Description
With the way the Leafs are currently set up, it looks like they will only have enough cap space to run a 20 man roster during the regular season. I believe that’s what they went with in 2019/20 and though the results weren’t very good, I feel it was rather due to most of the players in the starting lineup either underperforming or simply being bad.

Um...with the way the Leafs are currently set up they have cap space to run a 21 man roster. In 19-20, they ran a 22 man roster to start and never went lower than that due to LTIR injuries.

Fair enough. I don't see much of a difference between a 20 man roster and 21 man roster cuz IMO you need both a spare forward and defenceman to be legit.

The difference is calling up one player to give Spezza, Thornton, Bogo (or anyone) a night off on a b2b becomes impossible with a 20 man roster. It's at least possible to give a guy a night off with a 21 man roster.

Leafs have never carried less than a 22 man roster. So even 21 will become tricky when injuries or illnesses crop up.
