You sold pretty low on Zaitsev. You can at least get neutral value for him that's not a pick.
You've overspent on Kuemper. He's a backup goalie. Those can be had cheap and I don't see the logic in using Kadri as a sweetener to take on Marleau's contract, especially if Toronto retains on Marleau.
Nylander trade isn't bad value wise. I don't think teams would give Toronto that right now for him, but it's worth a shot. Smith would be a decent 3C so I like the deal from Toronto's side. Even though Nylander will most likely turn things around next season.
Kapanen and Johnsson are likely to take smaller bridge deals. Kapanen likely 2-3 years around $3M and I can see Johnsson going as high as 4 years but still no higher than $3.5M. They both have only 1 year in the league and nothing justifies $4M for them. All of their comparables are right around 3 years and $2.5M per year. So even $3M is a slight overpayment. Save on them while you can and spend later when they price themselves
