I think TOR fans can take Pesce off their list of desirables. After his fantastic 2nd half of the season and the team getting spurned by Fox, I don't think he's remotely available. While they still have 3 top 4 quality Rd under contract for next year, without Fox, the uncertainty of re-signing TVR or Faulk, plus Hamilton the following year, is too much to bear. With Pesce under contract for 5 more years, they're set with their top pair RD. Hopefully, they re-up Hamilton and they're set for much longer.
While Fox is a completely different player than Pesce, him signing would have meant that they had at least 1 quality RD under team control for the foreseeable future. With Fox taking his ball to only play for NYR most likely, the only long-term solution now at RD is Pesce, signed to his sweetheart deal.
There's not a pressing need to move him for forward help anymore, with Svechnikov coming around and after the acquisition of Niederriter. Sure, they could use a C, but they have Necas knocking at the door and some other pretty decent trade ammunition, outside of Pesce (Buf 2nd (36OA), their own 1st, TVR/Faulk/Fleury or prospects-Gauthier/Mckeown/Roy) to use this summer to bring in another scorer.
