Description
Would love to have Nylander on Leafs but someone has to leave for cap reasons. I've signed Kapanen long term, so why don't go have a continued RFA drama. Matthews signs at discount for UFA freedom ASAP. Trading Nylander allows about 3m for an incoming player. Think Nylander might have to be traded for little cap in return or futures. HIs actually $$$$ payout to his new team is actually just 6.14m for 2018/19 and four more years which makes him. an attractive acquisition.
Instead of Nylander, maybe Kadri gets traded and Nylander slides to centre.

Prior to the season I was roasted for suggesting that Kapanen would surprise people. He had only scored 9 goals in 58 games or something like that. Plays a few games with Matthews and now people are giving him almost 5 million. The "Nylander isn't worth his contract" sentiment is ridiculous, he's a top player on many teams. Giving Kap this kind of contract and the Leafs are on the path to cap hell forever. Give Kap a 1 year show me deal before giving him this kind of money. How will he produce lower in the lineup? We don't know this yet.

I can't see Kapanen getting more than 4 million next contract. Yes, he's been producing very well with Matthews however he's not 2 million dollars less than Nylander. I see him signing in and around the 3.5 to 3.7 million dollar contract.

I think TML will stick with "core 4", all the others will become expendables now...so either they will be "forced" to accept bridge deals or get shiped.....

I think it will be Kadri next for RHD, i simulated it many times but was always flaked with "our D is fine as it is and Kadri will stay Leaf for life". Unfortunatelly / fortunatelly the dark ages are over ( the years i call from 2005 when last good draft pick was made except 2009 ), romantic feelings are overriden by Cap era and even if Kadri was here thru all the bad times, its time to move on regarding him. I like the guy a lot, dont get me wrong but it turned into bussines now, no place for feelings...

Marleau last year of contract is problem for the TML next year, but i think he can step in into 10 minutes 3rd line C shoes if Kadri gets traded.

I agree completely with this. Id only add that its a core of 5 maybe 6 at this point. Jt, Mitch, Matthews, Nylander, Mo and Andersen. Everyone else is unfortunately expendable if they don't fit the Cap structure.

I don't think thats a judgement on the other players - I'm sure management wants to keep the whole team together for a long time - it just means that they're complimentary players to the core. And this isn't unique to the leafs. Calgary, Winnipeg, Colorado and more all have tough choices to make in the coming year. As the elite take more of the cap pie, the middle class is going to get squeezed. Same as it ever was...

Hope this is a joke... giving more term to kappy than mathews? Too much term to kappy and too much money to ozhiganov maybe trade one of Rosen/ Borgman there is your 3m right there. If mathews wants more money you start with brown leaving not nylander.

Even at more outrageous contracts than you have here I was able to keep the core together. See my “Dubas listens to outrageous bruins fans” agm.
