I wonder if we'll see Jarnkrok out, Domi in. I'd probably prefer to keep both but if it came down to it Domi is better

Seems counter productive. Jarnkroks a 20 goal scorer that PKs and is good all-around.

We are taking steps forward. Taking a step back after these seems weird to me. Domi is terrible defensively and Bertuzzi isn't much of a defensive stalwart either.
 
I don't see how this is possible, unless Nylander is getting traded. I can't imagine they are trading Brodie?

The Leafs seem capped out and need to move Murray to get Samsonov signed.
We can go over by 10% of cap till season starts lots of time to become cap compliant. Just like any other year.
 
I can feel a Nylander trade coming.
Nylander for Pesce + Morrow. Then we see Murray + Timmins for future considerations.
Domi gets 2 years @ 2.5.

Agreed but I don't think it's realistic to fit in Domi and Samsonov unless you move somebody out (besides Murray who needs to go regardless)

He probably won't be a 20 goal scorer outside of the top 6, but we need his two-way contributions.

Nylander for Pesce is terrible. Morrow isn't much of a needle mover either, above average prospect.

To me, Seattle is probably the team you hope steps up and offers a good package for Nylander. A lot of good young players/prospects and picks. And then turn around and trade for a targetted defenseman that isn't a pending UFA asking for a huge extension.

Very good asset management to pick up players in FA if you have to trade Nylander. Nylander still has a lot of value even with only 1 year left. Hopefully it involves a player on an ELC who can contribute.
 
I wonder if Timmins and/or Lafferty are moved later to make a little extra space if needed.

Timmins, yes. Lafferty, almost certainly not. We already lack PKers (and PK centers especially), and we need speed. He brings all of that to the table.

TBH, I could still see the Leafs bringing in a cheap 4th liner like Shaw or AJF (Nosek is probably too expensive) if they have decided that Robertson needs to spend the year in the AHL.
 
The question becomes can he be a consistent 3rd line C or is he more suited to LW at this point?

Our center depth looks much better if its Matthews - Tavares - Domi - Kampf vs Matthews - Tavares - Kampf - Holmberg

It looks like he played both positions in the playoffs but a little more success at wing?

So suddenly if we land Domi, going from Bertuzzi being Buntings replacement, to Max Domi being Bunting replacement, and added a REAL top 6 forward to the group, something Dubas couldn't do in 5 years..........


The rumored 2.5m for 1 year would be real nice for Domi.
