Alex Kerfoot As a Valuable Trade Asset<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
In this post, as per the title, I will talk about Alex Kerfoot as a trade asset. In a perfect world, the Maple Leafs would keep Kerfoot. He’s a valuable asset to the team because of his versatility. He’s the kind of player coaches love. He\u2019s been called a Swiss Army Knife<\/a>, in that he’s a player who can play multiple positions. On the Maple Leafs, he sometimes played center on the third line (And when John Tavares was hurt during the 2020-21 postseason, he was the second-line center). <\/p>\n\n\n But most of the time, Kerfoot played as a winger on the second line. He also is a great penalty killer and often intercepts pucks because he can read the passing lanes so well. In addition, he’s played on the Maple Leafs’ second power-play unit. He’s pretty good at a lot of things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are also two intangibles. First, he\u2019s very low-maintenance. He does his job without a lot of drama. Second, he seldom is injured. A third fact is that he’s 28 years old and had his career-best season with 13 goals and 38 assists (for 51 points) in 82 games. The point is that there are a ton of teams who’d want him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In truth, the Maple Leafs are probably one of the teams who’d want him. But, they likely need to utilize his $3.5 million salary-cap space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/oldprof.nhltradetalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/alex-kerfoot.jpeg\")
