Just some tips:
1) Tavares has a no-movement clause, so he won't be moved.
2) Dermott's minimum would be $874,125 as a qualifying offer. You have cap space in this example, so might be best to have him signed as $2-2.5m over the flat cap era (3 years - only goes up to $82.5m in year 3, so expect to see a lot of 3 year "bridge" deals) in this example.
3) Mikheyev likely comes in at $2m+ over the same 2-3 years in flat cap era. The Holl type of contract likely as the precedent.
4) The Labanc idea is good - especially to replace 3RW with Kapanen being moved, just suspect his agent is regretting the 1 year team friendly deal now. He might be looking to try to get paid like he should have on last deal. I would expect him to be $3m+
5) Kapanen likely needs to be moved for NHL ready talent, and not prospects but creative idea. The pressure for Leafs is to win now, despite they are just coming into year 5 of the 5-year Matthews rebuild.
6) Murray for Andersen is likely a wash, but the fact that Murray is an RFA I tihink the Leafs can only make this deal if Murray comes in at or under $4.5m over a minimum of 4 years to get them through post-Covid cap.
