Kevin leblanc, Marriott ferrao and evander kane
For
Mitch marner and travis dermont
The cap is about even in this trade.
Reason for the sharks obv they get rid of kane and get out of a terrible situation. All while adding a young overpaid superstar and decent young dman
Reason why thenleafs do it. Quantity over quality by adding leblanc and kane it helps spread the dollars around on 2 fowards vs 1 making there foward group deeper and better overall. mario ferrao would be a light upgrade over dermont.
Is this trade fair in value? Possible? Aside from kane being a locker room cancer is the value for only ice play fair ?
Spell check will do wonders for you my man. I don't think Toronto wants anything to do with evander kane, let alone giving up marner for him. The concept of spreading the dollars around and creating quality depth in their lineup is something i 100% agree with, which is why i thought signing Tavares at 11 mill or whatever it is was dumb in the first place, though obviously it's hard to turn down that kind of star power.
I think marner to a team like STL, MIN, MTL, who are quality deep teams but crave star power at the top of their lineup would be more inclined to make this type of deal with toronto, tho obviously the cap hit is an issue.
Also Ferraro is a massive upgrade on Dermott, if ferraro played in toronto and dermott SJ, Ferraro would be beloved by leafs fan base and Dermott would be somebody half of the fan base has never heard of.
