Doubt the Leafs have much interest in paying a 1st for Niederreiter. He's sort of that borderline top 6 forward. He's not really a big goal scorer. He's not much better than what the Leafs have access to already. In the realm of a 1st for a winger with term, someone like Adam Henrique would probably be much more attractive and likely available for a 1st. He scores more, he's more versatile, can penalty kill, can play center, etc.
Basically my point is that there are much better options out there in the world of wingers if the Leafs are willing to move a 1st round pick.
