I like Toffoli but still a steep price for a career 50 point guy who will be 30 when the playoffs start. Certainly don't think it's a steal of a trade.

More importantly this likely means no big upgrade at C and we are riding with Backs as the 2nd line C.

I've said for years this team can be a legit Cup contender if Backlund was the clear 3rd line C but unfortunately that's still not the case.
