funny thing is that i said that back then as well.
this trade makes no sense to me and i don't get the apologists.
2 of these players will be UFAs, and if we really wanted white and hagman we could have gotten them for less than phaneuf. and we could have gotten the other 2 for free in the offseason.
no schenn, even no kessel, and even more no draft picks.
i wouldn't be surprised to see the leafs move phaneuf for the trade that we should have gotten.
you know...i was holding out for a 3way getting getzlaf at best and perry at worst.
instead we got 4 leaf roster players of which 2 will be available to all for free in a couple of months.
we either downgraded or salary dumped. is this what we do with core players?
