Would something like Larsson/Benning/2nd Rd Pick (or 3rd) for Nylander/Brown/3rd Rd pick work? Edm gets the forwards they need and Toronto get cap friendly defensemen that they need AND save cap?

I don't think that's going to do it. That Edmonton pick would have to be a lottery protected 1st and no pick coming back from Toronto. That'd at least be closer.

both teams getting close to cap.so difficult to get the match necessary. Larsson and kassian but even that doesn't help the leafs cap without other moves.
