Confirmed with Link: [TOR/CBJ] TOR acquire Riley Nash for Conditional. 7th Pick in 2022

  • Xenforo Cloud has upgraded us to version 2.3.6. Please report any issues you experience.
Since Andersen on the LTIR means he's done, I wonder if we scoop up Merzlinkins along with Foligno. He's expansion exempt as well, so we could still expose Hutchinson.
 
It's about real dollars not cap. Us taking on Nash exactly offsets Columbus retaining 50% of Foligno, who then assumes Nash's cap space.

Leafs can't take Foligno @ 50% retention. Freddy still likely needs to come off LTIR before the playoffs start and we don't have space for both Freddy and Foligno.
 
When we don’t give a shhhhhhh.......tttt about5 or 6 or 7 or 8th round draft picks , that usually means we are trying to win cups every year ....
Yes please some more of this every year and more
Just win baby !
 
If Riley Nash comes back healthy what does this mean for Engvall?

It means @Teeder Keon does this.

I believe it was $2.1 mill and Andersen cannot come back unless the Leafs clear more cap which means Andersen is likely done for the season. Theyll be going into the TDL with ~7 million.

Without any more moves, Andersen can come back, The Leafs have $5 free in their LTIR relief pool. Andy is not done for the season, best information we have on that is Keefe saying yesterday (?) that there is 0 concern that he is done for the season.
 
If Dubas aquires another goalie, I'd say Freddy is done. If not, they most likely think he will be ready. Start Campbell like the Caps started Grubauer and bring in Freddy as needed.

IMO, they are not going after another goalie. The belief in Freddy is still there even with Soup's current run - and if that run continues and it means Freddy sits as the backup when the playoffs start, so be it.
 
I've tried to explain in the most summed down version and people are still arguing that the leafs dont receive the cap relief. I explained that they had to fit him under the cap than they placed him on ltir and we get space. Once healthy in the playoffs we can play nash since the cap doesn't matter.

But of course people just chirp saying we didnt get rick nash

Leafs only get enough cap relief to fit Riley Nash, which he fully consumes. We can't use anymore of the $2.75m of relief that he provides, because he himself took all of it by us adding him to the roster. So we have exactly the same amount of cap space for the TDL as we did before we acquired Nash.

The catch is that Nash won't be activated off the LTIR until the playoffs. So when playoffs come, we add his $2.75m cap hit to the roster when there is no more cap limit.

But outside of activating him in the playoffs, we can't use his salary room on LTIR.
 
That assumes Andersen comes off the LTIR as a Leaf or at all this season. He's possibly traded as he's clearly lost the starters job

Sure, of course that's a possibility. But that is completely independent of Riley Nash. We could LTIR Andy him for the season or trade him, and we're in the same boat with or without the Nash trade.

If we're sending Andersen away, then we don't even need CBJ to retain on Foligno because we'll have the space for him.
