I really like the ideas behind your trades; they make sense and they're ones I haven't seen before. However, they do need to be tweaked, especially the Ducks deal.
Anaheim wouldn't be willing to part with Lindholm and (as much as Carlyle may like Bozak) they're already overcrowded at Center, so the deal could be simplified to the framework of JVR for Andersen. The looming expansion draft may make for a trade market (and thereby drive Andersen's value down) so the Leafs might be able to get some additional value back. Kevin Bieksa is worth next to nothing to the Ducks, so the Leafs could add him for experience/leadership/depth on the blue-line if they were so inclined; he has an NMC, but he could waive it to go home to Ontario (the NMC also means the Leafs would have to buy him out before the expansion draft, but the buyout Cap hit would be minimal at that point). Simon Despres, Brandon Montour, and Josh Manson will likely all be exposed in the expansion draft, so one of them could also be on the table for the right price.
