leafs fans what would be your thoughts on this

and for the record im not a leafs fan, just curious to see what people think about this.

Makes no sense for either team

To clarify: toronto would want to add him to their team, not at the expense of a core player and San Jose would not want an older player who also needs a new contract, they'd be rebuilding

Maybe this trade could have been done a few years ago but I don't see Dubas moving Nylander with the season he's having. The aim is to make the roster deeper by adding at the deadline, not doing lateral trades.

The extra year of Nylander’s contract is pretty valuable, and it wouldn’t make sense to mess with the core roster construction in this way (this year).

San Jose would have to add. Nylander has an extra year under his contract at good value and has been the better player this year so far
