There has to be a deal possible with either Ducks or Sharks. Some say Sharks won't add. Why not? They are just a couple points out with games in hand.

Anaheim bleeds in goals against. They could use an experienced RD that is steady defensively and a vet defensive forward would not hurt.

Leafs get extra value for taking on Strome at full cap hit.

After what we just got for Roy from the Avs I don’t think we need to take anything to get back value. It just goes to show how ppl here are undervaluing Leaf players. I like the package but don’t have to take back Strong to get it.

Good deal for both parties.
Taking back Strome is just part of doing business.

Business we don't need. Look at these trades happening Carlson straight up for a two picks.

Unfortunately picking up Carlson means this has no chance - like it ever did anyway. lol
Carlson got what he did because he still plays 22 mins a night and puts up almost a point per game. Can't really compare him to Carlo.

Most people always talk about Karlson's offensive talent. Other thing that John Karlson brings to the table that a lot of people don't realize is that once he blocks 4 more shots, he will be all-time career NHL leader in blocked shots.

Great shooter, great passer and skater and one durable dude to play as long as he has at the level and still is blocking shots 13 in his last 5 games. Great pickup by Anaheim.
