This is a horrible trade Shiv, you never trade for shitty players producing on bad teams, all it takes is a single trade for them to lose their value. This is where real life scouting comes into play. Mike Kostka is going to lose alot of his value once Gardiner and Gunnarsson return from injury, and it won't be long until Bozak is demoted to a lower line, the Leafs cannot compete with him on the top line, that should be evident to everyone by now. It wouldn't surprise me if Kadri usurps him in the coming weeks.

Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if Kostka wasn't even in the NHL by season's end.

and Bozak isn't even a shitty player producing on a bad team - he's a shitty player NOT producing on a bad team.

I killed this deal. I knew this would be the league reaction. But I know what I'm doing with my team more than anyone else. I wouldn't make a deal like this unless it made sense 200%. Flame on BBKL.

Kostka will not be on the team when injuries are healed. He gets worse every game. Bottom pairing dman at best with inflated stats from playing with Phaneuf.

Bozak got demoted tonight (in a winning effort, no less) and as Kadri develops he will continue to get demoted. He's a #3C playing in the #1C slot with 2 goal scorers on a terrible team. He's a UFA that shouldn't be re-signed but probably will because the Leafs are morons and want to continue to finish in the lottery.

Ruutu is decent but has one incredibly inflated hits season that most remember, gets hurt every year.

That Anaheim 1st may end up being the best piece you receive in this deal.

Terrible analysis without knowing my team's position. But please continue to teach me how to run my team.
