He's been playing well. and teams need depth at all positions in the playoffs. I don't mind if he's in a package for an upgrade at the deadline. That makes sense. But I don't want him to be liquified for a pick or anything like that. There's no sense in that.

Who knows what happens in the playoffs. If a star winger gets hurt, suddenly Robertson could be a very important guy for a stretch. You need talent just like you need grit on the roster.

Has Robertson had a change of heart? If there's a lateral move to be made with an asset who wants to be a Leaf and we know will remain a Leaf past this season, I think maximizing his value in trade for that asset rather than liquidating it for a pick makes a lot sense as well.
