Kypreos: NHL GM “willing to listen” to trade offers concerning his first-liner!

According to Nick Kypreos, one of the best insider in the business, the Toronto Maple Leafs are "willing to listen" to trade offers concerning their forward James Van Riemsdyk.

From Sportsnet: 

“The name JVR has been out there the last little while,” said Nick Kypreos on the Headlines segment Saturday. “I can tell you there’s nothing going on in terms of hard offers but teams are asking about him and the Leafs are willing to listen. They know that he wants a long-term deal and that’s a deal that can start negotiations as early as July. But they will hold him at a premium, much like [Phil] Kessel, they think that rate of return could be out there for JVR.”

If the Leafs are really looking for the same kind of package, here's what it would cost to acquire James Van Riemsdyk : a first-round prospect defenseman, a first-round prospect forward and a first-round pick for the upcoming draft.
