Description

Sets us up in 2 years with a ton o draft picks... and loads of cap space for when we are actually ready to invest in some premium UFA's for 2022 season. Aguably... with Fleury, Johnson, Kerfoot and defensive center in sutter we are already a better team that the kids can learn from. Plenty of (useful) guys like Fillipula to be traded for 5-7th rounders to reduce numbers too.

lol, Leafs arnt paying you picks to take on Kerfoot and Holl. They just moved Johnsson who was a very comparable contract to Kerfoot, if anything Kerfoot is more valuable as he plays center too, without having to give up anything.

Maybe 1 deal like this but not 3 or 4. I dont think they're gonna spend the cap in such an uncertain time.

Kerfoot and Holl both pretty much overpaid and overvalued by Leafs nation. It costs picks to move contracts like these.

agreed... but would be nice to have some extra high end picks from the cap strapped teams.

Except you ignored the example I provided of a contract similar to Kerfoots but for a less valuable player in Johnsson being moved and even with an asset coming back. Clearly your opinion of what it costs to move contracts like these is wrong or at the very least without evidence. And when I can show with an example of how wrong you are on needing to pay to move a contract like Kerfoots, you can imagine how wrong you are in needing a 1st round pick to move them.
