I put a little description in the CBJ side of this trade titled “Toronto” to see what they’d look like after this trade.

Let’s get to it.

I think everyone was shocked this morning when the Kapanen trade came through. I wanted to see what a Nylander deal could look like. Let me know if I’m way off, or if either side would have to add.

I always see Kerfoot being moved out for cap space and because he’s not what TOR thought he’d be. I don’t watch much TOR hockey so I can’t comment on his ability. I’ve kept him on LW because I’ve put Texier on C, but they can flip flop, or Kerfoot could be moved out.

I feel like this trade helps both teams out. Toronto gets a helluva G prospect, who could tandem with Campbell once Andersen is gone. Can’t see them spending the $$ it would cost to keep him but I could be wrong. Not sure CBJ would be willing to move one of the top G prospects though.

Columbus gets a very good winger locked up for term, but also at a somewhat hefty price, as well as a wild card in the draft with the 1st round pick.

Toronto gets a great C/LW player in Texier. I think he’s more suited in the top 6 so maybe you slide Robertson to 3LW and Kerfoot to 3C and put Tex on the left side with one of the top 2 lines.

Like I said in the CBJ side of this, I doubt CBJ moves Texier as he, PLD, and Foudy seem to be their C of the future, but maybe they take a young scoring winger. Who knows.

I added Nutivara because I’m not sure of the values, and he helps the RD depth, and gives a guy like Liljegren another year with the Marlies to fine tune his game.

This trade gives TO some cap space to play with in the next year or two and keeps them young. Not that Nylander is old lol.

So yeah, is this something that *could* happen? Is the value close? Way off?

Let me know!
Thanks!
