Interesting: Jay Feaster just offer-sheeted the conditional 4th-round pick the Leafs got in the Mike Brown trade.

lol

mirtle: Apparently the pick for Brown is also conditional.

Any word on what the condition is? Goes up to a third or down to a fifth based on games played?

That or if they re-sign him would be my guesses.

Dominoes?

Hey, hey, hey. You're expecting him to wait to report the story in it's entirety? What is this, 1897?

Conditional and is a 2014 pick...

I'd like to hear from lc9 on this deal.

Will miss the moustache!

+ his work ethic. Every time he played, he played with a high level of intensity. A Real Team Guy. You will be missed.

TSNBobMcKenzie: BTW, TOR now cheering for EDM to make playoffs this year. If so, 4th rder in 2014 for Mike Brown becomes 3rd rder in 2014.

Enh.

 

[Derk]

A little surprised at this, but after thinking about it, I'm not sure why I was surprised. My last memory of him from the boards was from recent game day threads "I wish Brown wouldn't take so many unnecessary penalties".

Didn't stop people discussing it here without knowing all of the details.  What a strange anger towards Twitter.

Go Oil!

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Somebody had to go to make room for Frattin (and somebody else will have to go later to make room for Lupul). Brown has slid way down on our forward depth chart. It was this or waivers.

 

[Redleaf]

Go Oil!

Yes. Make the playoffs this year, and finish dead last next. (If I'm understanding this condition on the pick correctly?)

Ditto that exactly.

Yep I might his speed on the 4th line, but I definitely will not miss the dumb penalties.

 

[Deebo]

Strange condition for the trade, since I don't hink Mike Brown will be the difference between the Oilers making or missing the playoffs.

True, but a great one for the Leafs if they do.  A 3rd rounder for Brown is more return than I would ever expect for a guy like him.

It's a strange anger towards lousy journalism, regardless of medium.

 

[Leafaholic99]

Good trade for both teams, this gets the Leafs something for a player we have a few of and needed to trade one of them, the Oilers get a player that can be a presence and help the young guys feel a bit more comfortable to play their game.

Hoping the Oil make the playoffs so we get a third!

 

[Corn Flake]

When Lupul gets back I imagine Steckel is next.
