Lee doesnt get moved. Aside from a full ntc ges the captain and is loved in the room. And for a franchise big on culture and loyalty lee will not be asked to leave.
With that out of the way lets break down the trade. Players are worth less in the offswason than at the TDL so i would say FLA 1st for mayfield. Its pick 28 which is a worse pick than most deadline 1sts end up being. It also doesnt have a 3rd like savard and chiarot (it also has to be enough for the isles to not just keep him and move him at the TDL, a big physical top 4 RHD at 725k (if retained) will be in high demand). That leaves mittelstadt for lee. Thats not enough. Lees contract isnt great but hes still a consistent 30 goal scorer. He also is a massive part of our stagnant pp. Mittelstadt is already 23 and his production was really similar to last years so i dont see it getting significantly more. Hes a 40 point 15 goal guy and hes a C which is logjammed on the isles. The isles would need some real value for lee which isnt here.
