<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ToneCapone420</b></div><div>I targetted Henrique because at a retained price of 2912500 i figured he could be a slightly cheaper and more offensive version of Kerfoot for this season and next and then they could move on from him in the offseason when they need to take a run at resigning Matthews Marner and Liljgren. Bjustad i like as a big body with the ability to take some RH draws as well and adds some extra size to the bottom 6 that Kerfoot doesn't have. I also like Accari in that spot. I think if leafs cant resign Meier this offseason they could at least try and flip him to regain some of the pieces they traded off prior to the TDL</div></div>

Yeah, I figured that's why but the cost of acquisition is probably too high for only 2 years and them giving up a lot for Meier. In this case, maybe someone like Laughton (or someone who doesn't take as many penalties), who isn't necessarily more productive than Kerfoot, but he can be their 3C at least 3 more years. Depending on if he will resign at an affordable amount maybe trading for O'Reilly would be better at that cost. Lowest I can see him taking is 4m though, but they can probably get 4mx2 at least. He'll be 33 by then so depending on how his body is feeling maybe he still has 4-6 years in him. Henrique on the other hand is already 33. Or maybe they just get a Kampf replacement (he's probably outpricing himself) and go after a guy like Lafferty. Meier is a significant add so, they don't necessarily need a guy who is good offensive, although Henrique is great defensively as well.

I meant having both Kerfoot+Bjugstad, they can take draws on their strong side, as well as Jarnkrok.

If they go for Henrique, then I think they need to go with a cheaper top 6 option like Domi or Barbashev.
