Anaheim says no.

Nylander for Manson is close.

The flip side of this trade where we are giving them Gardiner for Rackell isn’t even close, even with the pick and prospect thrown in.

If Nylander is worth Manson, then Rakell is worth a lot more than Gardiner and a low level pick and prospect.

Once again Jake Gardiner is of no value. What I find interesting is how all Leaf players are undervalued and other team's players overvalued. Of course the 2 or 3 times you see Manson play vs. the 82+ times you see Gardiner plays, leads to a belief that Manson is less mistake prone than Gardiner. Anaheim looked so good in the playoffs compared to the Leafs, right. I would keep Gardiner any day, but play him in the right situation. Nylander I would trade, but not for Manson. If Anderson could of stopped a beach ball in game 7, Gardiner would not be thrown under the bus by fair weather Leaf fans. Less we forget the great Morgan Reilly was -4 the 1st game. Reilly I would trade before Gardiner. He is scared and also a major turnover machine.

Agree with some of what you said, i actually think highly of reilly but the rest. Nylander we would have to hands down win the trade. Maybe nylander and our first for dahlin and buffalo 2nd. Probably wouldn't happen but yeah. that'd be my proposal to let buffalo have both nylanders.

I watched a lot of Anaheims playoff games last year, and Manson was unbelievable for them. He's definitely their best defender in my eyes, I think a high end forward for Manson is a good trade for the Leafs. Granted I haven't watched him much since, but it sounds like he's improved vs. last year.

Nylander + Carrick for Manson would be a trade Anaheim would have to consider, imo.
