Description
It won't happen... but at one point it sounded like the Leafs could add Stamkos, Radulov, Vesey AND Matthews this offseason, which would be one of the greatest offseason hauls ever.

Following this through I've added D and G, and made some pretty dramatic cap shifting moves in an attempt to imagine the Leafs as a playoff team as soon as next season.

Whilst I don't think anything I've done is totally insane, the chances of anything like this happening are low, but what a rapid rebuild it would be.

    Other than the edmonton trade not bad. saying that I could see bozak being traded as soon as the draft. Also the rumour is Radulov wants 7.5 per so though you may have put a fair cap hit for his talent he will hold out for more and I read they are kicking the tires on resigning Parenteau. But other than that if the rest of the offseason goes this well it would be a great few months.

    After the Kovalchuk? experience in New Jersey, Lou wanted want to waste time and money on a guy who may bolt to Russia again such as Radulov. If a team signs him and he flees to Russian, is the team on the cap hook like Datysuk?
    Don't think you can buyout guys on LTIR and apparently Lupul is going to start the season there. Michalek has a total NMC, but the Edmonton trade wouldn't happen anyway.

    Not a bad outlook...few things tho.

    1. Edmonton won't trade out of #4 unless they are getting a young, top 4 d-man in return. I think they'll probably trade down a couple spots with a team who wants Tkachuk.
    2. I personally would stay away from Radulov. Don't think he's worth the cost or the headache
    3. If Stamkos hits UFA, his salary will inch closer to $11m. At $9.1 he'll reup in Tampa
    4. I think Goligoski will get closer to $6m too. Dallas won't be able to sign him, Demers and Russell but I think Alex will be their priority. I'd be surprised to see the Leafs sign a
    d-man over 30yrs old for more than 2yrs.
    5. By passing on Radulov, you likely have enough cap room to give Stamkos and a D-man to the appropriate contracts needed. Bozak, Michalek and Bernier call all likely be
    dealt out as long as the leafs don't expect much in return and are willing to eat some salary
