I don't think the Isles trade is in the realm of possibility. You have the optics of trading your current captain, the one who replaced the guy who left, for that very guy who left, along with trading a pair of guys who fit the team's lunchpail identity for a guy who has never given off that kind of vibe. I think the trade makes the Leafs worse on paper, for what it's worth, too.
Beyond that, you've got a deal with 5 players here and 4 of them have full NMC/NTCs and Pageau has a 16-team NTC. The odds of getting all 5 of these guys to sign off on this move seems slim to nil.
