Yeah, I think it might be a fit for Kerfoot with the Canes. But in a cap strapped league, and Canes have options....the return to the Leafs would be much lower.

I think a Bear/Dermott swap would be fair for both sides

If the Canes are going to make a move for a Patches replacement, it won’t be Kerfoot, but someone who can actually drive offense. And before you start the argument if he just scored 50 points, he benefitted from the linemates he played with. Also, Canes won’t be paying anything above a third to bring in Kerfoot if that happened.

I don't think either one of these options are primary targets for the Canes.

Tbh i'd rather just sign Milano for a little cheaper. Also Drury is gonna be in the lineup over Suzuki. I don't mind the Bear/Dermott swap.
