The first domino appears to have fallen prior to the NHL trade deadline as the Toronto Maple Leafs have shipped defenceman Francois Beauchemin back to the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for forward Joffrey Lupul, defenceman Jake Gardiner and a conditional fourth-round draft pick in the 2013 Entry Draft.

Thoughts ???

Good riddance. I'm sure he's a nice guy, but he didn't handle the puck very well nor did he ever defend well, and nothing about his game ever stood out except for maybe his willingness to drop the gloves occasionally. He was disappointing like Komisarek is, but nobody wants Komisarek due to his fat-cat contract unless Burkie can pull off another deal. The Leafs don't want Kaberle, but at least he's a good puck handler, good playmaker, and can QB the Powerplay. I hope we keep him, but it's not likely it seems.

We may as well just swap teams. Has Burke ever dealt with any other teams other than Anaheim? If he likes the players there so much, why the hell did he leave??

Still no danger of Burke getting Leafs into the playoffs
