All teams have been told to plan on the salary cap staying static. Assuming otherwise would be absolutely foolish.
The Leafs did not just go through a negotiation and re-signing with Muzzin to send him packing. Terrible optics and not a good business practice.
The D Core, as you have it here is not good enough. Not even close actually. Morgan Rielly has more NHL games under his belt at 26 years old than ALL OF THE REST OF THE D CORE COMBINED. Think about that for a minute.
Up front is soft, soft, soft.
This has missing the playoffs entirely or first round exit written all over it.
Hard no from me. Pass.
