The Dermott trade is AWFUL

He doesn’t fit with the leafs next year at all, rielly, muzzin and sandin are all better then him on the left side and Holl is better than him on the right side. I get the return could be better but he’s really at best a 4th d but for the most part still a #5 guy. maybe a better player back idrk But I don’t expect anything better.

If you resigned Clifford you don't have the second-round pick to trade to the Devils.

In terms of the other trade, the Kings likely pass, I think the value is right but the Kings are more likely to hold onto Wagner and any high-end draft picks during the rebuild. Additionally, they arguably have 4-5 center prospects better than Petan, and this does not address their one real area of weakness right defense.

sure, but at least move him for someone that you'd use
