Created by: Habskunlunredstar
Team: 2018-19 Toronto Maple Leafs
Initial Creation Date: Jan. 30, 2019
Published: Jan. 30, 2019
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
With the leafs having to sign some of they core players are you ready to sacrifice Sandin or Liljegren so you can keep the same players for couple years and compete for the CUP?

Even with Zaitsev’s contract out will you be able to sign all of the Matthews, Marner, Kapanen, Johnsson ,Gardiner, hainsey , etc?

So who do you sign who you let go?

Most teams should be interest in Zaitsev with a Sandin or Liljegren coming as well. One non-roster player to able able to keep that roster why not?

Is Bracco ready to replace Kapanen or Johnsson if they’re trade or let go?

If you trade Zaitsev do you trade for a depth rental D to take his spot or ozhiganov will do?

Please enlight me!!

Why would they re-sign Hainsey? Gardiner is a cap casualty and it's not generally a good idea to sign players long term when they're 29.

Calle Rosen is ready to step into a 3rd pair role and Dermott is more than capable of playing the top 4 so yes even without moving Zaitsev they can fit Matthews, Marner, Kap and Johnsson in under the cap the others aren't really much of a loss if they can't fit them (Lindholm, Oz, etc.). Worse comes to worst you can definitely move out Brown without any problems.

I really don't understand this obsession with the dislike and value of Zaitsev. Certainly the Leafs aren't going to trade a young NHLer to get rid of contract and then try to find another RHD to take Zaitsev's place. It really goes back that so many people think the Leafs have five lousy NHL Dman, Reilly being the only good NHLer. Hard to believe a team can be in the top 5 in the NHL standings and have the same defensive record as Cup favourite Tampa with all these lousy Dmen.
Zaitsev plays big minutes on the PK. He plays with Gardiner which can be a challenge at times. So why would the Leafs really want to trade him?

To which I add, all Toronto fans are going to LOVE Zaitsev when he pairs with Jake Muzzin next year.
