A big trade seems to to inching closer for the leafs

Leafs trade Bozak soshnikov Leivo

To hurricanes brett pesce

The canes have too much cap space tied to defencemen. Hanifin needs to be signed this offseason to large contract. The canes also must sign Haydn Fleury soon his contract ends after next season.

I'm starting to think leafs can bridge deal Nylander and Marner and will resign JVR.leafs will trade komarov and Bozak

Leafs can re-sign JVR in the $5 to $5.75 MM range for a 5 or 6 years.

Nylander and Marner will be paid for 8 years in the $ 6 MM to $ 6.5 MM range

Mathhews will receive a salary between Eichel and McDavid. Remember he will not win the Ross Trophy this year, and Stamkos is the salary level that Matthews should receive.

Bozak ++ for a defenseman from Carolina I happen to agree, since the team is being sold and fiscal prudence must be maintained.

It is my belief that once this trade is made, that the Leafs should trade Gardiner for a comparable level defenseman that has a contract in the $4 -5 MM dollar range.

Therefore the Leafs two years from now with the salary Cap at $80 MM. The Leafs will be able to be under this cap with a $1.5 to spare.

Don't bring the issues of bonuses as part of the package they are just going to be rolled over, just like it has been done in the past.

Next Year 2018 / 2019 there will a year where the Leafs will have room to pay the bonuses.

A big trade is inching closer? And what, exactly, are you basing that on?

David are you high, Nylander and Marner are key parts of our team, will never be traded.

DMackin, you will be surprised when the numbers work in that area for Marner and Nylander.

We were all surprised when Connor Brown signed for $2.1 MM.

Also when JVR is signed for 5 or 6 years at $5.25 to 5.75 MM, you will be shocked.

Also, agree the Leafs will pickup a defenseman with a Bozak Trade + either Leivo+ Soshnikov+ Dermott or Carrick, for a real #4 Defenseman from Columbus, Anaheim or Carolina.

Than make the big trade of Gardiner + Komorov or Martin for a #2 Defenseman with three or more years signed at $4 MM to $5 MM.

Two Trades will bring in two top four defensemen.
