Detroit doesn't trade their first for that and Toronto definitely doesn't trade Marner for that, certainly not while retaining salary.

The Detroit trade is stupid (They are not trading away a pick that may get them Laferniere especially for that package)
The Toronto trade is stupid (Nowhere near enough for Marner)
And you're going to have to send a late pick or a minor prospect with Smith as compensation for taking his salary.

Oh and to top it all off, this team is definitely not a cup contender..............not yet at least.

I get Lafreniere is a great talent, but I’m not understanding why he needs to fetch more. He hasn’t played a single game & we don’t know if he’ll be a blue chip yet, so his value shouldn’t be too high. In this trade, Detroit is getting 2 high end wingers & a top 4 defenseman. That’s a already significant package. As for Marner, yeah he could probably fetch more, but the Leafs are desperate for cap relief plus they need a top 4 RHD. Nylander is a promising young player too.
