As a whole Leafs are a good team, but broken up the value is different. Can not see most if all these deals going thru.
Ottawa's two 1st round picks could be top 3 picks. That could be 2 Matthews for the price on 1. No thanks
New Jersey is not giving up on Hughes so quickly. Plus a 1st is a hard to swallow.
Until Nylander can prove he is a 60 to 80 point guy no one is giving you anything of real value.
Dallas is not giving up two high prospect and a 1st for Tavares. They are both cost controlled for years.
Av have probably the best young defenseman and he again is cost controlled for years.
Again with Buffalo and Vancouver they have good young players who are cost controlled. Also almost every team except Colorado and Dallas are rebuilding. You do not rebuild by trading good young cost controlled talent for, players, some very good to to great on big contracts, unless they are a piece away from.contendimg for a cup.
