Confirmed with Link: Leafs sign Jarnkrok to a 4 year 2.1M AAV contract

[Not My Tempo]

I think Muzzin is gonna be the odd man out. Opens up 5+M in cap space for this deal + Sandin and Engvall raises. Sandin also starts getting top 4 minutes.

 

[Clark4Ever]

I think it's Tavares game that's slipped and not Nylanders..is moving Johnny to the wing insane? I mean have Tavares still take draws but pass off actual defensive responsibilities to Nylander/Necas ( or someone that has experience at C ) . Could save his legs /make him more effective longterm ...idk. Just a thought

I've thought about this as well. Sooner or later, I think it needs to happen to get the most out of him for the remainder of his contract.

 

[pdson]

Huh. Who the heck is this. The team is getting worse everyday. WTF

The fact that you don't know who the heck this is tells me all i need to know. WTF

and the most non-physical D you've ever seen... I don't see it.

Yup. You can't deal Muzzin without an appropriate replacement lined up

Rielly - Brodie
Gio - Lilly
Sandin - Holl

That gets bullied come playoff time by a heavy forecheck. I'd keep Muzz and move Kerfoot/Holl to get us the 5.5 million we need

Sandin UFA & Engvall UFA
$756,884 in Cap Space
Is Kerfoot the odd man out ?
With this Jarnkrok signing something has to give

Trading Kerfoot gives them the most cap flexibly leaving $2.8 for a 12th forward, and carrying 7 dman. If they feel they need to trade Holl to make sure Sandin has a spot then you have $4.4M to re-sign Engvall and Sandin. I am assuming here that we sending down Simmonds and Clifford.

 

[Nineteen67]

Dependable player with the Preds.

Would make Dubas' life easier, and creates room to sign another FA. Unfortunately he has a NMC. In his final year he has a NTC, at which point it makes more sense to trade him in that final next year.

 

[TorMapleJays]

10-team NTC that he had to submit on Wednesday.

fourth liners shouldnt ever get NTC or NMC

After watching Engvall in the playoffs, I am hoping he isnt back. I have seen him chip enough pucks softly off the boards into the chest of the tampa player..... ping pong.

100%....unless we value Kerfoot over Engvall & I hope that's not the case especially considering Engvall would cost less cap....it also comes down too would you prefer a combo of :
Kerfoot + Sandin + Engvall or
Subban + Engvall + Holl + Sandin

I enjoy playing with the CapFriendly utility... One thing that works cap wise, is signing Sandin at $2 mil. Engvall at $1.6 Trading Kerfoot, Holl, Muzzin.... Trading for Weegar and we still have $5.8 mil in cap space, with a 20 man roster. Offer Niederreiter a $5.5 mil one year deal.

Bunting - Matthews - Marner
Niederreiter - Tavares- Nylander
Engvall - Kampf - Jarnkrok
Robertson/Clifford/Simmonds/Anderson/Holmberg/Gaudette/NAK combo

Rielly Brodie
Sandin Weegar
Giordano Liljegren

[cyris]

Have to take off money for engvall however

True. But you also have to remove the salary of whoever he bumps out of the current roster.

 

[Gallagbi]

Feels like a third line replacement for Mik.

 

[Niagara Bill]

My first reaction was WTF. Under performer.
My second reaction was, unlikely to be a performer, WTF.

 

[Mess]

This might be the best player the Leafs have added this offseason.

Wasn't this his first full year. Do you believe in development lol?

This is true

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Is he nasty?

He a freak.

 

[GoodNewfieBoy]

I love Jarnkrok. Love this signing. Watched him with Calgary. Hard time finishing but works his ass off and has some skill. And he’s normally a 40 point guy. He’s honestly a perfect third line player who can step up to the second line. Love the signing

 

[TopG]

I am curious how someone who is 30 years old will be five years older in four years? You need to work on your math skills.

Nah just makes my point even more

Yes sire that is too way too soft... think of our new gezoalies. Murray and Samsonov might be injured all the time if we aint have the d-man to punish other suckas who step on our goalies hands. Reaves etc are really bad, marchand and wilson. They run over goalies. Others too. Many many others. We need pushermen. If muzzin is out, we would be needing to get BOROWIECHKI. HARD AND FAST.

 

[Zonk]

Nah just makes my point even more

I agree. But it is not the point that you may think that it is.

 

[7even]

So that's Kerfoot out yeah?

 

[A1LeafNation]

So that's Kerfoot out yeah?

Nope.

 

[mcleex]

4 years lol
