Created by: OB16

Team: 2023-24 Toronto Maple Leafs

Initial Creation Date: Feb. 2, 2024

Published: Feb. 2, 2024

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

If JT is now a 60 point player, would you rather pay him 11m next year or 3.5m not to play (hypothetically a 6m 2C next year would make 9.5m by adding the JT retention for 1 season) ? Fill out 2C in the off-season, find a better fit for a playoff run that can slide down to 3C next year (Laughton or Jenner type player??).

Would JT waive for a great chance at a cup in Colorado? Would leafs benefit? Would Colorado be willing to pay JT roughly 4M to be a 2C?

I have a hard time seeing JT waiving for a chance at a Cup despite playing for a team that has a chance at winning a Cup

Flyers accept that deal. I'm kind of stunned that you are swapping Taveres for Laughton.

I don’t think Tavares would waive for the avs. I also don’t see why the leafs would want that unless we sent Bo there way

Toronto isn't just going to be able to find a 2C replacement so easily, but even if they did that player will cost 8-9M, so with the retention on JT that would be effectively paying them 11.5-12.5M. That said player might get 10 or 20 more points or the similar to JT, so it's not worth it.

He is still a good player, but his lack of speed would be a concern

Which is, needless to say, not going to happen for one year and spare change of an aging Tavares, even with that much retention. Again, not a fit and not worth the price.

Still haven't seen a proposal for Byram that fits the Avs needs and cap situation. Probably because that doesn't exist.
