Kubalik would be a great fit in the Leafs middle six imo. He's physical and aggressive in all zones - not really a great play driver, but he would produce really well next to guys like Matthews, Marner, Nylander, JT, etc. and add some of that grit that the Leafs are trying to get just the right amount of.
Problem is, his QO is $4 million for next season, so the number here probably isn't going to work unless he isn't qualified (possible, but hopefully unlikely). I wonder if some kind of deal structured w/ Kubalik for Mrazek and Holl could make sense? Obviously the Hawks would need a sweetener, but I think here the Leafs have a chance to really make an upgrade, while also shedding cap space.
