Watch as Toronto Maple Leafs' duo Rasmus Sandin and Pierre Engvall say their goodbyes to their teammates after a recent set of trades sending Sandin to the Washington Capitals and Engvall to the New York Islanders.

Kyle Dubas was busy on Tuesday. The Leafs GM made three trades which broke in quick succession.

First, he traded defenceman Rasmus Sandin to Washington in exchange for defenceman Erik Gustafsson and a first-round pick.

Following this, he traded forward Pierre Engvall to the Islanders for a third-round pick and acquired defenceman Luke Schenn from the Canucks.

Schenn, 33, played four seasons for Toronto after they drafted him in 2008.

Here's what Hockey Twitter had to say.
