Sujet: Pierre LeBrun on ROR and Leafs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RipNasty</b></div><div>All that is true but what just blows my mind is how all these people seem to think Kerfoot costs the Leafs to move. Why? Because he has a contract and TO needs to move him out to make room for a better player so that means we have to pay to move him. Except every time a player with value is moved he brings back value. Sure Patches was moved for essentially nothing but he has some pretty big term remaining and getting out from under that term had a cost. Kerfoot is A) worth his contract and B) a pending FA meaning he is an easy rental move. St Louis would get another player they can do exactly what they are doing with ROR. Send him out for assets. They would have a better grasp on the deadline market anyways. To think they just won't want Kerfoot because they don't want to take back cap is ridiculous, they will take cap back and it is better for them to do so with a moveable asset. Sure beats taking back a worse contract they won't be able to move. That won't get them more assets it gets them a bad deal that limits what they can do in the off season. It's pretty simple.</div></div>

Because Kerfoot has almost no value for the Blues. They'd need to flip him. The only reason this gets tossed in every Toronto trade for ROR is because you don't want to move any of your top 5 players while St. Louis is giving up arguably the best player on their team.
