Minny would not have the problem but Toronto would. . The pick could be Carolinas due to the structure of the Marleau trade. Because the 1st round pick, in 2020 is top 10 protected, if Toronto somehow does not make the playoffs and they are in the top ten, the 2021 pick automatically becomes the pick of Carolina. Minny has no issues other than they would not get the pick and then there are issues. So Toronto can not trade their pick for 2021 until the end of the regular season and they get into the playoffs.
