Trade Deadline

Welcome to CFACGM.

In most likelihood, not enough from TOR in either deal.

Tarasenko isn;t off by much, but 50% retention and the player is worth a 1st, a 3rd and more. Very very midlevel prospect Ovichnikov has gone back to Russia and really is worth nothing and Kerfoot as an expiring UFA doesn;t add anything to the Blues, who would then be looking to move him. I'd think its close, but you really need to add a prospect that has value. Maybe Abramov or Steeves.

Toews at 50% for a 1st is a light offer, especially if you put any quantifying on it (top 10 protected). I'm thinking its probably a 1st and a solid prospect (one of the leafs top 3 probably: Hirovonen or Robertson or ). And thats still just Toews at 50%.

If Foligno was worth a 1st and 2 4ths for just him and less than 3mil retention, I'm thinking both Tarasenko AND Toews are a bit more than that.

But more than anything, the goaltending and defense haven;t been touched, and thats where I think the team needs help to advance in the playoffs.

Honestly I don't think the Hawks get a 1st for Toews so this would probably work out.
