A lot of quantity
Not the quality that teams would be looking for to give up the pieces you'd want for this package.

So you are offering a bag of doorknobs and drawer handles
expect a lot of mid round picks (2nd-4th rounders) or other comparable bottom pair dmen and/or bottom 6 forwards

Don’t say eye test when you mean points
LaBanc is 23 years old and he has 30 points in 51 games, why are people acting like he is chopped liver?

Labanc and Fla's high 2nd are decent pieces. Especially for a rental.

I'd want Labanc for sure, but the Oilers don't have any UFA forward rentals available.

If you put your money in a bag of doo-doo, it lessens the value. This is a terrible package.

Rather you call me last moment at the deadline if you are serious about getting rid of them for something. Until then, not interested in those assets. It's the same as the Habs wanting to unload Benn, Hudon, Schlemko, Alzner for the highest returns we can get. Call me last moment at the deadline and if we can make each other happy, we will pull off a deal. If it falls through, so be it.
Pretty sure the 2nd would get you a few phone calls though. What are you looking for? Defenseman or Forward? I'm assuming a forward?

So, Kevin LaBanc, a 23 year old with 40 points last year and 30 points this year, is worth the same as the Habs’ packages of Benn/Huron/Alzner/Schlemko, and less than a 2nd round pick?
I would happily do Braun for Gardiner.

Sorry, where is the negative value piece in this package that lessens the value of a promising young piece like LaBanc?
Maybe it’s Melker Karlsson, who is a mediocre 4th liner making $2M for another season. But even then, I reckon somebody would pay at least a 7th for him - he’s a solid penalty killer on pace for 13 goals who has a history of strong playoff runs.
It’s definitely not Justin Braun, who was once a fantastic top-4 RHD, and who GMs probably still covet.
And it definitely couldn’t be a high second round pick from Florida.
Don't think leafs would do one for one, but the basis is good. gives Leafs address need and add some cap stability for next year

Wait a min...That was too easy ,I dont trust your GM ,we want a 1st if you trade him at the TDL...LOL
Yeah the reactions of “bag of poo” and comparisons to packages that really are that kind of confusing to me.
Maybe the more prudent response is that it may be hard to find value in combining these certain players together and that individually or just one or two pieces may be easier to construct a deal around but then again I thought the OP essentially was saying that could be the case...
Anyways, keep comparing Labanc and Braun to Brendan Smith, Matt Beleskey, Karl Alzner and other actually bad and/or completely overpriced or over the hill players.

It's a weird package: Labanc+2nd should get a pretty decent rental. He's a RFA and looks likely to have a pair of 40 point seasons at age 23. Braun is decent piece as well, but as an aging 4/5 d-man that doesn't bring much offensively he isn't a piece every team will want.
The exception would maybe be Edmonton as Braun is better than Manning, Petrovic, Benning, Russel, and Gravel and Labanc would be their fourth best forward and fits their youth. That said, I am not sure they can afford either player and they don't have a top 6 F SJ would want (outside the three obvious guys, but they're too valuable).
Labanc, Braun, 3rd for 1st, Petrovic (cap reasons)? If I were Edmonton, I'd rather go for a higher echelon player than either for that first. On the flip side, I don't think SJ can flip that pick into definitive upgrades on Labanc and Braun.
