Its too much. PLD is overrated on this site (and Nylander underrated).

1 for 1 might almost make sense. They score at the same pace but I think PLD add's more with his size and physicality..

That is a myth with no basis in reality.
At best PLD for WN 1 for is a lateral move. At worst it is a massive downgrade. There isn't a trade that makes sense for Toronto without CBJ adding - which will never happen.

Ya. PLD is better at playing hockey and has waaaaay more potential.

Why would it be a downgrade? Nylander is a one dimensional player (and I am a huge Nylander fan, but he is one dimensional)

Seems to be split on this site... I think PLD is more valuable, and I am a leafs and nylander fan...

Well he isn't for one. That take is based on the hockey mens bad takes on him, but PLD being a twf is a myth. He isn't actually good defensively. EqlPkTTXYAYumGF?format=jpg&name=small

Are you talking about PLD being a downgrade for leafs, or Nylander being a downgrade for CBJ?

He’s talking about charts, not hockey. Ignore him.

PLD is better than Nylander. Significantly. More importantly, he has a really good chance of being elite. Nylander doesn’t.
