If deal is Gardiner and Kadri, jury very much out on Kadri as to whether he will be a regular top six NHLer
Giving up Gardiner just doesn't seem like a good idea to me for the Leafs. If I were them I would try to work around Kadri and picks or Bozak. I don't think replacing young prospects is easy and they are shooting themselves in the foot if they continue to sell off their future.
