Kessel
Reimer
MacArthur
Best we can do. You can't expect Kassian to be included after the start he's had, much like we don't expect you to give us Kadri anymore.
Kessel is the only the star player Leafs have on their roster. He's not being traded unless he's unhappy and asked for a trade . The return should be an equally skilled young roster player+
Kassian nor Jensen will be traded because Vancouver desperately needs ELC contracts on the team next year. Even if Jensen is only somewhat NHL ready next year, he'll likely make the team and have to figure it out as the season progresses because of the cap. If the Canucks were to trade for Kessel, this need for cheap contracts to fill out the roster would only be amplified.

Fair enough.
Not as tempting as the offer that includes Jensen. However, I think this offer fits the general template that the Leafs should be employing--forward prospect, young goalie, high draft pick. But though I wouldn't ask for Kassian, I'd want a better forward prospect than Gaunce as that 1st is likely going to be a pick that comes a long, long ways into the opening round.
if LA trade it will be offering Penner, Bernier,King (plus add picks or prospects)
i.e Maybe Martinez or something like a third and a future 1st
giving Toronto youth and picks mainly
on top of Pennier, Bernier and King how much more do you think will need to be added ?

We do pay attention to the Kings here. King hasn't been very strong this year to start the season but he was very good in the playoffs.
Not interested in Penner at all and Bernier is alright. We need C's.
Good luck trying to get him. If we move Kessel we want a center coming back, end of story.
This. We don't need prospects/picks and wait for another 3-5 years if those players turn out to be good as Kessel. We would want a proven player back upgrading our top 6
Well apparently the Preds were the team that almost got Kessel last time. Maybe this time?
Not gonna happen but still ...
but if I remember correctly it involved us giving up colin wilson. He's been our best forward so far this year so I'm not too keen on trading him away.

Every fan wants that, doesn't always work out like that though.

I wasn't thinking too hard about the contracts, more so just on value. Reimer is making peanuts though.

keep your garbage there pls...la is not giving away the players we`re interested so no deal with LA..
Its funny only two weeks ago Schneider was untouchable now he's being propsed in trades to the Leafs. I doubt Nonis will trade Kessel at this point with Lupul out for atleast another month trading Kessel would leave a big hole in the top 6 unless Nonis's plan is to tank.
