Colorado is a perfect team to do it. They have a loaded prospect pool and should be a playoff team for the next 4 years. 4 picks in the 20 range are well worth Mitch Marner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Agostino, for example could come off and that would add another $700K for a total of $9.8M available. We should trade Tanev (50% retained) for Ceci and a 3rd or something. Saves them over a couple million more to get them around 12 million in cap space to lock up Marner. They will be in tough to re-sign Ceci anyway after this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be exciting to see if they could do it. They have Horton on LTIR which saves them over 5 million. And they will need to send down a forward, so they really almost have about 10 million in space. They really only need to move out a couple million more if they can lock him up before an offer sheet is signed and get him around 11.5-12 million. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing is giving a player 12.5 million sets a bar for the rest of the players, they will have to resign a lot of good young players in the near future. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKSR Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) No team will operate with $0 cap space as the season starts. If the Leafs were to match 12.5M, they would likely have to clear 4M+ in cap space (likely 5M+ to be safe) to have any kind of wiggle room throughout the season. 3.8 + 5.3 = 9.1 - 12.5 = -3.4M Nylander would have to go for pennies on the dollar. Goldobin for Nylander... waddya say Dumbass..err... Dubas? Edited July 5, 2019 by HKSR 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be a top 8 team for many years..They will miss Barries offence .. Cale Makar makes losing Barrie more palatable I think. They are certainly going to be a power house. Though their goaltending is their next position to shore up, beyond 1 year of Lehner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.Am.Ironman Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 My mistake.. not sure why I thought he went to the Avs. Even so, Grubauer has yet to show he can be the guy. Time will tell. It may be a case where he is 'good enough' as they probably have a good enough offence to compensate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralph. Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Regarding the Horton thing — Does he stay on LTIR throughout the off-season (thus giving the Leafs their relief) or does he have to be moved back to it at the start of the(/every) season again? I thought I remembered us having to work around a logistical issue with this a few years ago: a player that was starting the season injured, but LTIR didn't start until the regular season started and we had to have a replacement technically in the AHL until the injured player was placed on LTIR and his replacement brought up, to stay compliant. I'm pondering that in a similar situation, the Leafs wouldn't be able to effectively utilize Horton's LTIR relief on Marner until the season starts and that overage allowance disappears. Where the cap nerds at? I'm sure I remember a discussion around this sort of thing but it's been a while. Nobody seems to have mentioned this yet, so I'm expecting to be mistaken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PuckFather Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 We should start a GoFundMe account to help that team $crew the Leafs. I'll donate $100.00 as there's no better cause than this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Blight Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Anyone remember these comments from Dubas last year after signing Tavares on July 1st, 2018? Yup, no problem at all........ People have been calculating how you can fit all of these young players when you have to re-sign some of these young guys under the cap. When you look at the situation, do you feel this signing gives you some flexibility to make some moves down the road if you have to, with all of the plethora of talent up front? Dubas: Certainly, this year, we still have a healthy amount of cap space. Eventually, our younger players, as they continue to develop and progress, they are going to want to be paid what the market bears for them and that is no problem on our end. We are well situated to handle that when it comes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB5 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Ah' poor Dumbass So if Marner leaves then will the Toronto sports networks be saying that he really wasn't that good, he was floating on the coat tails of Matthews, Nylander is a better player anyway.....etc? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sedinery33 Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 Any team can make an offer, Marner actually has to sign it. Do you think he really wants to play for the Islanders or Columbus? Gotta love the media this time of year... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
