Description

Leafs fans keep dumping two or three depth players to WSH for picks.

WSH is up against the cap with just 21 players, when healthy. Here's how to dump those players and get those picks. Kempny is given no trade value here, because he's rusty after a year off, and with a year left on his deal, there is no guarantee he gets back to playing like he can. But at the top of his game, he can play top pair and win a Cup, so if he gets back this year, Toronto massively wins this trade.

And if not, they clear a little bit of cap space/roster space and get some late picks for guys they would end up waiving to bring up young guys, otherwise.

im confused as to why washington wants dermott/mikheyev though. Dermott i could see for age but he hasnt really proven hes worth trading for, all of washingtons wingers are equal to or better than mikheyev. i dont see washington as a trade partner where you get the potentially better player and late round draft capital. Just dont see that scenario playing out.

The cap doesn't work for Toronto here, there is no taxi squad this year

31-year-old is coming off several major injuries, including a torn Achilles’ tendon (2020) and a medial collateral ligament sprain (2021). Kempny has looked terrible, no thanks

Still an impractical 21 man roster. Trading two NHLers for an Kempy who is costs the Leafs 1.375 cap in the minors is like a big loss for the Leafs. Signing a e UFA RHD making 1m doesn't seem NHL good.
Leafs can keep Dermot and trade Mikheyev and be cap compliant.
