To pry Pesce out of Carolina, you're going to need to pay through the nose. He'd become your best defenseman, and it's not really close. You're likely looking at Nylander and some sweeteners. Pesce and Nylander both have 2 years left, Nylander is a year younger, but Pesce plays a much more valuable position. Pesce is a 1RD in Carolina, and Nylander is a 2 RW in Toronto. Nylander scores 80 a year and is garbage defensively, Pesce is one of the best DFD in the NHL and can still put up 30 points a season. If you don't want Nylander moved, that's fine, you're looking at Knies/Robertson + 1st + a conditional 2nd that becomes a 1st? Even then, I don't think Tulsky would give the green light on this.
This is moot. Dundon confirmed a few weeks ago that Pesce, Aho, Slavin, and Jarvis are going to be Canes for most of their careers. The interesting omission was Teravainen, but we'll see.
