Maybe, want to talk about why?
I think Zacha has alot of prestige to his name due to where he was drafted but hasnt quite lived up to it. I think he's a great 3rd line center for the leafs and NJD gets a good 3rd line center back, a young D and a 1st. Wellwood also fills a hole in the marlies

I think Zacha would shine on a better team, is still young and has potential to grow his game. He's a big body but skilled too. Kerfoot, Like Johnsson, isnt a cap dump but any team taking on salary wouldnt pay full price in a trade so the cap saving of apx 1 million is also an assest going to the leafs that they have to pay for.
Kerfoot is what he is but Zacha is at least on par, bigger, younger and has potential.

Then why are Tor putting him on every trade offer? He's the new Bracco!

Kerfoot isnt exciting and Leaf/hockey fans love excitement. Kerfoot fills a role and does it well but Leafs need someone cheaper.
Finding a good but cheaper 3rd line center is tough when you think about team's need and capabilities and Leaf's assets arent are desirable as some may think

because for some weird reason people think Zacha is good defensively. It's a weird urban legend started by like 2 or 3 devils fans on this board. So Leaf fans think that there is this guy who is a great defensive forward who is cheap that they can sub in, but they're wrong. He's one of the worst defensive forwards in the league at even strength

On the PK is one of the best in the league, 5v5 he is less good. We are keeping PZ to replace Zajac when he is done this year. Looks like he found chemistry late in the season so maybe he's there now. Kerfoot did not want to be here to begin with, he can go elsewhere.

the PK is less than 1/6th of the time he's on the ice on average per game. And he's not just less good, he's abysmal at 5v5. So if a guy is awful for such a significant portion of the time he's on the ice and is only usefull in a small speciality role, he's not a 3C. It doesnt really matter if Kerfoot wanted to be in NJ or not because the leafs would have zero interest in moving him for such a downgrade.

Then there's nothing to discuss, and I'm ok with that!
And for the record, you guys keep doing trades for him, no Devs fans are looking to push him out.
