What would a depth addition rental like Kunin cost? a 3rd+4th?

If he wants to move on, that's probably fair. If he was willing to stay, I'd rather just keep him though for like $3Mx3. He's our 6th or 7th best forward.

I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a late second but 3rd+4th isn't bad.

Would he be a solid addition to help our 3rd line?

4th line, yes. 3rd line? Not really.

We have one of the best 4th lines going with Lorentz - Kampf - Dewar I dont think it makes sense to tinker there

He doesn't drive play and needs to be on a line with someone who does. But he has surprisingly solid finish and will sell out to make a play. On pace for 18 goals this season on a tough team to find goals on. Solid PKer and definitely a character guy.

I think a playoff team would benefit from having him.

The Leafs may only make sense there if other priorities force them to move Kampf and also to get a 3rd team involved to retain on Kunin.

Not a great fit, TBH. But I can see Tre being interested nonetheless.

Sharks fans, how much has he played at centre this year?

I'd say he's been deployed there maybe 25% of the time? Wouldn't call it optimal, he's better suited as a winger.

Would the Leafs trade for Byfield? Or too cash strapped?

 

[OrrNumber4]

If Kunin is on your 3rd line, you're a pretender
If he's on your 4th line, you're a contender!

This is known as the Kunin test...

Depends if you can take money back and what you're looking for in return. We don't have a lot to offer quite frankly
