<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TavaresLeafs91</b></div><div>Iafallo is extremely overrated and Muzzin will bounce back and be a Norris nominee. Durzi on the other hand will be very elite. Iafallo will he a good 3rd liner for Toronto.</div></div>

Iafallo is perhaps the most underrated player in the NHL. If you think he's overrated, you've not watched him enough.

Muzzin may bounce back, but until he does, he's injury prone and negative value. He was never elite, even during his best years on the Kings. Solid #2 defenseman, but that's about it.

The fact that Durzi is signed to a team-friendly contract for two seasons while Sandin is holding out makes Durzi worth significantly more.

Honestly, even if both of those draft picks are going back to LA, the Kings still say no.

Sujet: What I would love to see next year but not likely
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Subbanator7667</b></div><div>Price hadn't suffered his knee injuries yet and had shown he could carry a team deep into the playoffs. He still had top tier status among the NHL at that time, Gibson has never had that status. Price wasn't worth his contract but teams definitely still thought he did.</div></div>

Yes, he has, the west knows this. The east who basically never sees him play doesn't. Gibson has been a lifer on a small market team overshadowed by it's big brother 40 miles away. That would be like if Price was a lifetime Sens goalie and you asked a Kings fan about him. They wouldn't care, because no one follows the team. However, Montreal would know if Price has been on the Sens.

Gibson not being on that level in your eyes is evidence of the optics difference between big and small market teams.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>it's almost like a significant amount of people keep saying the leafs will have to pay to move him. If the leafs would take something like even a 3rd for him right now he'd be gone</div></div>

I would challenge you to find a current cup competitor that has the cap space and would give you more than a late round pick to get him. Only team that comes to mind who has cap space and is a competitor is Minnesota. Everyone else who can afford him sees no value in him because he is a rental.

Toronto is significantly over the cap, doesn't want to loose Sandin, and attached NMC to everything that moved outside of their league min players and their Coredashians. The only players they can realistically move are Muzzin, Kerfoot, and Holl. Muzzin's only trade home evaporated today when Ana picked up Kulikov, so he is out. Kerfoot is the next biggest contract, and is internally replaceable, and every other GM knows this.

The best deal you would get from ANA is hockey swap Kerfoot for Grant. Minnesota might throw you a late round pick, though their fans seems to think that wont happen. Where else are you going to send him?
