Leafs get a cap dump and a bunch of nothing for one of the best RW in the league? Easy no
A former 2nd overall pick who is playing on the top line for a contending team, who has size and defensive acumen as well as obvious offensive talent, making 2.1 mil for the next 2 years, after which he'll become n RFA....
AND
A 21 year old former first round pick who has been playing in the top 6 for a contending team from the time he was 20, who has size, puck moving ability, physicality and defensive acumen, still on his ELC for the next 2 years...
AND
A 1st overall pick
And all we have to do is bring on a guy who can still contribute to our 3rd line, to go with a long term cost controlled solution for our top pair to partner with Rielly, and a long term top 6 cost controlled winger who will be a no doubt first liner, all for less cap than an expiring Willy who's asking for over $9.5 mil until he's 36? AND A FIRST?!?!
Nevermind my friend here, he's had a little too much of the Willy sauce tonight. We happily accept!
