Trading Dermott before you know the health status of Rielly is risky. Think of how limited Gardner and Dermott were in the playoffs last year and the Leafs had no better options. I don't think you get Demelo for that **** soup of players you threw at Ottawa, they have little reason to want that return for him.
Jersey trade is not great, they probably get more of a return on those guys (if they want to trade them) by splitting them up. Severson is kind of like Dumba, not great in the defensive end and thus may not be a great fit for the Leafs. Frankly, if that's the trade they make, they're probably better, but trading Dermott right now is risky.
