need to put a better offer if you want JP. Thats not gunna cut it

So you traded
Nylander, Kadri and Holland
For
Spurgeon, Wennberg and Greenway

Nylander has 5 years remaining and is arguably over paid by a million a year. Personally I think his contract will look ok in a year.

I gather you think Spurgeon as a RHD is worth nylander straight up. Maybe he would be if he was signed to term at around 5 million like Pesce is but has 1 year before free agency.

Kadri for wenneberg to save 600,000 is a bad trade

No you don’t, if leafs want JP they only need to offer sheet him 3 years at 2.5 million. No way Edmonton matches and I believe JP would love to get out of Edmonton. It costs the leafs a draft pick and money that the have.

Stash him with marlies and see if you can make something of him.

As poorly as he has performed, you cant trade nothing for JP. A 2nd would have to be included atleast

I don’t think oil would take a 2nd.

I think the leafs should offer sheet him at 2.5 x 3 and give up the 2nd they would have to.

IMO the oil would not match it they would take the pick. Toronto has the budget to allow an overpay to JP and send him to marlies where he would not count against the cap.

The original offer of brown + Sparkes + 4 th is IMO an overpay by leafs.
