I'm assuming that OP is making this under the assumption that Pie signs with Toronto? I could be wrong

It doesn't because it's NJ digging one hole to fill another. Adding Nylander would be splendid but moving Severson to do so takes away one of the two regular NHL defenseman they have, plus he's on a team friendly deal and is solid despite what a lot of the "fans" want to admit.Severson

No. We’re rebuilding. Why would a rebuilding team give up a top 10 pick and one of their top prospects.

Great, another skill forward, you take our size and grit. We will be the TML in no time.They are getting a top 15 pick and 24 year old, consistent 60 point nhl scorer in return.

Don't get me wrong, I understood the response my post would get, and it's warranted. But I'd rather take the time and build a core instead of having 2-3 insanely good players and filling in around them with odds and ends.Sure, I guess that's not better than being one of the worst teams in the NHL consistently over last few years. I can see what there is to complain about.
This doesn’t solve any of the Devils more pressing problems on defense but if you’re going to put the 15OA in there you kind of have to take it. I guess the Devils brass may want to see who’s there at 7 before pulling the trigger but the Leafs get so hosed here they may just take it and run.
Not just another Leafs proposal but another Leafs proposal with William Nylander in it.Just what this forum needed....another Leafs proposal!
You’re only flaw, if it can be called a flaw, is that you’re too generous a soul because I don’t believe the Leafs would include the 15th pick in the return. That pick makes this trade a lot easier for me to agree to even if we’re losing out of a top tier pick.I get that the Leafs get the short end of the stick here to an extent but we gain the cap space required to fill our biggest need which is RHD (Pieterangelo).
It absolutely sucks to lose Nylander. He's a really good player who the Devil's would absolutely be thrilled with because I think he'll score even more with them with added ice time.
For Toronto, if we can it allows them to to grab Drysdale, Sanderson, or even Askarov if they really want him, while getting some toughness they lack in Miles Wood and Nolan Foote, who shouldn't be far away.

Doesn’t Nylander want to be a center? That’s not likely to happen with NJ.
No, he's definitely not a center. That has been tried, and failed

If he thinks he’s a center it’s still an issue. If he thinks he should push Hischier or Hughes to wing for him I think that would have to be discussed with the agent before any trade is completed. He’s a wonderfully skilled player but I don’t want him unless he will be happy with how he is deployed. He’s paid too much and would be counted on as a core piece and has to be treated accordingly.
