Only Toronto players would be seen as a cap dump when they're effective making less than $2.5M. When has a team ever paid to get rid of players like Kampf and Jarnkrok on the deals that they're on? They both have positive value, ridiculous trade

Yakov Trenin will be a UFA. He will very likely cost around 2 mill. He is better than both Kampf and Jarnkrok.

Since you can find better in UFA for the same price or cheaper, that makes Kampf and Jarnkrok cap dumps

You listed one player who's career has been much worse than Jarnkroks.

There aren't 32 better players than Kampf and Jarnkrok in free agency who will sign for under $2.5M. Teams will absolutely pay for these two. Heard the same thing about Kapanen for 6 months before they got a first round pick +

Did you not just watch these playoffs:

Toronto: 64.71% (13th)

Teams in the conference finals:
Edmonton: 92.86% (1st)
Florida: 88.64% (2nd)
New York Rangers: 85.71% (T-3rd)
Dallas Stars 74.19% (8th)

So why wouldn't you want to upgrade the PK and instead downgrade it again?

Trenin is also 27 years old. Jarnkrok is 33 and on the decline.

Most teams already HAVE their 4th line sorted.

Kapanen was 23 years old.

Kampf is awful, overpaid, and has 3 years left on his contract. Textbook definition of a salary dump. You don't pay your 4th line C $2.4M to to the same job as someone getting paid 800K could

Jarnkrok is a good player for his price (maybe even "underpaid") but we could use an extra $2.1M and another lineup spot freed up

They can get rid of bad contracts and also improve the PK in the same off-season you know

You can find 4th line vets for 800k on July 1 who can do as much as these two. why pay 3X when you dont have to. I wonder last summer who was bidding against Toronto for Kampf at 2.4M x3

Lafferty's getting at least 1.5 to 2.5 mill
Kampf outproduced Fischier
Nick Cousins will get a pretty penny in FA and the Bunting treatment
Kampf outproduced Stenlund
Kmapf outproduced Nosek
Kampf had similar offensive production to Smith, but way better defensive
Kampf outproduced Janmark
Kampf outproduced Carrick
Don't need to waste my time on Watson, Gagner or Connor Brown
Kampf outproduced Lewis
Aube-Kubel was literally on waivers for the Leafs instead of Kampf
40 year old Perry is not close to a similar defensive player to Kampf
And Chris Tierney?


In conclusion, the only players better than Kampf offensively that you mentioned is Lafferty, maybe Cousins and Smith... But that's not even factoring into Camp's strong suit in his defensive game...

And Jarnkrok's significantly better offensively than all those players... He's 1 year off of scoring 20 and was an injury away from scoring another 20 goal season

So, no... Leafs will keep Kampf and maybe Jarnkrok, especially at this price

I don't blame Dgbibb 10 for making the trade and comment. So many Leaf fans have put into people's head that players that don't match the stats are cap dumps. Jarnkrok is paid exactly what he is, and yeah Kampf might be a little high but not outlandish. No one seems ever writes than Marner is the 9th highest paid player in the league, but he he may not even the 9th best winger.

I agree with this.

Jarnkrok is what he is.

Kampf overpaid by about 600k

600k x 3 years =1.8 mill

Cost to dump 1.8 mill=3rd
