Dream the dream. Bjugstad is going no where. Neither is Barkov or Ekblad. I understand the price on Kessel is high, but Dale isn't a moron. Those three players you build around. If you asked Bjugstad or Kessel -- pick one, I don't know of many who would take Kessel given the salaries and based on what Bjugstad has done.

Yup, I can't see Tallon giving up those guys or this year's 1st (potential lottery pick).
I think a package including something like Huberdeau, kulikov, 1or 2 picks/prospects and a salary dump is the very most the leafs could expect.
