"If this deal is to occur, the Flames would have to retain 50% of Gaudreau's $6.75 million cap hit and possibly take Alex Kerfoot's $3.5 million contract. The Leafs would also have to give up Rasmus Sandin or Nick Robertson, along with an early draft pick."
So let's say Johnny 50% retained for Kerfoot+Robertson+late 1st?
Yes/no.
I think I do that. Kerfoot is a useful player but Robertson is the prize here.
Classic Al Coates "something now something later" deal. |
Have we learned nothing...don't trade the best player in the deal to the Leafs. The above looks a lot like a worse version of the Phaneuf trade.
