I dont think Clarkson is tradeable...period. Kessel with his contract comes awful close to that level as well being a winger. So that leaves Neon Dion who although he is both overrated and overpaid, does eat big minutes and if not leaned on to be a leader on a team could probably round himself into a pretty good player again...though never ever 7 million a year good.
That leads me to believe that he could be a trade chip but the leafs will never ever get what they want for him.
A struggling player with upside and a decent pick may be the ceiling on his return.

Are you kidding me? He's close to Clarkson in value?
Let's stop pretending Phil Kessel is a penny overpaid. He never misses a game and finishes top 10 in scoring every year with Bozak centering him.
