I'd rather keep him, but the picks are probably enough

Big overpay by the leafs. Olaf isnt good at what the leafs need at all
Quoting: Fjordy
Deal
Quoting: Jfstompers
I mean he's a pretty good steady guy but what are you really trying to accomplish here?

The issue has been offence this season. Especially in the playoffs, the issue has been scoring at crucial times when our stars aren’t. This is a true contender move

(I mean if you read the second part of what I wrote I basically said the same thing and that the value is still good if you take out one of the two best assets in the deal)
If John Tavares could make Matt Moulson score 30 goals in each of 3 seasons, I would imagine he could make Olofsson get close to 40.
Regardless, Hirvonen would be decent prospect, but I think Karmanos would prefer the pick.
Make it the first, third and Engvall to balance the rosters reduce the cap hit to Toronto IMO would be fair.
Put Engvall on the fourth line and he would be the Sabre hit leader.
Buffalo adds a couple of picks and the Leafs get a scoring winger.
If Crowe can continue his magic, in three years, both the Sabres and Leafs will be very happy with this deal.
