Wiiiiiith a long term extension perhaps this works. I think the second is too much though.

way too much

Well, by giving up Dubois, CBJ is losing out on 60 pts and they have to make that up somehow; KK alone might not plug that points gap in his first season. However, KK alongside Toffoli is 80 pts for CBJ. Moreover, habs have to move salary in order to have any hope of resigning Dubois and Suzuki. Better yet, moving Toffoli creates room for Caulfied. Good move all around.
