If the Sharks take back two cap dumps, why are they also retaining on Kahkonen for so little? Ferraro on his own should return a 1st, so Kahkonen half retained gets Niemala and two cap dumps? Feels a little light, that might just be me though

I think Kaapos value is high - but EF did make a great point that teams are hesitant to trade for Kaapo as he’s never led a cup run/ playoff run.

Similar to Adin Hill - the goalie may be there - but there’s always a worry on the value you want to give.

I’d like more but I don’t think leaf’s fans can cry over this value. And I wouldn’t either as a Sharks fan - I like Topi and we collect a first.

1. Sammy is most likely staying... Same with Reaves...

2. Leafs are most likely making cheap upgrade trades to try and wake this team up

3. Niemela may be on the move as there's not a lot of space for him

Don’t see any reason Tree should want to keep Reaves or Sammy if he’s upgrading the team with the financials not changing.

Without the retention on Kahkonen, I'd agree, but he's been a starting caliber goalie and the Sharks are using their final retention spot on him for basically only Niemala, as well as taking back two cap dumps? That's what stumped me
