Quoting: draft_em_sign_em_trade_em
So the Leafs can add a $3.5 - $4 million Dman to improve this poor DCorps.
Well no they can do more as if u dont overpay people they got more cap then people think.
Bertuzzi will probs get around what Hyman got on a long term deal especially if he stays
And even with Murray's 2mill buyout Leafs can bring in 2 Dman in the 3-4mill range along with Matthews at 13mill, Nylander 8.8mill, Samsonov 3.5m etc
If they dont want new, Brodie can come back on a cheaper deal than 5mill (2.8m x 2 years)and u bring in someone to play LD or keep an eye on Raifai
In the end the Dcore's fine. Rielly when healthy is good and has had b2b strong playoffs. McCabe has been solid wherever he goes and if Liligren gets his confidence back thats a solid RD. Niemela also has made a good impression and could have a strong showing with a full season in NA hockey and might get a peak come 2023-2024
UFA class for RD is also strong with Roy, Pesce, Demelo, Tanev, Brodie, etc
Did the math and checked they got room to work next offseason
