyle Dubas in an interview with the Toronto Star:

On the weekend, Leafs GM Kyle Dubas said he was confident the Mikheyev arbitration would work out favourably.
“Whether we have to go with a 20 men on the roster to start (instead of 23), or sending guys down to play for the Marlies rather than sitting out for us … it doesn’t appear that we’ll need to move anybody else out,” Dubas said on a conference call. “We’ve got the arbitration case with Mikheyev on Wednesday and then subsequently we’ll get Travis’s situation rectified and taken care of. But, at this point, we don’t anticipate having to move anybody out.”</div></div>

I don’t see anywhere in there him saying yeah we are going to give Dermott more than Mikheyev.... even though he has no arb rights or leverage.

Sujet: Who Won this trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Shifttee</b></div><div>It is hard to say NYR didn't win this trade flat out, Fox looked like a legit top 4 d-man as a rookie
(and giving up 2 seconds for him was a win, COL paid 2 seconds for D.Toews, personally I like Fox better)

With that aside:

The return on Fox alone was pretty great for a guy that wouldn't sign with us,
But actually seeing the pieces it turned into, is kind of phenominal.

Carolina has had one of the best overall drafts 2 years running, and now is top 5 deepest prospect pools hands down.
And this trade was legitamately a huge part of that.

(and yes, they're just prospects, and maybe all 3 flop at the NHL level)

But this is pretty nice now that we can see what we actually got for Fox.</div></div>

Rangers 100%. Unfortunately canes lost when they drafted fox, no fault of their own.
