The Jackets have three players in the entire organization I'd consider truly "untouchable", and you've got two of them here (the third is Jenner at this point). That's a quick no.
I wouldn't be opposed to trading for Nylander, but it almost certainly involves both our 2024 1st (for value) and Laine (for the roster spot/role/cap). CBJ might end conversations there because of the pick, and Toronto might end conversations because of Laine. If that's not the framework, though, I don't think there's anything else to discuss.
Toronto is stuck with all 5 of Nylander, Matthews, Reilly, Tavares, and Marner. You should have moved one before the full NMCs and extensions kicked in, so blame Shanny for that. Last season was the year to blow it up if you were going to do so.
