Nylander Trade

Seems like a bit of an over pay, I do like Timmins though.

Would kinda be a strange deal. Both teams at least this year are kinda in a "win mode". In many ways I like the deal for both teams. Of course the key is do the Leafs really feel Jost is a better than average forward. Dubas knows his former SS Greyhound Timmins, so again if the Leafs think he is an NHLer. But good thoughts on the trade.

I feel this is a fair value trade. Nylander, is now allowed to be next to Kerfoot and make Colorado a 2 line team rather than 1. Toronto doesn't get the immediate defensive help right away, but they add to their prospect pool with Timmins. He could be an injury call up, or hell, scratch Hainsey and call him up. Jost can slot into a line with Kadri and add some speed, or he could be a Kap replacement, but thats unlikely. Colorado may be more lenient to move their 1st because they have the Ottawa one. Overall, fair value trade, like the idea, but not 5 stars because I don't think it will happen.

There's no need to include for the Leafs to include a 2nd rounder here, and for what the Leafs need, I probably would like to see Zadorov included in this deal, but the Leafs might need to send back a defenceman.
