Thread: Leafs Nation
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MrGnarVar</b></div><div>i like this trade for both teams as well but I would want it to happen at the draft in case there is a guy NJ really likes at 18. Because i think pick 20 could get this done in a pinch depending on who's available and who each team is high on.

You are also correct in assuming 7OA is not getting moved by NJ.</div></div>

Its a realistic possibility for sure because the Leafs could use the cap space and draft capital (then again, who wouldn't) and NJ would get a guy who could be Palmieri's replacement but better. Idk what NJ will get for Palmieri but an opportunity to upgrade with a guy whose proven that he could play and has term on his deal would probably be too good for NJ to pass up. Considering their picks, the Leafs would obviously want one of them but getting 2 is asking for a lot from NJ, which is why I included 2 prospects and a 4th rounder to make the Leafs get value from Nylander and NJ doesn't have to spend a lot for someone like the Islanders did with getting JGP. Both teams benefit from this deal, regardless if it happens before, during or after the draft.
