Willy Trade for Cap Relief

ottawa declines

I'm probably the biggest Nylander fan on here and even I think that isn't a wise move for Ottawa. Not saying Brady is better but he fits in with the Ottawa trajectory more so than Willy.

If you ignore the fact that the Sens will not move Tkachuk, especially not to the Leafs. The cap savings will only last a year when you have to sign Tkachuk next off season, add to that next year will have the Leafs needing to re sign Hyman and a goalie whether it be Andersen or someone else, plus Lehtonen should he be able to translate his game in the KHL to the NHL. Leafs cap issues are just beginning

While I do feel like the Leafs will at some point need to move one of their big 4. I think it will be a depth package coming back not a one for one type deal.

sens likely decline. Brady is younger and cheaper (which is matters to the sens) but also fills a bigger role in the org. Hes a great 1st line PF. we just drafted our elite speed skill player in the draft.

Outside of Toronto, a lot of teams take age and cap hit into account in determining players' trade value.
