The Nylander trade offer isn't bad at all. However, for this to make sense for the Leafs, I might suggest deleting a draft choice and adding Zacha to the offer.
Now doing this, I am still not sure I would pull the trigger, but for a player of Nylander's quality, a "Holy Trinity" package is a must: a young up and coming NHLer, a grade A prospect, and a 1st round draft pick.
So, I would argue Kuokkanen, Zacha the Arizona 1st and the 2nd for Nylander with the 4th and 6th. Devils get their 1st line RW, Leafs get a cheaper option at 3rd line centre, which allows them to make additional moves to massage the cap situation while replenishing the system.
Again, not sure I pull the trigger, but it's a package that makes a tonne more sense from a Leafs perspective.
