With injuries and daily soreness starting to creep in many lineups it's time the leafs get depth at center.

Kerfoot just doesn't do it for me if JT or Matthews are out of action and spezza can't be more than a 4th liner.

Engvall doesn't get a shot and Boyd is simply an extra player no more than a 4th liner

Looks like Dubois and torts are at it again so time to jump on this before Vancouver or montreal do

To columbus
Kerfoot vesey engvall (4.575 leaving Toronto) plus rodian amirov since Columbus wanted him at draft any ways.

For
Dubois (5 but need to replace 1 extra guy so 5.7 coming to Toronto)
So to make this work Columbus needs to retain 1.125 million minimum so ask to retain 2 for some flexibility.

For Columbus doing this Toronto offers 2021 2nd round pick which is about value of 2 million retaining

So
Kerfoot vesey engvall amirov 2nd 2021
For
Dubois(40% retaining)

Is this enough or too much

Not dealing any of the big 4. It's basically a deal of depth and prospect and pick for 1 guy

Hyman Matthews marner
Nylander Tavares simmonds
Mikheyev Dubois Anderson
Brooks spezza Boyd

Rielly Brodie
Muzzin holl
Dermott Bogosian

Thornton hurt
Robertson hurt

Lehtonen Sandin taxi

When injuries subside
Robertson joins Dubois Mikheyev
Thornton spezza Anderson become 4th
Brooks and Boyd join taxi

Because Dubois has 2 years that means it’s 2X2 for the retaining so leafs either add 2022 2nd rounder to cover that extra 2 million retaining or offer liljegren.

Also due to all players needing to quarantine 7-10 days that retaining is a must as for those days leafs need to cover Dubois roster spot but he is counted on main roster

During this time

Hyman Matthews marner
Mikhayev Tavares Anderson
Brooks Nylander simmonds
Spezza Boyd


Rielly Brodie
Muzzin holl
Dermott Bogosian
Lehtonen / Sandin

3-4 games until Dubois shows up.

With all the teams apparently in play, I think that offer gets beat. As I said at the start, Montreal will be all over this. I wouldn't be surprised to see them offer something like Suzuki+ (+) .

Suzuki won’t be involved

That kotkenemi (no clue on spelling) plus an add probably is as far as montreal will go.

They won’t want to mess with chemistry. This team looks legit or Vancouver just looks bad lol.

The effort I'm seeing from Dubois is childish. If this is all it takes then sure but I wouldn't give much more.
