Created by: Nick_Leafs3444

Team: 2021-22 Toronto Maple Leafs

Initial Creation Date: Jul. 29, 2021

Published: Jul. 29, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Player options (top-6 LW) include:

Free agency: Ritchie, Donato, Kase, Saad & Tatar

Trade: DeBrusk, Rakell, Dvorak

Any other potential targets?

My thoughts on signings so far:

Mrazek: I like him. He can be a great tandem partner with Jack, Fingers crossed he stays healthy!

Kampf: I questioned it heavily at first, but this does allow Keefe to use Kerfoot on the wing as we all know he likes to do or even in the top 6. Also, Kampf is great on the faceoff and adds a much needed asset on the PK. Our penalty kill looks great in my opinion. He also has a lot of experience playing against the opponents' top 6.

Bunting: Very low-risk, potential mid-to-high award. (similar to Verhaege last season with Florida). I really like this addition and if he can get playing time with the big 4, who knows.

Biega/Dhalstrom/Gabriel/Amadio: these additions are more for the Marlies and organizational depth.

Big fan of Kase for under a million (can be buried) as a gamble. I think Tatar is the best fit for what's available in FA

Like the Mrazek deal. Like the Kampf pickup. Not sure what everyone was expecting after Dubas' presser a little while ago. No big changes coming. It would be nice to add a middle 6 LW, but I'm really hoping Robertson is ready for the top 6 and just put Engvall on the 4th line. If not, it may be worth moving him. We don't have a very big window anymore. Just my opinion.

Also interesting to see Saad hasn't signed anywhere yet.
