I don't see how they could possibly resist that offer. Especially with so much salary retained on Bobby Ryan.

3 cap dumps, a rental, and a throwaway pick for Nylander? Come on now.

Yes. It's perfect. And with all the cap space Toronto has, how could they possibly resist? Plus, Marian Gaborik.

Two out of the four players in this trade are a couple years removed from their prime and are being paid WAY too much. I think it's fair to say that Toronto is receiving far better offers than this in real life.

You all seem to have forgotten that MacArthur is on perma-LTIR, and Gaborik is probably done. Those are money dumps, not camp dumps.

I don't actually know what Nylander is worth. He's good, but he's gonna want money, and no one likes a big cap hit.

Another successful experiment in determining what percentage of commenters have a sense of humor.
