Team: 2021-22 Toronto Maple Leafs

Initial Creation Date: Jul. 27, 2021

Published: Jul. 27, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

After finding out Pius Suter and Nick Ritchie were not given QO's by their respective teams, It gave me a little bit of hope that maybe TOR could turn towards these two guys.

For those who may not know, Pius Suter was Auston Matthews line-mate in Switzerland, where both played for ZSC Lions of the NLA. It was Auston's draft year. Having Pius Suter and Auston Matthews back together could actually be smart. They were teammates before, and it could very well happen again. I would like to see them get him at around 3M, but to keep everyone from going off the wall, and from what I've heard, I got him signed at 5x4.255 avv.

As for Ritchie, this guy is a monster. 6'3, 230 pounds (around there). This guy would bring Toronto something that they dont have in a player; a big frame, big presence, loves getting his nose dirty, and can drive the net (hoping he runs you over while doing it). He wouldn't be a Hyman replacement, but he would certainly be a important piece to a contending squad

NOTE* I also have Casey Cizikas signed, just out of personal preference, as well as acquiring Lawson Crouse from ARI for Dermott and a 4th, with ARI retaining 483,333 of his salary.
