4.15 for klingberg??

Ok so leafs have 11F 8D 2G and $443 grand of cap space.

They can operate 10% over cap meaning they can spend 8.35 over cap during summer as ne muzzin cant go on lTIR until season starts. Once he is put on lTIR then leafs would need 3 forwards and have 6.068 of space to sign them.

A murray buyout would cost 2.66 per year for 2 years. So it would save 2 million this year but cost 2.66 next year. If they make a trade and take 1.56(25%) they save 3.125 this year and start fresh next year.

So if they do a retain deal plus muzzin lTIR leafs could have up to 9 million in space to sign 3 forwards and a goalie

I say ask Chicago to once again take their goalie only this time it's Murray for 3.125

Murray costs .675 less than mrazek did and when healthy is a better goalie than what mrazek is when he is healthy

The cheaper price tag alone wouldn't cost leafs a 1st for a 2nd 12 spots later.

Add in Murray is better when both goalies are healthy and I think leafs aren't giving up a better asset just to make deal

They won't get a huge haul but why not just ask for chicagos 2024 5th rounder thus no condition and they just get both 2024 and 2025 5th rounders from Chicago as an extension of the McCabe lafferty trade

Now it's
Murray(1.56 retained 2023/24)
Anderson
Goglolev
2025 1st rd top 10 protected
2026 2nd rd

For
Mccabe(2.00 retained 22/23 23/24) 4 m total
Lafferty
2024 5th
2025 5th

Now the deal is complete

It just makes sense

Murray buyout is less than 700k cap hit this season and 2 million next.

4.5 million for Bunting. He couldn’t stay on leafs top 6 Carolina are going to regret this turkey. Looking more and more that Nylander gets traded.
