Chayka adding to his list of trades lost.
Absolutely trash deal for the Leafs.
Marchenko is 3.85m for this season, so I guess he has a full season to “earn it” before he actually gets paid.
I dont mind the Knies for Marchenko 1 for 1, but I dont see why the leafs had to take 2 bad players/contracts and add a 2nd.
Andre was fine to move since they signed BlankenburgMarchenko adds speed the leafs very much need. I like Knies but I do think his perceived value on the ice and Power forward rep were a tad overblown for what he brings.
Chayka is a mover and a shaker, he does lots of stuff… hope all these moves work out
Exchanging Elvis who is on LTIR and Wood who is a Marlie for Lorentz who didn’t make the team and Andre who was probably #9 D is a wash. Marchenko is probably a second rounder more valuable to Leafs than Knies
