Ask JT to waive his NTC like Price did. Problem solved. Not that any of it matters anyway.

Thing is JT more than likely would've gotten claimed. Price's contract was seen as an anchor ever since it was signed right until this years playoffs and many still see it as an anchor. Tavares while is seen as overpaid he isn't really seen as an anchor like Price was

I don't understand trading for McCann unless you weren't going to protect him. Leafs could have protected 7 forwards and 3 Dman. One of Holl or Dermot would have been selected.
If the Leafs didn't make the trade, Kraken would have picked Kerfoot over Dermot, then the Leafs would have had 3.5m to find a 3C...which shouldn't be difficult.

agreed. I feel like this is a Dubas self-own here. Totally overthought it. Unless he's got something else coming up that we're unaware of, which is possible I guess.

I don't think they're touching that contract TBH. Of course, it is a gamble though.

I don’t even think the go after Holl or Dermott if they went 7-3-1. With some of the selections I could have seen them take Joey Anderson. Then you’d have your D and McCann + Kerfoot 🤷‍♂️
