Nope, Leafs fans will argue until they're blue in the face (or maybe they already are?) that Kerfoot and Sandin are worth a whole more than they are.
The problem with your statement on Sandin is, Flames fans are the same way with Valimaki.
Kerfoot has value, but to a specific team set, and SEA isn't it. He's a guy that gets traded at the deadline for a second or third to a playoff favorite team that needs to shore up botto 6 depth. Unfotunately, the Leafs have been forced to use him in a second line role, and really need to move him early in the season to clear up space.
Sandin has value to a ton of teams. He's offensively minded, can be physical and has proven he can play in the NHL. He gives SEA more of a future outlook than Soucy does, as he's a UFA next year, while there are still a number of team control years with Sandin.
Holl is in essence a cap dump, but is a serviceable bottom pairing guy that can step up in a pinch and play 20 minutes a night. If the Leafs don't trade him before start of season to clear cap, I'd rather just hang on to him as a depth option for the playoffs. He knows the systems and the guys. It's better than bringing in rental depth.
@KingofRnR I'd move him if it would bring in a key piece for this year. The cap shedding factor helps immensely in this offer, esp with Soucy coming back. I think SEA gets a great piece, and since they only have a commitment this year to Holl and Kerfoot, I think it's a win for them, and an improvement for the Leafs
