By CFL standards, recent developments are huge as far as mid season trades go. However, I seem to remember another blockbuster between Wpg and T.O from 1980 or so. 

All I can recall is that we got Nick Bastaja and maybe another O-lineman, but I can't find record of who we gave up....just a vague recollection that we made out like bandits and that there may have been a QB involved.

Do any of you grey-beards remember this? 

 

Fullback Mark Bragagnolo, Nick Bastaja and a 3rd round pick to Winnipeg for LB Duncan MacKinlay, DT Leon Lyszkiewicz and OT John Malinosky.

Rod Black for a fourth round pick

Bastaja was a beast, very intimidating but nice as heck.

That was a great trade for us... Bastaja was a mainstay at guard for us for years. Braggagnolo was a very good fullback.
