The only way I can see is a swap of problem children. Sharon in Calgary is permanently in the doghouse. That contract looks good in the top line, but fourth line or scratch and it's ugly. Likewise Brandon Carlo has not filled the role they were hoping for in Toronto, which is why they like Ras. Poor little Jarnkrok is stuck on the fourth line and is UFA. So, how you make the trade work, with money and value.
From Toronto
Easton Cowan
2028 1st (top five protected) or 2027 2nd
Brandon Carlo
Calle Jarnkrok
From Calgary
Rasmus Andersson (50% retained)
William Stromgren (needs a new home badly)
Yegor Sharongovich
I think that could be sold to both bases.

Not if Sharongovich is included, a huge negative value.
