Description

Trading Matthews is never happening.... but what if??? I think this lineup is a more balanced team lines 1 through 4... a more stable blue line.... the trade with Arizona is a bit high end.. but close to what the leafs could get... maybe one to many players of high end quality... but it could be made to work...
but as I said.. it’s just a look see

You would have to get a lot more in return for Mathews than that

No matter the return the Leafs would not be better without Matthews, let’s talk Marner however!
