Back in the day, if you were a fan of the Giants or Cowboys and you went to a game in Philadelphia wearing your team's apparel you were honestly 100% for real risking your personal safety. I don't know how it is nowadays because a lot of fans have likely been priced out.
Philadelphia has some expensive and very nice areas, but the bad parts of Philly are REALLY, and I mean REALLY, bad.
The underlying problem is the Leafs have a cap crunch. If they can't pay Campbell how are they going to pay a better goalie? I would love to have to a top-notch genuine starter but that guy is going to either cost more than the Leafs can pay due to the cap, or if it's a trade for someone making less, it will likely cost a lot in assets. Of course, you can also clear cap space, which also costs assets.
This makes the Mrazek signing so frustrating because it looked bad when it happened and it looks worse now. The money would give us the flexibility to keep Campbell if desired or go after a better goalie. If we spend a ton on a goalie then you know some important pieces are heading out the door to make room.

He's not good enough when it matters most. Sign him cheap or let him walk.
ya, the value we're looking for is the cap space. fair value for a backup goalie is only a mid round pick anyway.

Folks, I don't know why anyone here is surprised that Soupy's agent wants to do what pretty much *every* other agent did with Dubas? take him to the cleaners.... is he worth more than 4m per? Probably not, but we don't have anyone better, that's all the leverage they need.
but we can get somebody better
Fluery, Kempeur, Gibson, Varlamov, Lehner Blackwood are all either going to be on the market or likely to be on the market, I'm a little concerned about Blackwood due to his health but the rest are clear upgrades.

There’s no cap he’ll, that’s just all he’s worth
The question is, do we have the cap space? Getting rid of Mrazek may sound like the optimal move, but a good goalie will eat up that entire cap space and then some and we haven't even started talking about all the other players we need to resign.
Let's face it, this team was the Leafs best chance to win (well, okay, last year was good, too, but this team is better overall).

Probably 4 to 5 mil for 5 years. I told you guys Toronto players tend to highball offers because they know the Leafs will deal (or at least their agents instruct them so). If they don't, no biggie, they can still get a decent contract elsewhere.
all of them would be legit upgrades, except maybe Blackwood except maybe Blackwood due to health but if he's healthy he's a legit upgrade too
Campbell isn't hard to upgrade on because he's not a starter
While i agree. I am not a Campbell fan at all. But fleuary and Gibson are done
Better off to the trade route

I agree I don’t think it’s cap hell but the Leafs are in cap juggling let’s say. It’s not a simple as signing a player or two and then trading one. There looks to be multiple trades and multiple signings to fill out this roster. Goalie having the biggest glare to fix.

Going into his fifth year and Dubas is still trying to piece together a team because of his mismanagement of resources.

Dubas will fix his mistakes by giving away draft picks imo.

And Shanahan will let him cause he has gone soft and he is A-Ok with the soft core this team has.

It’s like fantasy football you throw a low ball offer and maybe they bite. We’ve gotten those Robert Tonyan and Mike Davis for Derick Henry trade offers

Thei fates are apparently tied together, Shanahan had his chance to not go down with Dubas, but now if one goes it’ll be both imo.

No More Excuses #MarnerOut
A Varlamov-Georgiev tandem next season would be pretty respectable and both goalies are rumoured to be on the move this summer. Dubas could probably sweeten the pot to get Lou to retain even though both teams are competitive, like when the Leafs got the Avs to retain 50% on Barrie.
Georgiev's QO is 2.65M and rumour is Rags are looking to move him before the QO tender deadline because they don't want to QO him. Varlamov at 50% retained would be 2.5M. Leafs could run a 5M tandem next season and get more creative with spending elsewhere, assuming they are also able to dump Mrazek.
