Re: Trading Scheifele (or Hughes) for a keeper D?
I would do this deal for Theodore - he's turning into a stud on a good team, and Pietrangelo's presence hasn't hurt his value at all (which says a lot about how good he is). But not sure I would do it for anyone else.
If Barrie leaves Edmonton and doesn't find the right fit, his value could plummet. Too much risk given who you're talking about trading. Chychrun is great, but has more value in a setup with HIT/BLK. I don't know if his offensive output, even with the extra point, will regularly beat Hughes/Scheifele in the future. The only other one I would consider is Rielly. But I'd wait until after the playoffs if you can. I like him as a player running Toronto's top PP, but be hasn't played great for most of the second half of the season, and a bad playoffs could see him run out of town in typical Maple Leafs fashion (ducks for cover).
