Mirtle makes the case for selling in the Athletic ...

My hope is that Toronto is in the playoff picture for the next decade or so. I'm already happy with this season. This is the year in which they likely have the least incentive to buy at the deadline given their current situation in the standings. A first-round pick or top prospect for JVR, especially someone who might become a decent 3rd-line center or top-3 defenseman in a couple of years would be very attractive.
If Karlsson is avaliable i would try a Kessel like package + JVR as they can flip him for more future assetsSomething like: 2 1st rounders + a 2nd + JVR for Karlsson
It’s a very very deep draft too. I would be very loathe to part with our first and would much rather try to pick up another.
I just don't think with the team drowning and looking to get a new building, they'll trade their best player to their biggest rival.Melnyk seems very upset that the Leafs regularly embarrass them by selling out their arena and turning games in Ottawa into home games for Toronto.
Coming soon to a Leafs lineup:Johnsson - Willy - Hyman
If Johnsson - Willy - Hyman is a line does that make your Matthews line Brown - Matthews - Kapanen?
