Once the Leafs realize that they aren't going to get what they want for him then it will depend on how much they want to get rid of him in terms of what they are going to get.
I'm not exactly sure what kind of player, 1st and prospect you think a team is giving up but I think you are going to be highly let down in the end.

He was top 10 scoring this year, but was 70th last year in a comparable amount of games. Lets not get ahead of ourselves.
But you don't trade Hudler for Kessel for a myriad of other reasons.
