Hayes isnt really a 2nd line center anymore and is aging. Leafs can find something SIMILAR most years on the UFA market without giving up assets. Robertson is cost controlled and has been productive in stints. He has a chance at out pacing Hayes in the points department as soon as next year. This trade is simply bad asset management from the leafs end.
Liljegren AAV at 2mill is bang on. Hes done nothing to prove he is any more then a 5,6,7 defenseman yo this point. There is a high possibility he isnt in the top 6 to start the playoffs. All other contracts are close aswell. Robertson might be overpayed. Id say hes closer to League minimum then 1.5mill
