I hate Toronto, but I would not do that deal if I were them, crap deal for them! But I would love it for Oilers.....

Toronto will want more for the 3 guys they are moving. Yes they are in salary cap he’ll but they are in win now mode and you only offer 1 guy in Benning who would make next years roster.

Eathan bear is a similar prospect to what they have in sandin and lillegren already.

Don’t want picks and prospects.

Deal built around Larsson, Kadri, Brown and maybe Kapanen would work but if Kapanen included it would need to be a first plus a 3rd

I agree that Toronto would want more, however Toronto doesn’t have cap space to sign Kapanen, so I figured Oilers could either offer sheet him which would only cost them a second, or trade for him. (Valued as 2nd plus Bear)
Kadri is not in the good books with his team, so I thought he would come a bit cheaper. (Valued as Benning, Khaira, Puljujarvi)
Brown could probably be had for the 3rd round pick

I think this works well for both teams, helps Toronto get out of cap hell with cheaper younger players. Oilers get some decent forwards to balance out the lineup.
Oilers take on $11 million in contract, while sending about $4million to Toronto. So that’s $7 million in savings for them to put towards signing Marner!

I could see possibly adding a mid to late round pick, or Gambardella to Toronto

I don’t see Larsson getting traded. Oilers can’t afford to overpay in free agency for a top 4 right shot defenceman

Leafs are in H*ll but still will match any offer sheet for Johnsson or Kapanen and then trade the player. You can go over the cap by 10% in summer so even if all 3 got offer sheeted at say 4.5 + 4.5 + 11. That’s still only 20 total. They could match and then trade or take the 1 st and 3rd for one of the lesser guys. Don’t forget in order to have an offer sheet you have to have 2 things. A team willing enough to overpay plus give up picks, plus the player has to agree to sign.

IMO, Marner will never agree to sign an offer sheet and leave Toronto. The other 2 I am not sure they would leave for less term then 4 or 5 years and not less then 4AAV. No offence to all the rest of you but Edmonton isn’t as desirable as Toronto.
