if contracts were that easy to move, loui would have been off the team back in 2018

no thanks on bortuzzo we dont need another bottom pairing guy pass

Steen has one year and Bortuzzo is only 1.3 million. Dallas would have about 14.4 million to resign Roope Hintz, Dennis Gurianov, and Radek Faksa, and likely Khudobin or another backup goalie

Yeah, my Loui comparison wasn't great. But Dallas ain't doing it for free, no team will. If they're only getting a 4th, they'll pass. Take a look at Marleau, it cost the Leafs a first to move him, and he only had one year left.

I think you’ll have to pay a little more to move steen, but I also think bozak could be moved rather than bought out, which will save some cap to sign another D man

I just bought him out because I couldn't think of a trade

Lmao. You want Dallas to help you with your cap problem?? That’s hilarious. Getting rid of one year of Marleau costed a first round pick. You think you’re getting rid of Steen for a 4th to a 6th swap to a division rival? L M A O

Bortuzzo isn't a fit for the Leafs. That being said, he and his contract could be moved easily. Bozak has value as his salary is less than his cap hit. Just need to find a contender that has $2.5m in cap sapce and a middle partner that can retain half the cap hit for value. Ie. Could STL send Bozak to a team with pick for a minor leaguer, OTT retains $2.5m cap ($1.75m in actually salary) and flip him for more picks + middle of the road prospect. Example - Bozak + 3rd to OTT for Mike Carcone; OTT then flips Bozak (1/2 retained) for a 4th & Bracco.

Buffalo needs a 2C they could be interested
