Trade kinda stinks all around.
Engvall, Holl and Kerfoot don't really hold any value for VAN, and retaining 4.3 is a **** ton. However, Canucks probably still do it because the 1st and Liljgren has shown a real impact. I also think they'd like Holl for the same reasons the Leafs management and coaches like him. Fans would hate him just like TOR fans do though.
Other side, Leafs get more scoring talent, but their defense takes a hit losing two minute eaters. Their PK also suffers losing Holl, Lilj, and Kerfoot. Can't see them doing this, because it creates huge holes just to add some secondary scoring.
Scoring always gets fans excited, but without a reasonably deep defense, and good PKers, the scoring will amount to nothing.
