Leafs Offseason Could Be Decent After All

There is no way the Blues retain that much for that long.

Not gonna lie, only trade I love is the Kampf for Larsson trade. Though I like alot of the Free Agency moves, especially DeSmith and Monahan

What an absolute waste of assets all over the place.

I don't see any team, especially a small-market team like St. Louis, taking on Marner's $10.9 million cap hit and then retaining salary on top of that. Moreover, I don't see St. Louis trading Parayko or Binnington at all unless Marner comes with an acceptable extension, which is completely speculative and unforeseeable.

Marner for Saros plus, on the other hand, has some possibilities.

Larsson is a top-4 RD, as you have him here. Kampf is a bottom-6 depth player, so his value, even with the two thirds, is not comparable.

Domi, Monahan and Blueger would all be excellent signings. You might also consider re-signing Edmundson or even Lyubushkin to replace Timmins.

Overall, nice work for an initial effort. Most of ours were far less sound.

This can improve by simply removing the Blues trade.

It wouldn't happen even without any retention. Then adding retention, there simply is nothing of value that pays for all of the retention

If we ship off Binner, we wouldn't need Woll back since we have Hofer and Zherenko already, or can sign a vet to mentor. Then Marner is not a fit in STL.
