TDL options

Age and type of _FA status should be more key here

Kubalik > Klingberg for those reasons etc.

Why does Hertl get Amirov but Filip not

kubalik would be cause he's a rfa, but there's going to be a war for klingberg, less so for kubs.
same logic for hertl getting amirov.

Both CHI deals are really non starters. The values are well short of what would be needed to convince us to move any of the pieces mentioned.

Like the idea of getting Dylan Strome and Alex Nylander on the Leafs.

Forsberg and Fabbri also are good options.

This might be bad take but I'm going to argue that the Leafs shouldn't make any trades at the deadline this year. Trading for a rental every year eventually depletes draft pick and prospect pool. With so many first round exits in the playoffs, the rental players aren't the missing piece in my opinion. I think Dubas needs to address the team and basically lay it out and say, this is the team. Now show up.
While I know the team is in win now mode, Dubas is also tasked with figuring out how to adjust the teams long term plans with the variable of a flat cap for 2 years. When he signed the big 4 contracts, it was with the mindset that those cap hits wouldn't look so bad around this year and forward.
