Toronto Maple Leafs acquire Ilya Lyubushkin from Ducks, is another move coming? | Trade Analysis

The Toronto Maple Leafs have swung a trade for a defenceman to help their depleted blue line. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti give their thoughts on the Leafs trading for Ilya Lyubushkin from the Anaheim Ducks looking at what Toronto had to give up in the deal. They debate whether the Leafs should be done adding to their blue line with the trade deadline a week away. To end the show, Mike and Dave give their thoughts on the Leafs getting a rare victory at home against the Arizona Coyotes giving props to Mitch Marner, Joseph Woll, Ryan Reaves and Matthew Knies for the role they played in the victory.

  1. This can't be it. This is depth at best. There must be more coming. Up to date stats before being traded from Anaheim to Toronto

    55GP – 0G – 4A

    51 PIMS (-13)

    Averaged 17:08 TOI – all ice time came at ES and PK.

    Credited with 112 hits / 138 shot blocks

    Predictable player. Bottom pairing – right shot – defenceman who can match up against middle six forwards and find a role on the penalty kill.

    Average plus skater. Below average puck skill. Very limited making plays. Simple is best. Glass and out when nothing available.

    Expiring contract – Pending UFA.

  2. This is a joke they had this guy before they got rid of him . Oh well another first round exit again they will never win the cup.

  3. Frankly, I don't think they shoulda let him walk last time around. Hopefully he cements his spot on the team and excels

  4. Hey Mikey, you know that calm feeling you get from Woll, the team has to feel that too. For that reason, I would start the Woll game one.

  5. Definitely another move coming. They would be crazy not to spend up to the cap considering the relief they are getting from LTIR. Let’s go!

  6. Just a tidy little piece of business…probably wanted to re-sign him back when but got a bigger deal elsewhere than the Leafs could've afforded

  7. Tanev had 25 hits in 56 games not overly physical and 170 blocked shot while Lyubushkin had 112 hits and 138 blocked shots

  8. It was a smart move by Treviling if you think about it Toronto didn't give up muck at all probably there looking for another D man and possibly a forward a strong player Go Leafs Go
