Waiting to hear back on one more FA but very happy with where our team is at.

Eklund-Celebrini-Toffoli
Fiala-Zibanejad-Smith
Hagens-Wennberg-Zetterlund
Kovalenko-Dellandrea-Grundstrom
Goodrow

Mukhammadullin-Ekblad
Orlov-Liljegren
Ferraro-Thompson
Thrun

Askarov
Samsonov

Defense still needs some work but happy to add a couple top 6 forwards to help insulate some of our young guys. We also added a couple great prospects that should help our future in Hagens and Boumedienne.

A bit of a rough retool on the fly after losing Marner after phase one of FA, but happy to avoid trade protection on new contracts, be out of LTIR, and have a small bit of an open cap space to work with if opportunities were to come up in season.

Probably not a situation I want TOR to actually end up in, but if Shabanov wants to be Panarin 2.0, that would be cool.

2025-26 MAPLE LEAFS ROSTER

Cap Hit: $91.205M (includes dead cap from Reaves & Benning)

Knies ($7M) - Matthews ($13.25M) - Nylander ($11.5M)
McMann ($1.35M) - Tavares ($7M) - Geekie ($3.25M)
McBain ($2.7M) - Gourde ($4.25M) - Järnkrok ($2.1M)
Kiviranta ($1.25M) - Kämpf ($2.4M) - Tanev ($2.5M)
Shabanov ($925k)

McCabe ($4.51M) - Tanev ($4.5M)
Rielly ($7.5M) - Kovacevic ($2.8M)
Ekman-Larsson ($3.5M) - Myers ($850k)
Benoit ($1.35M)

Woll ($3.67M)
Stolarz ($2.5M)

Did I go overboard? Probably. But I'm tired of the crappy product this team has put on the ice for 14 years and it was time for radical change. The defense was entirely overhauled and we brought in established veteran forwards to insulate our young guys. Overall, really excited about this group.


J-J Peterka ($5,000,000) - Elias Pettersson ($11,600,000) - Bryan Rust ($5,125,000)
Jack Quinn ($2,750,000) - Tage Thompson ($7,142,857) - Alex Tuch ($4,750,000)
Lawson Crouse ($4,300,000) - Ryan McLeod ($4,000,000) - Zach Benson ($950,000)
Michael Rasmussen ($3,200,000) - Tyson Kozak ($800,000) - Sam Lafferty ($2,000,000)
