<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>Ottawa has plenty of quality LW prospects in the pipeline (Greig, Jarventie, Sokolov, etc) and another one is not necessary.



The types of prospects we are most lacking of are centremen and right-shot RWs.



With that said, I expect that Ottawa will be a somewhat stronger team in 2022-2023 than what they were in recent years.

We have no intention of trading Connor Brown because we intend to compete at some point.

As such, the starting bid on Connor Brown next year for any team will be what the Leafs paid for Nick Foligno last April.

I hope this helps.</div></div>

I mean I would say it's a fair assessment but he will be Ufa and I don't expect Melnyk to pony up the cash for him. You could definitely get that for him but not from the leafs they will just wait till he is Ufa and bring him back.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BCAPP</b></div><div>Ignoring the Sergachev trade (because that just isn't happening): the Kadri for kerfoot swap essentially. The thing is Kadri is going to be like 31 or something when this deal starts. Look at his contemporaries in his draft they've peaked and are beginning their decline. Hopefully slowly mind you. The other top C's from his draft? Tavares and Duchene in the top 10 and ROR in the second round...

I'd certainly take Kadri last two years over kerfoot and almost certainly this year.

But next year I'm less sure especially with a 1.5 mil difference in cap hit</div></div>

I had the same thoughts but even if he's on the decline he can still be effective in other capacities that kerfoot can't provide and only for three years taking hi to 34 Im okay with bringing him back.
