Based from Jason Botchford's of the Athletic's speculation over the Leivo deal last week:
I wonder if this deal makes sense as a framework:
To Vancouver: Nikita Zaitsev, 3rd rounder
To Toronto: Sam Gagner, Troy Stecher
The cap hit's are within a 100k of each other, so that's not an issue. Canucks get a 2nd pair RHD locked in long term while the leafs get a younger RHD and cap flexibility. Leafs can add mid round picks/prospects if needed to sweeten the pot.
