Your p ok staed offers are bad.

 

[Coffee]

this is a p ok staed offer if I ever seen on

 

[Sticksandsun]

Don't see either side doing this.

 

[TheDoldrums]

Knies has the highest offensive upside here and the Leafs are desperate for scoring from outside their big 4. Hayton would be great but not worth the cost.

 

[LeafChief]

No thank you.

 

[hamzarocks]

I would want Knies+1st for Guenther/Cooley/Keller which Utah won't want to do while I wouldnt want Crouse + Hayton for Knies

No deal to be made here.

If Knies is dealt it should be as centerpiece for a star player

 

[dirtydanglez]

id much rather knies.

Clearly Utah is not trading any of Guenther/Cooley/Keller.

 

[I am Canadian]

I would definitely be interested in Hayton in a separate deal (if possible) but Knies is simply untouchable.

Yup and leafs wont sell Knies for a low value package of Hayton + Crouse

 

[Summer Rose]

Lawson Crouse is having a very down year. Hayton is... an interesting case. Not at all living up to his draft pedigree, but he's a useful player. All that said, as a Utah fan, I'd take this trade and run, because it doesn't strike me as very good value for Toronto at all.

 

[SHANNYPLAN]

Knies is not available

 

[Llewzaher]

I would take it as Knies and Cooley had some good chemistry playing together..

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Clearly Utah is not trading any of Guenther/Cooley/Keller.

That's the point, if Knies goes it has to be for an impact player.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Leafs have been searching for a player like Knies for 15+ years. We are not moving him unless it's to acquire a true impact piece like a top Dman or something.

 

[MNRube]

I think this trade makes Toronto better. Crouse would be a good fit with Marner and Matthews and Hayton would beef up the middle 6.
