San Jose should do that.

Deal no trade backs

Deal, no future considerations necessary.

There's no middle ground leaf fan proposals on this site. It's either grossly in favor of the leafs or completely giving their **** away. It just depends how confident or depressed they are that day

Lol ain’t that the truth

Meh if Nylander walks away as a UFA than the trade equals 1st Rd'er for EK65, because let's say Nielema is the bribe for retention and let's say the 3rd Rd pick is the bribe for taking Murray. What does that leave the SJS >?

Very late 1st Rd pick and a 1 year rental.

Nylander can be flipped as a TDL asset to recover another 1st, 2nd and roster player probably for SJS.

So you have it wrong, SJS says no trade first.

San Jose will have 30+! Mil in cap to throw at Nylander and going from the hate he got in Toronto to the love he would get in San Jose he very well could stay, and if not signed by the TDL teams would give up a lot to grab him 50% retained at the deadline. We could get away from Karlsson for 2.5 mil retention a year and possibly wind up with 3 1sts + for the trouble! And worst case a 1st and Nylander for the next 7 years!
