Doesn't that seem like an overpayment?

Excellent trade for Toronto. Fehr is underrated IMO, and the 4th isn't bad for a player doing nothing either.

Anyone else hope that Corrado becomes the next Schultz for the Pens?

The deal was really just Fehr/4th to Toronto, the 4th being a premium for relieving Pittsburgh of Fehr's salary this and next season.

Corrado showed glimpses of an NHL game when the Leafs picked him up off waivers last season - but just couldn't get anything going this season. I'm glad Lou found a home for him, given that anyone could have plucked him off waivers months ago for nothing - but nobody took the chance.

Most Leafs fans are rooting for the kid, as he still has some developing to do - and the situation in Toronto started to set him back IMO.

Olesky was thrown in to replace Corrado's minutes for the Marlies.
