Value of: Mason Marchment to the Leafs at the draft.

6"5 and close to 220? I think Berube would like that very much.

Because Berube is an NHL coach and what NHL coach doesn't?
And he's a guy who uses his size. We are not talking about Nick Bjugstad here. To your 2nd point, I can see Geurin being very interested in Marchment. They might not be the most skilled, but having a forward group with Marchment, Foligno, Hartman, Trenin, and JEE would be a PITA to play against.

I would think that Marchment would have quite a bit of value, though a bit less if the acquiring team eats almost all of the AAV. A late 1st? 2nd plus a good prospect? DAL is a really good team. I can't see them being interested in losing talent. I think it's far more likely that they send a pick and Dumba to some non playoff, D starved team to gain cap space, not trade Marchment.

The thing is they do need to clear space and they don't really have draft picks to package with Dumba

A 2nd and a 3rd would actually be a solid offer considering their cap space
Kind of ironic for you to be saying that DAL doesn't have the draft picks. Leafs have traded their all of their firsts, and one of their 2nds over the next three years. Trading a 2nd and 3rd would leave them with 1 2nd and two thirds in the top 3 rounds over the next three years. Toronto has a bad prospect pool that is only going to get worse over the next few years due to the lack of picks. That's fine if they are getting to the Cup finals like EDM or FLA, but they aren't.

Did I say Toronto has a great prospect pool?

No I said Dallas doesn't have a lot of picks to package with Dumba if that's what they wanted to do which is objectively true
