Andersen was placed on LTIR retroactively, which means he is not done. He can probably be re-activated as early as tomorrow because he's already been out for something like over a week.

Leafs had center depth but now they have that shutdown center depth with Engvall-Kerfoot-Nash, perfect.
Basically any excuse you can get to bring up the Leafs playoff failures, eh Bert?

Off topic, but one of the funniest posts i read today was in the Canucks forum in which Benning was blamed for the covid outbreak due to eating a bat.

He is not "what the club was missing" but the price is right and a healthy Nash is a solid 4th line guy. Much lower risk than a random AHL forward and he has a little upside as Columbus didn't use him the same way Boston did. I love that "nothing happens on the ice for either team"

OH NO! He's putting the wrong Anderson on LTIR!
How much cap space did the leafs have before this trade? Effects how much cap relief the leafs will get from Nash + Andy on LTIR
Edit: wondering if it is like the Clarkson trade whereby the leafs targeted a player they can put on the LTIR but who's cap hit brings them really tight to the ceiling to get the most cap relief when both Nash + Freddy put on LTIR

It's not about cap space for us, it's about real dollars for Columbus. With Andersen on the LTIR Dubas could've traded for Dubinsky or Zach Smith, but he traded for the player who would exactly offset Columbus retaining 50% on Foligno in real dollars.

Skip to 1:40 .. O Dog looks like he hasn't gotten an exercise since he retired, and this is hilarious
LTIR move. Leafs get cap space out of this and then get to actually use Nash in the playoffs when he's healthy. Win-win.
what in gawds name are you talking about?
he won't be on our cap ever this year,,he won't be back till the POs and there is no cap in the POs

What we do in hockey echoes in eternity...
You're missing the point. If Andersen is staying on LTIR (he isn't) or being traded, then we don't need CBJ to retain anything on Foligno. If Andersen is coming off LTIR during regular season (he is), then we can't fit Foligno in the cap at half retention.
Looks like Nash's pro rated cap hit was really close to the leafs cap space before the trade so the leafs will only lose 323k from the total cap hits when both Nash + Andy put on LTIRToronto Maple Leafs - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps

This is a brilliant move to get a some a depth player who can provide some size and decent board player. Without costing us anything
Our bottom 6 is too soft and 4th line can be very slow. This gives us an another veteran option
On top of that, the cap relief
This is a good trade for a decent player without losing anything. On top of that, paving the way for something bigger
Work of genius depending who Dubas can get

I tried reading the LTIR rules on Capfriendly just now but I went into a vegetative state. That said, I thought we got the full value back in cap space for a LTIR salary as long as we were spending to the limit otherwise? Isn't that why we picked up a couple of LTIR players over the past few years, to increase the cap?

I understand what you're saying. I'm saying this trade has nothing to do with cap space and everything to do with us making Foligno's retention "free" for Columbus.
Foligno probably isn't the only trade we're going to make. Andersen is done and will likely be traded, he was retroactively put on the LTIR to facilitate today's trade in cap space and us acquiring Nash facilitates Columbus retaining 50% of Foligno.
