Toronto Trades Lupul
Dallas Trades Lethonen and a Conditional 6th

If Lupul plays 45 games or more Tor gets the 6th and if not its essentially Lupul for Lethonen.

How long of a contract does he have?

Lupul has 2 years left 5.25 per year
Lehtonen has 2 years left 5.9 per year

So, the Leafs might better off going after Niemi instead, because he is cheaper and is more of a backup goalie instead of Lehtonen.

Niemi has 2 years left at 4.5 per year.

This is only a deal that goes last minute of dealing before the expansion draft when no other team wants Niemi or Lehtonen.

The argument against trading now is that the Stars could trade either goalie to a contender and receive much better picks plus the entire cap decrease.

The Stars have said they are perfectly fine going with both this season so don't expect a deal until the deadline at the earliest. Even then, they might keep both and expose one in the expansion draft.
