Yeah he needs to get his old mans lid from him and rock it in the playoffs.
Im not entirely sure how the Leafs run their lines but Im guessing Foligno lines up with one of Matthews or Tavares as a winger. He is really the type of guy you want going into the post season where the game just gets that much tougher.
Like this deal for all involved. Leafs in full "go for it" mode get a piece they can use anywhere in the line up. CBJ get assets for an expiring contract and likely re-sign him in the summer. SJ gets a broker fee.
Wins for eveyone.
