How about a 3 way trade
LA gets Nylander (Tor)
Dallas gets Turcotte and Kuzmenko (LA)
Toronto gets Robertson (Dal)
A team may have to add a pick or low prospect. I could see sending the other Nylander as well. This is all predicated on players waiving no-trade clauses.
1.) 08 Jan 2026 15:30:31
I don't like the thought of losing our best right handed player.
2.) 08 Jan 2026 18:31:40
I’m struggling to understand why Dallas would agree to their return.
3.) 08 Jan 2026 19:51:28
Definitely a head scratcher. La would have to give a lot more if leafs and stars are giving up those elite players.
4.) 09 Jan 2026 13:22:07
I believe Dallas would be motivated because they have a few RFA that will demand money including Robertson. LA has two second round picks so could move one to secure trade.
5.) 09 Jan 2026 21:34:26
How about a three way lol.
6.) 10 Jan 2026 04:05:41
Turcott and Kuzmenko?
Dallas gets robbed.
Nil doesn’t consistently have one of the better teams in the league
League because he is stupid!

What about a trade with LA
Nylander and Domi
For
Byfield and Kuzmenko
Does anyone add?
1.) 02 Jan 2026 18:05:01
Yes La.
2.) 03 Jan 2026 00:11:57
Maybe Nylander for Byfield and Clarke
Or
Nylander for Quinton Byfield and Liam Greentree.
I appreciate the desire to move Domi as I am not a Domi fan either.
14 Dec 2025 17:30:55
Trade Matthews for Byfield.
1.) 14 Dec 2025 19:16:21
Are you high?
2.) 14 Dec 2025 20:58:45
lol. Clearly.
3.) 15 Dec 2025 13:03:44
LA could be a good target if trying to trade Matthews though.
4.) 15 Dec 2025 16:27:26
Ya for a haul not just Byfield. Draft picks and prospects.
5.) 16 Dec 2025 00:06:01
Matthews for Byfield, Clarke and Greentree.
6.) 16 Dec 2025 10:10:59
Matthews gone to LA is a great target! BUT not straight up more pieces have to be involved maybe from Torontos side to get it done.
Matthews plus for
LA Q Byfield B Clarke L Greenetree
If this was offered I’d take it in a heartbeat then
Nylander to the Ducks for Sennecke and Helleson?
7.) 16 Dec 2025 10:17:19
Ducks Sennecke, Helleson
Leafs Nylander and a prospect.
Tell you the truth with where this team is headed if do Nylander for Sennecke straight up. We’re up 10 mill in cap space which I believe we’d have to take someone else as a dump back in the deal but not 6 more years of a dump. So up 10 mil and this kid looks like a future top player in the league. With the recently mentioned Matthews trade return as well as these pieces the leafs would be doing ok in a couple years I think. Thoughts?
8.) 16 Dec 2025 16:23:08
I still think LA adds a pick or 2 maybe if it’s one a 1st if multiple 2nd and 3rd.
9.) 17 Dec 2025 19:07:54
Nylander gets you more than just 2 players add a 1st pick or multiple 2nd and 3rds.
21 Jul 2025 14:09:26
See a trade fit between Tor and LA
LA sends Doughty and Byfield
Tor sends Nylander, Benoit, and Jarnkrok
1.) 21 Jul 2025 21:06:49
Never gonna happen.
21 Jun 2025 11:12:43
Leafs Trade Nylander, Nylander, Kampf, and Robertson
to
LA for Byfield, Foegle
Leafs get rid of flashy one dimensional players for size, youth and home town boys.

Move on from Kampf and Jarnkrok, now that bonuses are paid. Dallas needs to clear space, bring in Robertson through trade and he can play top line RW or 2nd with Tavares.
1.) 02 Jul 2025 14:48:01
I know everyone is high on Robertson, but I don't think another soft, skilled, poor defensively winger is the answer.
2.) 02 Jul 2025 15:38:49
I'm not that high on Robertson, but I can see why the Leafs would target him. He can score, has size and is still pretty young while being an RFA end of contract.
18 Feb 2025 10:46:31
If NYI are serious about trading Dobson then Leafs need to be more than just in on the trade. Here is a chance to get a great young player. If we take Engvall as well do we have the trade pieces to make it happen. I think taking Engvall is worth giving up a first round pick.
1.) 19 Feb 2025 13:06:21
If they're willing to lose Dobson it means they are tearing it down completely for years to come. That isn't something teams do who wish to contend in the near future. I'd say in that case they don't care about Engvall's contract.

12 Jan 2025 14:37:44
I really believe a trade for Parayko makes us contenders. We don’t need anymore 4,5,6 d-men a solid #1 pushes rest of d down a spot. I would give up whatever it takes prospect wise. The good news is Parayko has a full no trade, so he has to agree to the move.
17 Nov 2024 14:44:24
If trading all that, why not add a little more and go after Michael Rasmussen from Detroit. Mid 20’s, big centre signed long term at decent number.
03 Feb 2024 22:49:54
Throw in an LTIR from arizona and cap problems disappear.
03 Jan 2024 12:18:57
Although it is LAs problem to fit in Nylander after this year. The cap is going up and Kopitars salary is going down 3 mil. It means they may have to trade a middling winger in the off season, but LA has to be worried that they couldn’t score on a Toronto team that leaks goals so easily.
