He didn’t directly refute that rumour either. He said that he hasn’t heard Toronto has expressed interest and that you shouldn’t believe all the rumours you hear.

Agreed. I don’t want him at all and a lot of the reason comes from that.

How the Maple Leafs stand to benefit from Jake Muzzin’s cap space
The veteran Leafs defenceman is finished for the season as he recovers from a cervical spine injury.
www.thestar.com
Cap space
The Leafs currently have 13 forwards using up $55,521,246 of cap space, eight defencemen at $19.7 million and two goalies at $2,566,667. a total of $77,787,913, according to capfriendly.com. That leaves them $4,712,087 under the cap (although capfriendly is projecting the team to have $4,420,833 of cap space, because nothing is ever as simple as it seems.)
Muzzin, Matt Murray ($4,687,500), Nick Robertson ($796,667) and Victor Mete ($750,000) are on long-term injured reserve. But not every dollar counts toward cap relief. It can depend on how much cap space the team had before a player went on LTIR. If a team had $1 million in cap space and put a $5-million player on LTIR, the team would only get $4 million in cap relief. According to capfrienly, the Leafs are projected to have used $6,351,650 in LTIR space.
Roster status
The Leafs are not likely to add a player via trade until March 3. Up until the trade deadline, the roster maximum is 23 players. The Leafs are already there. If they add another player before the deadline, it will mean removing one from the roster, barring injury. And all of their skaters require waivers to be moved to the Marlies (goaltender Joe Woll is exempt).
So adding a depth defenceman before the deadline might mean risking the loss of a player like forward Joey Anderson or defenceman Jordie Benn on waivers. Teams can carry more than 23 players after the deadline.
Trade deadline
With Muzzin and Robertson out for the season, Dubas can count on $6,421,667 of LTIR cap space. Murray and Mete are wild cards, but a healthy Murray will eat up a lot of it. The Leafs anticipate Murray will be part of their playoff drive.
Once Murray is reactivated, it would mean sending Woll back to the Marlies. bumping the Leafs’ cap total to $81,708,746 and leaving them with $791,254 of space to use. If Mete is activated, that would use another $750,000, giving Dubas no wiggle room.
It would seem Luke Schenn would be too expensive the Leafs, if they don’t put a player on waivers). He has an $850,000 cap hit.
What to do?
Standing pat would be the safest, most conservative action for Dubas but he hardly seems the type. One question is when will Murray be reactivated? The Leafs could acquire more players of significance at the deadline if Murray stays on injured reserve, then goes to the Marlies on a rehab assignment to prepare for the playoffs. It’s the Nikita Kucherov approach — the Tampa Bay forward missed the 2020-21 season, giving the Lightning $9.5 million in cap relief, only to return for the first game of the playoffs.
The Leafs could also use long-term injured reserve if a player with a significant contract gets hurt before March 22. That tool can’t be used if fewer than 10 games and 24 days remain in the season. Or they take a player-in/player out approach to trading if it means an upgrade on the likes of Anderson and Benn. That could mean active use of the waiver wire on March 2, to open up space for the next day.
There’s also the miracle known as assistant GM Brandon Pridham. If there’s a salary cap loophole to be used or a dollar amount left unaccounted for, Pridham likely will find it.
Cost aside, I don’t see why Kane won’t be a good addition for their Cup run this year.
He is pure clutch and despite his down season and his current surge, I would still trust Kane in elimination games more than any of our guys not name ROR.
Will he come is another story.
Can McCabe plays RD? Bc getting him means switching Sandin or Gio to RD. Unless Sandin is going the other way. Which kind of defeat the purpose since getting a top 4 d is to bump Holl down.

Kane might request that Domi goes with him wherever he goes. They have been a fun little duo to watch lately. I always liked Domi but I liked other targets better for our team, but if we plan to put O'Rielly at 3C then I think Domi could be a good LW for Matthews tbh with what I've been seeing from him lately. Much better playmaker then I thought he was. Even if they plan to keep O'Rielly at 2C it could be worth seeing what the cost would be. Maybe Domi is just best at C though and not so good at wing.

Defense still needs a physical presence. Tampa has Cernak, Sergachev, Bogosian and Ian Cole. That's a big and gritty defense.
Bruins have Carlo, MaCavoy, Clifton, and Forbort. Apparently, they're adding Gavrikov to the mix
I don't even know who our most physical defender is

Our only hope is making plays so crisp and fast they cant get possession on a dump in cause almost no one on our D line is winning those board battles or stopping a cycle in its tracks in the defending zone. And I worry about the speed at which Holl makes these types of plays.

McCabe and domi would round out this team nicely
Kerfoot, holl can all go for asset to trade and if u can convince Kane to come with domi even better lol
a sandin for tanev would also work out nicely for me!!!

I think a Calgary decision to sell won’t be made until much closer to the deadline. They are four points out of a wild card spot.

I tried to warn y’all that Kane was not washed…
Even at his worst he was on pace for 60 points.
What he’s doing now isn’t just what any washed vet is capable of, it’s that hall of fame pedigree…

Kane is still elite imo. A 70-80 point guy at minimum if he’s healthy. Would you guys offer bunting+ for him? I like bunting but feel like he’s gonna get more than I’d like on a new deal. See him more as a 3rd line player than top 6. He’s just lucky to be surrounded by great talent I think.
Why would a rebuilding team want a package built around an impending UFA?
Imagine McCabe, Domi and Kane wearing the Blue and White. Then out goes Kerfoot and Holl plus picks and prospects.
If the Leafs can’t win with adding McCabe, Domi, Kane, ROR and Acciari, I don’t know what to say.

I could see the leafs going with what they have up front. They could use an elite winger like Kane, but with O’Reilly, Accarai and maybe Knies that is a heck of deadline pull already. And with so few assets to trade I think they end up prioritizing a d-man that they could re-sign, preferably a RD. If it’s a LD he would have to be quite a bit better than Sandin. If it’s a RD he would have to be better than Holl. So the standard for RD is lower. Jensen or TVR seem like ok options. I wouldn’t even mind Parayko. For LD Ekholm or a Orlov. The price will be high and it will be all our remaining assets. On goalie I think they run with Murray, Samsonov and Woll. It’s a bit average but upgrading at goalie will prove to be difficult as well. If I only have assets for one move it would be this in order: 1) RD 2) LD 3) Goalie 4) winger
