Prolly get to see Seth Griffith now for the Leafs. And likely a solid boost to Connor Brown.

Nevermind, the Leafs picked up Craig Smith (played with the Marlies and Leafs last yr). So the Michalek waive is a corresponding move

[Mr. Guru]

Toronto also claimed Ben Smith from Colorado

*** Ben Smith ***
Picked him up for the 4th line and PK Duties.

Queue Josh Leivo debut.... or waivers.

I remember when those first two were highly touted sharks prospects. As a Sharksfan I tought Bernier was the next Shanahan, Michalek a light version of Hossa. Talk about bias

Doesn’t help that he (Michalek) went in front of some ridiculous players in that 2003 draft.
Ryan Suter (7), Carter (11), Seabrook (14), Parise (17), Getzlaf (19), Burns (20), Kesler (23), Richards (24), Perry (28), Eriksson (33), Bergeron (45), Weber (49), Crawford (52), Backes (62), Howard (64).

That was a good draft!

Imagine if your team was rebuilding and you just drafted every rookie on that draft? I think you would have been ok.

Center: Getzlaf, Carter, Kesler, Bergeron
LW: Parise, Eriksson, Richards
RW: Perry, Backes
D: Suter, Seabrook, Burns, Weber
G: Crawford, Howard

Well add Fleury (1^st), Eric Staal (2), Horton (3), Vanek (5), Buff was in the 240s I think, Enstrom was around there, Pavelski (205), Halak (271), Brian Elliot (291).

Hedja, Quincey, Stempniak, Brodziak, Moulson, and David Jones all came from that draft too.ahhhh

Belive me I know . Dont get me started on Setoguchi, at least Burs found his way into the Sharks roster.

you mean ben smith

[The Guvnah]

I really liked Ben Smith when he played for the Hawks. Always thought he was a solid bottom six contributor when given the chance.

you mean ben smith

Yes sorry, my mistake

Komarov-Kadri-Brown
Martin-Smith-Holland

That’s the new 3^rd/4^th line for the Leafs, and it makes sense now having the waiver claim for Smith. He was a solid bottom center for them last yr and they like having Holland on the wing (he was there a lot of pre-season)
