The Leafs should be able to get more from Minny than just that return, especially with Anderson getting an extension

Maybe. I added the Leafs 2020 2nd in last second. Maybe no Second round pick.

I know Min is super high on Joel Ek. But statistically he isn't anything special. Basically 2x young 3rd liners and 9th overall. So take out 2nd?

Remember a big part of the value is in straight up cap space. Min is eating all kinds of cap space for the Leafs.

No from Minnesota.

Fair point. If you add Dubnyk, then you can probably change the 2nd to a 4th. Minny would be getting their starter and a guy who could possibly be their 1C if they think Nylander can move back to the middle. I personally dont see Joel Ek being anything more than a middle-6 player but Minny has weird talent "evaluation," if you can call it that.

Bad take. They would be crazy not to accept this.

It's a no. Not moving the 9th overall for that.

Why does Florida take on another 2m in cap with an exchange of centres? Unless Accarili is so much less a player that Kerfoot, Florida declines, then why would the Leafs want an inferior centre?
Thornton isn't coming to the Leafs for 700,000...maybe no money could convince him.
And this sign and trades for upcoming UFAs, a year out, are almost always nonsensical. Besides Minni has two NHL goalies.
