What would it take ?
The leafs have there core in place. The isles have there core in place and a core that has had succsess in the playoffs and regular season. John tavares is the crown jewel of the isles organization, and is currently a top 10 player. Not only can the leafs not aquire Tavares but neither can any other team in the league, and nor will they try. John tavares will be an islander for life imo and his legacy will be with them. Would love to have him but he's going to be signing an extension with the isles within a year and continue trying to help them won a cup. Best of luck to him and isles fans.
It would be Matthews+. And the plus would be big.
Why would the Isles want to trade an elite number one centre who is entering his prime and has a sweetheart contract?

It doesn't matter, these stupid Tavares threads will be popping up all season.
