Getting Doughty out of LA isn't a crazy idea considering he has already stated he would consider moving on once his contract ends in 2019 if the team isn't where he would like it to be. LA is showing their age up front and Toronto has enough pieces to make a deal happen but the question is at what cost. The leafs would have to move a lot of forward depth for a single defensemen that they would have a great chance at taking in free agency for nothing. I would sooner see the Leafs target another stud D-man that would cost less in a trade and sign Doughty in 2019.

For starters, Panarin is not an upgrade over Nylander. Your talking about a guy who had a great season last year playing along side Kane and between the two had great chemistry that made the duel work so well. That is also what you have with Nylander playing with Matthews and you don't mess with that. As for JVR for Jones, Jones is a dime a dozen physical defensemen who is not worth a 6'3 soft hands goal scorer and a draft pick. Plus, a trade needs to make sense to both teams for a trade like that to happen and this trade makes sense for no one.
