Toronto Trades
McMann
NRobertson (LTIR)
1st Round Pick 2023

Vancouver Trades
Kuzmenko

Canucks will be trading off most of if not all of their expiring contracts, Kuzmenko I believe will put himself out on the open market to get as much as possible for himself imo, so I do see Vancouver trading him.

Leafs being all in looking to improve on Wing and possibly Defense add a player that will make the Top 6 and Bottom 6 better adding Kuzmenko and moving Jarnkrok to the Bottom 6, they are giving up some future in this deal but it's worth it imo.


Thoughts ?

I wonder why more teams don’t trade guys then resign them the following offseason? Canucks should definitely trade Kuzmenko and it seems like a good fit so there’s a good chance he resigns anyways. Also I say the Canucks take that for sure.

This is definitely believable. I'm a fan of Robertson so it would be tough to see him go. However got to wonder if the Canucks would be interested with him being injured and whether he's able to finally take the step to being effective in the NHL and if his shoulder heals accordingly. Kuzmenko on the Leafs would be ideal though lol.

EBS: it’s a lot to ask of a player. Most wait a long time too to be a UFA and have a shot at seeing who amongst the 32 NHL teams wants them most, or who has the best fit for them. It’s even more complicated for a player with a family.

Besides, if you really like a player, and want to re-sign them, you’re taking a big chance that they might like their new Team situation better. Getting traded can be exciting on the ice, but it gets complicated behind the scenes in a bunch of ways.

I don’t think Kuz returns more then a 1st.

Throw Schenn in and substitute Steeves or Abruzze for McCann and add Hollowell and it is a deal.
