Sujet: Better balance from a non Leafs fan
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nighthawk</b></div><div>Cherry picking

Byram will be better in the long run with his tool kit.
Ignoring cap flexibility.
Compher is very solid.
Covid $’s are very valuable in these times.
Willy won’t fetch a top 2 proven D but Byram will be one day. Willy is one dimensional on a good contract &amp; the most logical to be moved. If Av’s had a 2nd I’d swap it in.

My logic is not many D could be had especially RHD. Bite the bullet a bit for long term gain &amp; depth.

Compher could become a 3C in the future instead of old fogies &amp; more wingers develop.</div></div>

Byram is left shot left side defenseman. Just like Sandin. Him and Sandin are as close to each other as its possible. Willy one dimensional? In what universe? He is not getting moved. If its 1st with Compher Id bite.

Compher is solid. He is mid-6 player tho and mostly winger. Nylander is top line guy.

This is not even close.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hammerwise</b></div><div>Lesser player? Laughton plays all three positions. Had similar offensive stats in less games, similar age, saves 1.2mil, much better two way player, and plays a type of game the leafs lack with grit and hitting. Better than Kerfoot, and would be perfect for leafs as they lack bottom six pk'ers, physicality and two way play.

Kerfoot might have the higher offensive upside, but what the leafs lacked last year was team defense, and bringing thornton and Simmonds in didn't help that.</div></div>

Kerfoot is much better two-way player than Laughton, when you talk about information with actual evidence (not just "Laughton plays more PK, therefore he is better defensively" type of bs) (take a closer look here: <a href="https://public.tableau.com/profile/bill.comeau#!/vizhome/SKATR2019-2020/SKATR" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://public.tableau.com/profile/bill.comeau#!/vizhome/SKATR2019-2020/SKATR</a> ). Played extremely well on PK when he started to play that position on Leafs towards the end of the season and he is feisty. Offensively, in last 3 years, Laughton scored at pretty fine pace of 0.37 points per game, which is equivalent of 30-point season, thats fine for bottom-6 forward.. Kerfoot scored at pace of 0.51 points per game, which is equivalent of 42-point season, thats a middle-6 production. And yes, he makes 1.2M more, but for 2 more seasons.

I would do Kerfoot for Laughton deal still, but Philly would need to add to Laughton..
