   So… do we think the Leafs regret this already? Woof. Let me know, what are YOUR thoughts on the Fraser Minten trade 11 months later? How big of a steal is this for Boston? And do YOU think Toronto can still salvage this by trading Carlo? #GravGang

   Brad Treliving needs to be let go at the end of the year. This is the second franchise he has driven into the ground.

   Really depends what prospect we get in the draft with that Leafs pick, but yeah it's bad.

   The Leafs' evil Harold Ballard is smiling from his place in Hell at their continued misery.

   Didn’t understand why trade Mittens (not a typo, he had a babyface last year). All those vets didn’t pan out. Now look at his development!

   For the love of Gawd, fire Treliving! Boston is better because they got rid of Carlo and Toronto is worse because we added him.

    Brandon Carlo's attributes begin and end with, he's BIG. That's it. He never uses that BIG body to hit anyone, or move them, he's just BIG occupying a spot on the ice. 16 penalty minutes all season, wow what a great tough BIG d-man. haha.

    Minten might end up being better than Cowan

    I'd add that the Tampa Bay Lightning fleeced the Blackhawks in the Brandon Hagel trade.

    Marco Sturm is absolutely loving Minten, and i think hes trying to develop him the right way

    Let’s not overlook that Carlo was a solid piece in a (formerly) very defense-focused Bruins organization. He had been the longest-tenured Bruin at the time, and was a good shutdown defenseman and a great penalty killer- but he also played a lot of his minutes with puck movers like Charlie McAvoy and Torey Krug in the past. Without a responsible 2-way guy, his abilities are really restrained.
    At any rate great video! B’s made out like BANDITS on this one. Not to mention they also acquired Zellers, and drafted Hagens and LeTourneau. The prospect pool is looking unreal for Boston right now for the first time in- maybe, ever?

    This is a trade that in hindsight looks much worse than it did in the moment. A 1st round pick and a prospect they didn’t want for a top 4 RHD with salary retention for 2 additional years? Honestly that sounds like a pretty good deal for a deadline snag, and Carlo played well for the leafs down the stretch last year. Even now I don’t necessarily think it was the wrong choice as Berube would put Domi at center again before ever playing Minten, so with the direction the teams were heading in at the time this deal is logical. And basically nobody foresaw the Atlantic standings being what they are come February of this year

    this was a bad trade and I liked your deep dive into it, but the trade Vancouver made for OEL is by far the worst trade and it isn't even close
