W HTH PREDICTION 📈
Wow, good for you guys. That's a tidy bit of work by Treliving.
The kid who gets drafted is 5 years away from the league for Marner
Avalanche front office are idiots, roy sucks i hate the player such a garbage move.
they need to stop the NMC. or super modified. the trade deadline is always a dud.
What the hell are you talking about. Bottom 1st rd is basically a 2nd rd pick
You lost me when you said leafs may flip 1 st pick. Haven’t we learned from past mistakes. Foolish
you never ever ever give Brad TreDying any props. He is the worst GM in all of pro sports and has the most kickable face i've ever seen.
W, excited for tmr stream
Good start, did not expect a first round pick for Roy.
ROY is a good player, unfortunately he went 2 a true contender. As for return, it's a start, u can't stop at one trade. SELL. SELL..SELL
You Leaf homers kill me 😅 A steal ?? Top-10 protected, no way Colorado sinks in the bottom rung of the NHL next season to make this pick no worse than a 22-25 pick.
Nobody said that it was a buyers market
TAKING THAT PICK AND 🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃
Marner gave u this pick…
It's a 32 ND pick lol basically a shot in the dark 2nd rounder
Unless they magically get dethroned it's still a late 1st
From Chris Johnston on x
The Wild acquire Jeff Petry from Florida for a 2026 7th-round pick
San Jose Sharks on x
The Sharks have acquired defenseman Jett Woo from Vancouver in exchange for defenseman Jack Thompson.
Unless they're getting a pick in the top 10 or even top five I would say first rounders are simply magic beans and the Leafs have a poor history of drafting
LOL the Leafs don't know how to draft!!! So whats the big deal? They will take the absolute WORST player possible with that or any other pick..
Lol bro that's a 28-30 pick. Ur acting like it's worth more than Roy
The Leafs got value for Nic Roy. It was not an overpayment but the amount of assets that Roy is actually really worth. Congratulations to the Avs on your playoffs because Nic Roy instantly makes your team deeper.

This is a horrible trade for us as an Avalanche fan

So the last pick in the first round, woohoo 😂
As a leafs fan can we not trade away our first round pick
Probably the last pick in the first, so it is kinda like a early second, so big deal.
