To Tor: Christian Dvorak, 4th
To Ari: Jake Gardiner
Gives Arizona the D man they are looking for that has top 4 potential and could produce in a change of scenery
Gives Toronto another highly skilled forward prospect that can play with top prospect Mitch Marner. Also another mid round draft pick
Toronto has the motivation to do this deal because TJ Brennan can step right into gardiners role (17 pts in 19games in AHL) because of how incredibly impressive he's been and makes Gardiner expendable+ gets more prospects for their rebuild
Thoughts?

Not enough for gardiner, maybe change to a second round pick.

That's very enticing with how good Dvorak is doing but the leafs would probably want at least a 3rd in return as well.

I really don't know much about Dvorak to make a statement, honestly seems kinda low but then again don't know much about Dvorak like I said.

Not bad but make the pick a 2nd.
30 Nov 2015 08:41:01
Um, read a bit about Dvorak and you'll quickly recognize that it's the Leafs adding a 2nd round pick - at least.

No one wants Gardiner. I wouldn't move a promising young player like Dvorak for him.

Haha @Drais really? I mean he good but I don't feel like his production would be nearly as high if he wasn't playing with Marner or Tkachuk.

people get wayyyy too high on prospects, the worst is of those still in juniors. scoring above a point a game there doesn't mean much, rich clune scored over a point a game in his age 19 season in the O. don't get me wrong, producing there is a good, and essentially necessary, stepping stone, but its far from a guarantee of anything beyond an elc if he hasn't already gotten one.
