I agree, but given the deal he wants and what the ask on here is, not someone I’d want to trade for.

In 2 years (let alone 4-5) when the cap is up from what is is now it will be a bargain

You are correct sir. He's the first 40 goal scoring over point a game elite offensive player who according to 90% of people on this site is only a 60 point winger.

Willy would be a huge add for any team but please don’t trade him to Boston, can us Leaf fans not curse ourselves?

Your going to love the 1 just did after seeing this thread lol. This is a trade that would work for TML but BOS would never do it. Usually would not do divison rival trade but don't think BOS is really as big a threat this year even with these adds. They need center if anything not Nylander.

Without Bergeron and Krejci BOS will struggle, adding Nylander won't help that. That is why BOS would never accept this trade or the 1 I proposed lol.

I’ve been a leaf fan long enough to know that if we dealt Nylander to Boston he would suddenly become a #1 Centre and defensive juggernaut

I personally do not agree. I’d rather spend the money on the Rangers defense core than another extremely overpaid winger.

Not farfetched at all considering Nylander has some experience at C and the elite stick check in his tool belt already. I think in his role as a scoring winger he's typically just waiting for that break out pass. Guessing when he does need to play defense I'm guessing he's either uninterested or unexpecting so he ends up lost or reacting too late. If he's playing C, I could see him adapt to a 200ft game if he's always playing that way.

He would definitely be a Leafs killer regardless though especially id he can rekindle his old chemistry with Pastrnak.

I like all four players in the trade suggested.....and on ice value for 23/24, think it favours the Bruins.
But four years of Carlo...gee I like the trade as a Leaf fan.
