I thought Gally was the Top 6 F?How long have we been waiting for that to 6 forward ?? Dubas is throwing us a bone for now.

Wow hes probably done for the year then. dubas/shanny have to hit a homerun and go big at the deadline. The team put pressure on them for once to make big moves.Would depend on if they have the cap space.
If freddy is on ltir can he come back during regular season?
Not going to lie, Gally has impressed the hell out of me so far.I thought Gally was the Top 6 F?
He certainly was better at that than ChicoHigh concepts in LeaFland are best not discussed, they create more confusion then Wayne Maki can swing a stick at.
If not, then we can buy Freddie a one-way ticket to Robidas Island?After 24 days and 10 games, yes. But we need to have the cap space.

I rarely ever post on mainboards. Leaf fans are too good for spending time in that cesspool.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
Brilliant move
Create cap space
Acquire one of the best defensive forwards
Lose nothing

Not unless we clear 1.35M in salary via trade - he can return for the post-season, but otherwise he's on LTIR for the rest of this one.
LTIR, Riley Nash will be a depth forward once he's back in the playoffs. I would think we are getting Taylor Hall, because if we were getting Foligno they would have just included that into the deal

It's just so frustrating. Maybe I'm explaining things incorrectly. Or maybe I'm just wrong.but my understanding is the max cap is 81.5 mil. If for whatever reason marner got hurt. He goes on ltir at the beginning of the year for the season. That allows the leafs to spend the amount he's owed on someone else.than in the playoffs marner is healthy he gets to play as well as that replacement player. It's the same thing just later on in the season. So if freddy and nash are both on ltir until the playoffs the leafs can get a contract of 7.75mil for the remainder of this year. Does that make sense? Or am I just dead wrong?I rarely ever post on mainboards. Leaf fans are too good for spending time in that cesspool.
There was a twitter post earlier that said before this deal the Leafs had ~$1.5m in space to work with. So assuming Andersen isn't done for the regular season, they have at most $1.5m to work with.
They probably want a 2nd+ for Foligno.
Other teams know the Leafs are very close to being a fav for the Cup and will make the Leafs pay.
To everyone who says Foligno would have been included in the same deal, the Leafs had to fit Nash under the cap before LTIRing him, with Andersen on alone they wouldnt have had enough to cover Foligno's full cap hit. Not saying itll happen, but this doesnt rule him out.
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.

Nobody comes back from Robidas IslandIf freddy is on ltir can he come back during regular season?
Right. I was just using day one of the season to keep it simple. So I'm not crazy. The main board is absolutely nuts.Pretty much right, but its calculated from your current cumulative cap hit. Say the Leafs had 2 mill in cap space and then LTIR a player making 5 mill, they are only allowed to go 3 mill over the cap. I am assuming Dubas recalled a bunch of players to hit as close to the cap as possible before LTIRing Andersen and Nash though so itll be as close to 7.75 mill as possible, likely within 100k
