Only reason the Leafs would trade Matthews (or Marner) is player good value or cap relief. Burns isn't good value now at 8m and certainly won't be in the future. Lebanc had a good season two years, but not last year. Leafs right now have three superior RWers than Lebanc.
Folks think (and maybe with reason) the Leafs have overspent 40.5m invested in their top 4 forwards. But it' pathetic that the Sharks 26.5m in three aging Dmen, EK, Burns and Vlasic plus 9m in Couture....all with NTC or NMC.. That't's not going to age well.
