MacArthur is our points leader, good scorer, good playmakers, good two-way game too, gritty, etc. Our second line is build for the future (Kulemin-Grabovski-MacArthur) and I hope that we will keep it like that.

MacArthur's are a dime a dozen. You can grab players like him easily enough. He's having a good year but he's not something that can't be replaced.
Big, young, talented centers are
far harder to come by. That's why you make the trade.
Oh, and the C position happens to be a Leaf (and most other teams BTW) need.
