honestly think its pretty understandable. If Seider joins the leafs, he would instantly be their best defenseman. He is only 20 years old and has 2 years remaining on his ELC. Compare that with any of the greats like McDavid, Draisaitl, Matthews, etc who are all have cap hits over 10 mil and haven't won anything. Then take a look at your offer: a decent offensive winger with defensive lapses, a mediocre defensive prospect with defensive lapses, another winger prospect (like we need more wingers) and a late first round pick. No man, Detroit is not interested in trading Seider to Toronto for anything they have.

Personally I'd would rather have Seider.

I thought that what you might say that.

Leafs don't have the pieces to get Moritz Seider, That sure as hell doesn't get him. Doen't even come close. Look at what it would take to get Rasmus Dahlin Seider would be just as expensive if not more.
