Chicago is in a full rebuild with Bedard and likely another top 3 pick.

To TOR: D - S. Jones ($2M retained per year)

To CHI: F - F. Minten + 2024 1st

Chicago moves on from Jones who is now 29, picks up a solid prospect and 1st

That's 7 years of retention T-buds. Can't see Chicago agreeing to that.

Leafs ate 8 years of Kessel's $1M, so it's not like it's never been done before.

No chance they retain for that long but trade him for Nylander in the off season along with another depth piece from Chi and we’re laughing.

Big difference between 1 million a year for 8 years and 7 million.

@CKPS who is retaining 7m?

Didn’t Leafs retain $1.2 for close to 6 years?
Think Tbuds asking Chi to retain $2m for 7.
Likely not what Chi wants to do.
Jones at $7.5m is too rich for me and not wanting to lose Minten and the 1st.

Jones does not justify the expenditure.
I would rather offer Minten and the 1st to Seattle for Adam Larsson.
