if it meant the return was Nylander (signed to a deal which I imagine would be somewhere around 8 years, $80M).

To Toronto: Tanev, Backlund, 2024 1st round pick (PIT), 2025 3rd round pick (PIT)
To Pittsburgh: Noah Hanifin
To Calgary: William Nylander (8 Years, $80M), Brodie (dump)

Announce Nylander and Lindholm extensions together. Slap the "C" on Lindholm, and we're beginning to see the re-establishment of the structure we had in 2021/2022.

Huberdeau - Lindholm - Nylander
Dube - Kadri - Sharangovich
Mangiapane - Ruzicka - Coleman

Is that enough going to Toronto? Toronto extends Backs and Tanev? They'd then hold 2x 1st round picks and 2x 3rd round picks in 2024.
I don't mind adding Nylander but giving him $10 mil is a much bigger mistake than giving Lindholm $8.5ish. Lindholm is a more valuable player than Nylander.
