That was quick on their part.

Payed into the whole original few key players left from the expansion draft and went ahead and shipped him out a few days later.

Edit : Wow only a third...

Old wingers are probably the least valuable trade asset in the NHL.

But yeah probably helps show how soft the trade market was for Toffoli.

I like Reilly as a player in a supporting role.
Seems like a pretty astute move for the Pens.

That’s a very nice trade for the Pens.

And he has 2 years left, coming of 26 goal season, we did very well on 1 year of Toffoli.

Cup winners need to move out money.
Vegas needs cap room for Hill and they probably try to keep Barbashev.

This is making me re-evaluate the Toffoli trade.

Smith has averaged 52 points ever 82 games over the past three seasons.

Toffoli has averaged 65 points every 82 games the past three seasons.

Smith makes 500K a year more than Toffoli.

So not surprising that the Flames got more, Toffoli is a much better player on a cheaper contract.

The market certainly showing itself to be rather weak for wingers aged 30+.
