Define worth? Are Marner and Mathews better? yes. Are they 7.25 million better? Not really sure about that

Devils side has term, and is younger and cheaper. Not close. Honestly could probably take out hischier and I'd still take the devils side. you'll get more surplus value over Hughes at 8 aav for 7 years than you will from matthews/marner for 3 combined years at 11+ aav

This is the correct answer. While Matthews and Marner are better right now...in terms of value to a team, I would imagine most would prefer to build around guaranteed contracts for 4 and 7 more years of Hischier and Hughes at their current cap hits, than expiring contracts of Marner and Matthews, where there is a chance Matthews is paid as much as both Hughes and Hischier combined...So with that said, would you rather have Matthews OR Hughes AND Hischier combined...have to go with the NJ squad.

Attires and Marner are better, but Hughes and Hischier are more valuable. Hughes has probably the best contract in the NHL, and Hischier’s is great value as well

No it isn’t if you factor in contracts. Hischier and Hughes are locked in at sweetheart deals for nearly the next decade. Matthews and Marner are both going to cost 12+ mil each on their next deal in the next couple years. They are not 8 mil better

While Matthews and Marner are better right now

I don't think this is correct any longer.
There's a very good argument to be made that, at the very least, Hughes and Hischier have both developed past Marner and Hughes being neck and neck with Matthews at this point in time.
I would not be too surprised to see Hughes and Hischier both having a better 23-24 than Matthews either as both of them has still some room left to develop whereas Matthews likely is peaking in his career right now or is just past his peak.

As for the trade, the Devils have 0 reason to go anywhere near this even if the Leafs threw 3 1st rd picks and Knies on top when accounting for ages of respective player and cap implications.

No it’s not 😂. Leafs have shown how toploading with 4 players making half the cap has ruined a team. Cheap contracts are gold

Hughes alone is worth more imo. Hughes for the next 3 years will probably produce as much as matthews+marner will over the remaining life of their contracts, while costing 9.4 mill less. Then the next 4 years on top of that
