"There's been growing speculation that the Leafs are going to be both buying and selling ahead of this season's deadline, and Jarnkrok, a pending unrestricted free agent, is turning into a prime trade candidate. The 34-year-old Jarnkrok is owed $2.1 million this season and owns a 10-team no-trade clause in the final year of his contract. He's been in and out of the lineup so far this season, producing just six goals and one assist for seven points in 37 appearances."
"If Treliving wants to find a new home for Jarnkrok ahead of the deadline, it's very likely we'll see the Maple Leafs retain up to 50% of his remaining contract, which will help provide an uptick in trade value, and allow for Treliving to secure either a mid-round draft pick, or mid-level prospect in return. The Swedish winger could also be involved in a bigger trade package in an instance where his contract could help even up the finances of a potential deal."
Calle Jarnkrok has fallen out of favour in Toronto and is expected to be moved before the March trade deadline. He is a 34-year-old pending unrestricted free agent owed $2.1 million this season and carries a 10-team no-trade clause. He has produced six goals and one assist for seven points in 37 appearances and has been in and out of the lineup. The Maple Leafs are likely to retain up to 50% of his remaining salary to increase his trade value. Potential returns include a mid-round draft pick or a mid-level prospect. He could also be used in a larger package to balance salaries. Several teams, including New Jersey and Detroit, are considered potential destinations.
