Not sure you clearly understood the original point, some people have over estimated his value, to replace him it would be quite easy. He is not unique, special or address any of the shortcomings of this line up.
He's a bottom 6 forward, and there are tonnes of bottom 6 forwards.

But if the Leafs replaced him with another bottom 6 forward they'd still be a bottom 6 forward.

They need a play making Center to go with Nick. Lindholm with Nylander and Nicky, would be a good experiment.

If not trying him in top 6 - they need to move him in a package to acquire a D man or goalie.

Robertson should absolutely get top six minutes he scored 14 goals playing 11 minutes and in less games than Bertuzzi who only scored 7 more goals playing 16 minutes while Domi 9 goals total playing 13 minutes per game.

The Leafs need to get Robertson more ice time and see if he can do the same magic his brother Jason is doing in Dallas right now.

Should they stick around I think Robertson and Liljegren will look better under Berube than Keefe. Sheldon had it out for both of them and never gave them much leeway. Was stupid of him to take out Robertson for Gregor when this team's whole problem in the playoffs is scoring goals.

Way too many guys out there just killing the clock. I agree sitting Robertson for Gregor was awful. At least give a lineup with both Nylander and Robertson a look.
