Besides the fact that Nylander won't be traded, and our centre depth would be absolute garbage without him and Kadri, this isn't horrible from a defence perspective.

A deal with the Flames for Hamonic is my ideal offseason move, if Hamonic signs an extension after July 1.

I doubt Nylander will be traded either, but in this scenario the Leafs improve on D and have the room to add a 3rd line center at the trade deadline. Dubas needs to work some magic with the cap AND improve the team at the same time.
