Leafs get Phaneuf and JS Giguere!!



-- Latest update --

"In the first trade, with the Calgary Flames, Toronto netted stud defenceman Dion Phaneuf. The Leafs also landed forward Fredrik Sjostrom and prospect defenceman Keith Aulie from Calgary in exchange for forwards Matt Stajan, Niklas Hagman, Jamal Mayers and defenceman Ian White.

The second trade took longer to complete, but the Leafs sent Vesa Toskala and Jason Blake to Anaheim for Jean-Sebastien Giguere."

Finally a move by Leaf's GM Brian Burke that makes sense!!

I have to say that this is the first good Leafs-related news that I've heard in years..

Here are the details:

"The Leafs ended up with Flames defenceman Dion Phaneuf for Matt Stajan and Ian White. The Leafs also get a prospect from Abbottsford, said ESPN.com.  Vesa Toskala, a free agent in the summer, was sent to the Ducks for goalie JS Giguere and a draft pick."
