Doubt Jankrok gets traded, the GM, coach and players like him and he can play 1st line to 4th line without hurting the team.

I like him too, but they need to shed 2mill and I think losing him hurts the least. Plus he’s not very effective in bottom 6 role.

Timmins and Lafferty have less value as they are half a million over paid for depth role players and no one says the Leafs must carry 22 man roster, most likely start with a 20 man roster until the Leafs burn up their emergency callup allowances.

20 man roster means Gio and reaves both play every game and I don’t think that would be ideal

That's when you place a player on "day to day" injury and use up your emergency recall players.

That still requires someone to be injured before you can do that

If no one gets injured then who cares how many games they play?
