TRADE ALERT

The Toronto Maple Leafs acquired defenseman Jake McCabe, forward Sam Lafferty, and two conditional draft picks from the Chicago Blackhawks on Monday.

The Maple Leafs send forward Joey Anderson, forward Pavel Gogolev, a conditional 2025 first-round pick, and a 2026 second-round pick to Chicago in the transaction.

Chicago is retaining 50% of McCabe's salary in the trade.

More to come.

Yep, why not. Bruins and Lightning are all-in and this is probably the best version of these Leafs yet. 50% retention on McCabe for two more years is also excellent.

Wow, you really don’t like the Leafs

Yeah, pretty funny how like the five best teams in the league are in the east and half of them won't be able to win a round. Meanwhile the west is trading for Jack Johnson.

Blaaaaaah

You don't think so? Hextal doesn't like rentals and this guy's 7 year extension hasn't even kicked in yet! I sure as hell hope not but he definitely fits the profile of players Hextal likes, overpaid older players with term

That’s it?

He's 34 and a UFA who is going to command big bucks on the open market after the season. I certainly wouldn't give up anymore than that but I am not GM.
