Jeremy Bracco should never be traded. Watching this guy play is awesome and he would be a great linemate for Matthews, on the Leafs and on Team USA. To me, we will have our big 3 in Matthews, Marner, and Nylander, but I think Bracco will make the list as the big 4. If Bracco can become a LW, that would be perfect for a line of:

Bracco-Matthews-Kapanen

Even if he does not got LW, he will still be a super dominant and elite RW.
Now for our other prospects, we could have a future lijeup of:

Bracco-Matthews-Kapanen
Grundstrom-Nylander-Marner
Brown-Kadri-Soshnikov
Martin-Gauthier-Hyman/Korshkov

Then we still have Leivo, Tinashov, Leipsic, Rychel, Johnson to all trade away or do whatever with.

As for Defense, we have Dermott, Nielsen, Borgman, Rosen, and Greenway which are all LHD, and for LHD we have Rielly and Gardiner so these are all trade assets (Nielsen is our best d prospect and should be kept.)

Lastly, Joseph Woll is our future starting goaltender after Andersen. Woll will take time to develop but he already shows flashes of brilliance, and he was only a 3rd round pick.

Brown is RW, Hyman is a LW, Grundstrom is a LW,

Try this line
Grundstrom-Matthews- Kapenen
Leivo- Nylander- Marner
Hyman- Kadri- Brown (great defensive line with huge offensive potential)
Martin- Gauthier- Bracco (till he proves himself)

I believe that a number of young forward prospects- Rychel, Leipsic, Soshnikov and Carrick or Dermott will be traded for Methot and Dumba and 2018.

It's because of the already great, young talent at RW and that he is young and talented as well that you can and should trade him for other needs.

Leivo will be a top 6 LW if/ when the Leafs trade JVR or Komarov, that's why they protected him.

Brown could realistically play LW too and have success on that line, Hyman the same. Not a big fan of Leivo, I do not see him becoming more than a 3rd liner, Soshnikov is better. To start his career, playing with Kadri would be a pretty good move for Bracco. We have no use for Methot although he is good, Dumba on the other hand I am a fan of.

Sorry, how did you come to the conclusion that "Brown could realistically play LW", has he played there before? Bracco is good, but the Leafs have a lot of RW talent, and very good talent. All 3 of the RW players scored 20+ goals last season (Marner 19 goals, but 61 points) .

IMO - Trade Bracco while is value is high (in your case super high) and the Leafs should be able to land a very high quality RHD.

If we trade Bracco to any team we will regret it in a few years, he is not going anywhere management love him and would rather keep him in a few years and trade Brown if it came to too many RW. Bracco is our up amd coming Gaudreau.

Big willy

There is no garentee that Bracco will make the NHL, we already have so many talented forward prospects, you're acting like Bracco is our franchise player? Regret trading him? Oh please, we have Matthews Nylander Marner Kapanen and so many more. I'll forget who Bracco is if I saw the list of better players. And Bracco isn't the "up and coming" Gaudreau, That's Marner who is going to be bette Than Gaudreau.
