I played with junior with Micheal Leighton 20+ years ago. I think he was 15. The team cut him when an OHL goalie got sent down from Sarnia.

I'm pretty sure he's the only player from that team who is still playing.

Leighton's chances of getting back to the Stanley Cup Final significantly improved.

That's a lot of pieces for a minor trade.
