Murray a third and a 7th with only 25% retained. I'm at a real loss here.

I'm not sure about anyone else, but I'm not sure how Matt Murray at 4.68 is what Dubas wanted.

If Soup was asking 5x5 and Murray is 2 years at 4.68, I still resign Soup.

This could end up being a massive failure on Dubas' part. He just got rid of Mrazek (played 12 games for the canes) for a guy that played 20 games last year. Deja Vu anyone?

If the leafs just paid a first to rid themselves of mrazek that should of beeen the standard for dubas I think Dorian just fleeced dubas they just cleared 4.68 mil and all it cost was a third next year and a 7th the year after I hope this works but I don’t feel great about this one.

The leafs need a backup that can play 30-40 games next year and Idk if there’s one out there.

It would seem Dubas poorly played this negotiation by giving an early low-ball offer.

It’s done so what are next steps other than daily prayers that Murray gets back to his Penguin level.

I still strongly believe Muzzin is a big part of the solution. Get whatever you can in return to free up space.

There are many interesting UFAs now that teams have decide on who to qualify.

Panning this gold is better than the draft.

I think there are many good choices and the teams who have space will get the gold.

@Rsears that's basically what I'm thinking as well. Dubas thought Soup would accept a low-ball offer, EDM is trying to make the Edmonton Maple Leafs with everyone Dubas wants to low-ball.

Without Muzzin I just don't see how the D-corps shapes out.

Rielly-?
Sandin-Brodie
Gio-Lili

That D-corps may actually work, if they weren't in front of Matt Murray.

I also think everyone has forgotten, boosh isn't here anymore. He needs to be replaced unless Holl is going to be a top 4 defenseman which spells trouble.
