Quoting: Borocop
there is not a single reason for columbus to do this
Quoting: TheOtherAuston
I mean other than the fact that their player wants a trade and should maximize return your right
Quoting: BigOaf69

yeah, most are pretty bad. Habs fans are notorious for over valuing their pieces.
The Leafs (correctly) reject this trade 100% of the time.
1. Campbell > Korpisalo (and $1,800,000 cheaper)
- Korpisalo | Last 3 years = 0.903 save percent | 82 games played | $3,400,000 x 2 years (retention added)
- Campbell | Last 3 years = 0.917 save percent | 62 games played | $1,600,000 x 2 years
2. Nylander = Dubois (and signed for twice as long)
- Nylander | 2019-20 pace = 38 goals + 72 points | Career pace = 24 goals + 60 points | $6,800,000 x 4 years
- P-Dubois | 2019-20 pace = 21 goals + 57 points | Career pace = 22 goals + 55 points | $5,000,000 x 2 years
- Dubois is slightly better defensively than Nylander (but he's slightly worse offensively as well)
- Nylander was no slouch on defense last year (among NHL leaders takeaways + transition stats).
- If Toronto adds two solid prospects on top of Nylander, they'll lose both goalie and skater swaps.
Some of you need to look in the mirror.
