In for a Gino in for a Johnny

Created by: Beggars_be_Leaf
Team: 2022-23 Toronto Maple Leafs
Initial Creation Date: Jul. 13, 2022
Published: Jul. 13, 2022
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
No point for the Pens to sign Gino and Rakell and have a sputtering Zucker alongside. They go all in for Johnny hockey, so badly need to move out salary before noon.

Marino is the cost to take on half of Zucker’s salary, and in return the Pens get a better third line LW and a worse RD, both at a price that can still give them a chance to fit in the bill for Gaudreau. They probably still need to move out some more salary to get a full roster, maybe McGinn and Blueger get replaced by cheaper UFAs.

Leafs need to trim wages to fit in Marino so send Kerfoot to Calgary, the poor man’s Gaudreau.

The Leafs shore up their second pairing defence to somewhat make up for the holes in Matt Murray’s performance, and as a bonus corner the market on Nylanders.

Leafs definately say no to trading for Alexander Nylander who is too soft of a player.

Too soft for Dubas? I don’t think there is such a thing. Besides, Kyle loves a good reclamation project.

Of all the things wrong with this, the statement that kerfoot is a poor man’s gaudreau is the one that is the worst.

Kevin fiala is a poor man’s gaudreau. Jesper bratt is a poor man’s fiala. Tuevo teravainen is a poor man’s bratt. Andre burakovsky is a poor man’s teravainen. Ondrej palat is a poor man’s burakovsky. And finally alex kerfoot is a poor man’s palat. Kerfoot is about 6 rungs of poor man below gaudreau. The fact that you are even comparing kerfoot to gaudreau is laughable. He put up like 40% of the points gaudreau put up. Please stop creating false narratives.

Well, Kerfoot cost about $68K per point last year. Johnny hockey, if he gets 115 again next year, at about $10M, will work out to about $87K per point. Kerfoot got his numbers playing second and third line minutes, with very little power play time. So I don’t mind comparing Gaudreau to Kerf, even if he (Gaudreau) is a much less efficient use of cap space.
