They are the 2 team's in the biggest mess. Tampa though can move contracts. Not sure Isles can move those horrible 54th line deals

And yes, just all forward groups. That's why the "4 forwards 40 million" is such a stupid argument. If you overpay bottom 6 then it's irrelevant argument.

4 forwards 40 million is a lot and it can limit your options for adding D
But since JT signed, has there been a legit D the Leafs could have went after?

with no JT, they probably have to trade for one anyways

Does it limit the option for anyone close to the Leafs in cap hits for all forwards though?

If teams waste more $ than the Leafs aside from those top line forwards does it matter?

And no, there is no top D that was avilable.

- PatC80

I assume he'll be avilable but only after the season or July 1st. Blues were never moving him

He could still stay with them.

Hell, even one of Kerfoot or Kap might, too.

Would really prefer if Kap stays a Leaf for a long time, though.

the Preds seem to be able to draft top 4 d no problem. thats a problem i would like the Leafs to solve.

But then they have 30 mil in Forsberg, RJ, Turris and Duchene, id rather have the Leafs 4 for 10 mil more given the ages
