40mil for 4 FWDs has failed

Created by: MatthewsFan
Team: 2021-22 Toronto Maple Leafs
Initial Creation Date: Jun. 1, 2021
Published: Jun. 1, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
You can’t have over 40mil dollars tied up to 4 players. It’s so clear that Dubas made a mistake by signing Tavares and not bridging Marner. It’s brutal but Marner has to go, this team needs cap space to build a better Dcore and add some more FWD depth.

Even last year when this team had a healthy fwd group, probably a better bottom 6, still couldn’t score. If Matthews, Marner, Tavares, Nylander are not scoring this team will never go far.

The Dubas plan to have 4 FWDs making over 40mil dollars has failed. Plain and simple. He did everything you could to change this group, new coach, new goalie, new RD, vet leadership, and still a first round exit. There is the real problem.

Literally only Leaf's fans have posted that Kings trade. All of us Kings fans have consistently said it's nowhere near close. Over. And over.

Kings decline.

He's owed $8.6M per year in real dollars over the next 4 years with a cap hit of $10.9MM. Teams like CLB can totally take him

We're not trading long-term assets with top-6 forward potential for one year of Morgan Rielly. And by the way, Clague is such a bright prospect that we're considering protecting him as a fourth defenseman instead of protecting 7 forwards.

It really baffles me that the kings aren’t giving this kid a chance! Like wtf?? Maatta??? I’d much rather see clague in the lineup

Theoretically, they could but would they want to take it on?
