No Cups

I was talking with a friend last night and we were posing 'crazy' trade scenarios. If Gretz can be traded... Pronger can come to Edm for a year and demand a trade.. Anybody can go at any time.

Here's the take for TO.

What will it take to push TO over the top? I think it's actually the trade of Austin Matthews.
If TO was to trade Matthews to... Winnipeg for Connor Hellebuyck and Kyle Connor (some other pieces would have to be shuffled for cap reasons, but these are the main parts), I think this would be a move that puts TO over the top and into the top tier cup favorites.

TO has scoring outside of Matthews, and gets some of his scoring replaced with Connor, but finally gets the true bonafide #1 starter that can carry them into a cup.

Winnipeg gets what they had hoped to have all those years ago from bringing in Laine. A true star goal scoring centerpiece to build around.

Do you think either side is truly 'losing' that trade? Would you do it if you were TO? Would you do it if you were Winnipeg? Why or why not?
