1st and Robertson is more then enough for Toews and Domi. Maybe add a 3rd but I mean at this point in his career Toews is a solid 3C option but probably should not be in a contenders top 6. That cap hit would have to come way down but since the Hawks can only retain 50% they may not get a lot for Toews. Domi is honestly more valuable in this trade imo. In his prime, can play wing or C, has some bite, can play top 6, low cap hit, etc.

Yeah, I agree and I don't think Dubas even pays that ask. However, I think Anaheim is benefiting from that trade too much, and Domi is essentially being moved for free.
If Robertson+1st for is enough for those two, Anaheim should be getting less for sure. There could even be contenders willing to retain some for a 4th or 5th (the second team doesn't need to retain 50%).
My issue with it is more of a consistency thing, I feel like Anaheim is benefitting too much off the trade, and I get it but maybe you just have the wrong team retaining, a team like Buffalo (if out of the playoff race) would probably do it for a 4th. Leafs retained 50% (2.5m) on Lehner in 2020 for a 5th, so there is bound to be a better deal out there.
I don't think Dubas would give up a 1st and Robertson unless he's getting back 2023 2nd (probably TBs) from Chicago
So the adjustment I would make is 1st 2023+Robertson+a 2025 3rd for Toews, Domi + 2023 2nd (TB) and a 4th round pick to a team to retain 50% like Vancouver.
Another thing is the Leafs are probably not going to retain on Kerfoot. If they can't move him out without retention, then they probably keep him over acquiring Domi, or move Engvall instead.
