I don't think this move is as "LOL Leafs" as people make it out to be. He's not an AHLer, he's a prospect. The guy wasn't gonna make the Habs with their depth, but he'll be given a spot in Toronto.
It's kinda risky for Toronto because he seems like a boom or bust player. But there's plenty of talent there for him to make an impact. I'm not gonna say I like the trade...not the type of player I'm hoping for right now, but this isn't a
JEFF FINGER move.
Montreal got decent return on the trade.
