Leafsnation reacts to NHL trade deadline

It’s official! Another NHL trade deadline is in the books!
We already know what went down in Leafs Land but just in case you missed it, our live tracker will fill you in on anything and everything you need to know:
Now, one of my favourite parts of NHL trade deadline day are reading all the impulse fan reactions on Twitter because who doesn’t love a little entertainment sprinkled in on a very important day?

Kyle Dubas trying to get goalies through waivers
Did we expect more from Kyle Dubas and company?
The Leafs definitely made some solid moves heading into the deadline, but it's hard not to be disappointed in the lack of a significant trade today
Now, I’m not sure if this is true or not but nothing tastes better than a bagel with cream cheese so you have to give Dubas some credit on this acquisition. My only question is, was the bagel toasted?

All jokes aside, what are your thoughts Leafsnation? Are you happy with the way the trade deadline went for Toronto? Or were you expecting more? As always, post your thoughts, concerns and opinions down below in the comments section!
Gonna throw it out there that this trade deadline is vital for Kyle Dubas for obvious reasons but also Brendan Shanahan has been the president for eight years now.
