Really? I see a lot of people questioning the trade, but crying? Getting fleeced?

If he read the initial reaction, he would be right. If he stuck around for the rest of the day, he would know better.
There are six stages to the grief a fan experiences when a big trade like this happens:
anger
denial
depression
bargaining
acceptance
optimism
There are fans here, and everywhere else, at varying stages of all six. Dreger is simply cherry picking the most sensationalistic and negative part in a bid to pump up Leafs fans.
