Ngl thats a little bit of an overpay by Toronto

This doesn’t solve Carolina’s goalie consistency issue - they already have a Samsonov named Pyotr.

making the defense and goaltending much worse in one fell swoop is something

Canucks don't want that Plug. We are not giving a pick up for that.

Easy pass for the Canucks.
If you trade Myers for Jarnkrok it would work in my opinion.

I feel like the trade is interesting but imo id rather keep kuzmeister

Vancouver can use the Leafs 1st to dump Myers in a separate trade, allowing them to deal their own 1st to add a difference maker at the deadline.

There's no other way to get rid of Myers. Not even rebuilding teams are going to take him on without a high draft pick going their way.

Myers to toronto will never happen hes terrible but imo these trades dont work anyways

Kuzmenko is a one hit wonder ; $5.5M for 13 goals (current pace, nowhere near last year) is not equal value to $2.1M for 20 goals (current pace same as last year) . Oh and one guy plays defense & pk

In sheltered minutes, on a 3rd line, against bottom pair defencemen, with a playmaker like Domi, there could be a rebound to his game. He's a natural goal scorer. And Leafs need more scoring from the bottom six in the playoffs. Last year they scored no more than 2 goals per game in the Florida series.

$5.5M is a lot of $ to pay for 3rd line sheltered role

It's a luxury the Leafs can afford. It will create three dynamic duos with Matthews-Nylander, Tavares-Marner, and Domi-Kuzmenko.

It would be that but I think our priority - which means $ allocation in today’s nhl, thanks Bettman 🙄 - is the d corps.
