Polak and Spaling traded to San Jose

And in the same game, Mathias scores for the AVs.  Polak is sure to have a huge night.

Should help PAP's trade value. I mean just look at how much better everyone gets after they get traded from Toronto!

I'm sure PAP will be tested when he's moved to his new team. We await the results.

I can't wait for the next trades

Speaking of trades. Does anyone think there's any merit to having Babcock as a coach in terms of trade value? Meaning, if another team is trading for one of the Leaf's vets, are they more confident making that move given that the player has likely been coached very well? I realize teams play their own systems, but is there a greater perceived value in a player that has been coached by a guy like Babcock?

I was thinking the same thing myself, Babs has helped several of these guys find their mojo again so it makes sense that a Babs coached player may well be more desirable. I really can't seem to remember Detroit trading off their players this way. What would a younger Zetterburg fetch?
