3-4 bottom 6 Fs (Maybe Carrick or Sherwood or guys like that)
1 G like Wedgewood or Talbot
Free Agent Signings
CREATEDYEARSCAP HIT
Probably, Max Domi
4$4,000,000
Maybe, Mark Giordano
1$800,000
Maybe, Jones or Murray
1$1,150,000
Trades
1.
TOR
    Maybe he is traded before July 1 but I doubt it
    LAK
    1. Samsonov, Ilya
    Additional Details:
    2 year deal at 3M
    2.
    TOR
      If Marchesault bolts and/or Stone is LTIRed, if not Tampa Bay or Utah also may come a knocking
      VGK
      1. Bertuzzi, Tyler
      Additional Details:
      Term over salary = 5 years * 5M
      3.
      TOR
        Top choice ONLY if Toronto does not re-sign him...shorter deal but higher term...would be a great guy to play with Marchand...2 years * 5.75M
        BOS
        1. Domi, Max
        Additional Details:
        This is more hope and obvi imo...he wants to stay for sure...he wants term...value went up higher than this but I think he will be the first to re-sign...5 years * 4M with probably half up front...for me this is team friendly and he could get more from say Boston!
        4.
        TOR
        1. 2026 4th round pick (DAL)
        Additional Details:
        Great fit for this exciting young team!
        NJD
          Sheldon Keefe
          5.
          TOR
          1. Granlund, Mikael
          2. Smith, Givani
          Additional Details:
          Not sure if this is even so there could be a pick swap as well.

          Granlund is a good rental especially if Tavares stays on and they don't have cap to get a 2C. I think sliding Tavares to 3C could be awesome and limit his minutes.

          Smith is a depth guy or who knows, local guy, fans will like him on the Leafs or Marlies.
          SJS
          1. Liljegren, Timothy
          2. Robertson, Nicholas
          Additional Details:
          More likely these guys go separately, these are RFA rights only but I would say Robertson just gets a 1 year QA.

          These are two young guys who can play now for SJS or many other teams.
          6.
          TOR
            Craig Berube
            STL
              This may happen before I publish this post
              7.
              TOR
                Silovs slide up to the backup role for sure or is an easy callup and DeSmith will leave
                VAN
                1. Jones, Martin
                Additional Details:
                2 years * 900k
                8.
                TOR
                  Assuming they lose DIllon and Demelo
                  WPG
                  1. Lyubushkin, Ilya
                  Additional Details:
                  He will want some term, and I think the Leafs let him go and wait for big time July 1 guys...if its the Leafs its a low cap term offer like 4 years * 2M
                  9.
                  TOR
                    Takes over for Dillon and many teams will offer at least a great 1 year deal
                    WPG
                    1. Edmundson, Joel
                    Additional Details:
                    No brainer 3 * 3.5M slight overpay imo
                    10.
                    TOR
                      No risk 1 year offer from either Ottawa, Buffalo or maybe Detroit
                      WPG
                      1. Brodie, TJ
                      Additional Details:
                      1 year * 1.15M
                      11.
                      TOR
                        I am 99.9% certain he does not play elsewhere but if he did I think its Buffalo or Ottawa just as he would be for Toronto...7/8D ready to go in the pressbox
                        WPG
                        1. Giordano, Mark
                        Additional Details:
                        Zero risk guy to have around as a 7/8D, I think he has 1 more year and 20-30 games left in him...99% certain this would be Toronto...and also not shocked if he calls it (an amazing) career
                        12.
                        TOR
                          Or Boston or some team willing to give the guy a chance
                          NSH
                          1. Murray, Matt
                          Additional Details:
                          Maybe Leafs keep him at 1.15M 1 year deal, could clear waivers and be an emergency guy...more likely he leaves for the same deal
                          13.

                            1. Crouse, Lawson
                            2. 2025 2nd round pick (TOR)
                            3. 2026 1st round pick (ARI)

                            Additional Details:
                            I could see Utah or Chicago offering to take these guys on July 1 after bonus is paid...it would half to be a team wanting to make playoffs or make a push for them

                            I doubt any roster assets come back and Crouse is more likely an additional 1st

                              I don't see the Bruins going after Domi, maybe Bertuzzi again depending on his price cause i'm pretty sure they tried to sign him long term last summer but he decided to test the market.

                              "Predictions" I said wink

                              But I also don't agree, I feel like its a good deal for both sides but in any case ya it was too specific of me...and it wasn't to say Robertson or Liljegren have any sort of value...I think its maybe a 2cd and a 3rd.

                              I prolly said Boston to engage Leaf fans but in my comments I do say he is the one guy who will most likely stay. But that said he could form a cool line with Marchand and learn from him.

                              Nope.

                              Not even close.
