You can name every negative you want to try to spin it like he has begative value, but many GMs would love to have a guy who puts up those stats every year. There are very few of them in the NHL. I think david Poile for onem, would love to have him.
Of course teams would love his offense, but they would also expect a complete game from someone who makes over 10% of their entire salary cap room. Not to mention a leadership role that he simply has never shown he has.

Im truly curious what you think that his value would be. Knowing his deficiencies, that he has 56 million dollars still owed after this year, and that he isnt even a ppg player in his Leaf career (never mind his +/- totals)....I would really like to be informed what that return would be.

here are 3 random teams...what would the deal look like with each?

Washington, Dallas, Winnipeg
