10 mill to get Kadri, Gunner, Franson... It'll be snug

And this is why they are playing hardball with Frazer...

Seems a lot of people on here don't realize Leafs are very tight on the cap. There will be no more additions unless Liles is traded.

McDonagh's deal worth $4.7M per for 6 years. Fair number, very fair for Rangers...

Wanna go hunting?

I'm guessing they move him out, and they'll have to eat some salary in order to do so

If they retain say $1-1.5M of his salary he's movable for like a 3rd or something...

I think the Leafs are hoping that guys like Blacker finally take that next step to the NHL. He's about the right age now to be show he can belong. I'll give guys like Rielly, Finn and Percy another year or so, but someone from the farm that isn't Holzer needs to have a strong camp and push the incumbents.

And...I think Franson is as good as gone, as painful as that is for me to say. The two sides aren't talking, there's no doubt Franson will file for arbitration, as he should. I think Nonis is just waiting for the right first line Centre trade to materialize (i.e. Stastny) and will use Franson as a trade chip.

They seem to always have trouble signing Franson.

maybe.. or pay to move him with someone like blacker ... yeah i know that wont be a popular idea

if it goes to arbitration.. and he is awarded less than 3.5mill.. the leafs cannot walk away from it

Yes and rumour has it Franson wants a Shattenkirk/Voynov type deal. Which are both low 4's.

He won't get it but I have seen people on here saying he will only get 3 or less. Will definatley be more than 3. Maybe high 3's if a shorter deal.

I just don't see how Liles contract makes sense now. If he had 1 or 2 years left maybe but Leafs have way to many puck movers in the pipe and not enough stay at home guys. Need to flip with someone.

Yes.

So that would mean 3 years of cap hit at 1.5 or so.
I think we have to wait and see then if we have a prospect ready to take his spot because the replacement will have to be cheap.

We could hunt Glucky

Yes, but then he just gets moved.
- bixll

well.. i doubt gunnar gets as much as everyone expects

hopefully he comes in around 2.5 - 3 tops

Well, when you try to thin out a city's population, they eventually try shooting back.
