I'd rather Toronto protect 8 skaters instead and keep Dermott:
Matthews, Rielly
Tavares, Muzzin, Campbell
Marner, Brodie
Nylander, Dermott
Likely to lose Kerfoot to Seattle, maybe Holl. Both are replaceable. Liljegren can take Holl's spot. And Kerfoot is better as a winger anyways so if Seattle takes him it just frees up $3.5M in cap to find a cheaper 3C. Dermott is more of a valuable asset to keep than either Kerfoot or Holl. Especially if you're only moving him for a future bottom 6 guy that Toronto already has guys to fill that role (Mikheyev, Barabanov, Anderson, Korshkov, etc.)
Find a more valuable and useable player and maybe Dermott gets moved. But I don't see how this is good for them at all
