oldnews Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Totally agree. also Toronto to be honest like Vancouver is too good of a team to have to make a deal like this. Even if it was a 7th round pick for him I wouldn't do it. Such trade might have been a benefit for a a team chasing down the 8th spot, vs a team like Vancouver or Toronto are more then good enough to add another number 6 dman. Colorado is probably getting a good laugh out of this trade. If they really needed a dman they could have just call up Komasarek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Burrows 14 Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 To everyone saying gillis sucks, just because he only made one trade (a good one imo) does not mean he sucks and we should fire him. We are a good team and sometimes it is better not to make moves on the deadline because if you become desperate you will overpay and make stupid trades. I think we are in a good position. As for obyrne i think he is a great pickup and maybe he wanted to go to toronto??? Because he is close friends with liles. So maybe he requested a trade to toronto. And he is not a game changer and now that we did not get him does not mean we are not going to win it all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jai604 Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 lol, the responses in this thread..... Apparently every trade that is made in the NHL is a trade Gillis could have and should have made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamJamIam Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Gillis gets us another 1st line centre so we have that position stacked more than any other team when Kes comes back, and these idiots are on about an overpayment for a 7th or 8th D?

Mollyworld Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Don't know alot about O'byrne, but in his first game as a Leaf: 23 R. O'BYRNE D 1 0 1 2 0 2 3 3 0 0 - 15:47 That is 1 goal, +2 , 3 hits and 3 blocked shots, and playing time is obvious. For a depth dman a 4th rounder is not a bad price to pay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NightHawkSniper Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 I've had it with Gillis. He is a waste of space. For the 3rd year running we watch our rivals tool up while we manage a rental for a prospect and a 2nd. The man is a ninny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UFCanuck Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Ryan O'Byrnes his own team. Good trade Nonuts, the whole Toronto media are a bunch of crack heads. Being a leaf fan is worse than being addicted to meth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
