Kampf is a WHAT?Kampf is a selke-level defensive center and PKer. Neither Holmberg nor Dewar do that.

Kampf is a WHAT?
One of the elite defensive centers. I realize he doesn't score enough to actually get votes for the Selke.
Marner, Dewar, Holmberg, McMann, KniesAssuming you don't carry any extra players all season, that's accurate.
Who's on the PK?
I accidentally put Domi twice instead of Marner. It's the same story as far as cap space.You’re missing Marner. If he wasn’t in the picture we’d either have a lot more cap space or other forwards in the mix
What do you think this shows?

Not really. That tweet was probably posted in reply to similar criticisms.
Liljegren isn’t good, despite all efforts to pump him up.
Kampf makes 2.4The most common idea thrown around is just move Kampf and Jarnkrok. Moving out both Kampf and Jarnkrok gives you 3.5 million.... but to fill 2 roster spots, one of which will be at least 775,000. That means, at the absolute most, you get 2,875,000 to replace Kampf at 3C.... which means you aren't really upgrading....
Wasn’t good on his last contract, he’ll look way worse at 3mil per year……….Liljegren isn’t good, despite all efforts to pump him up.
Yep. $4.5M less two replacement salaries...gives just under $3M to spend. Who is our there FA or trade that is a fit and an upgrade at $3M or less?Kampf makes 2.4
Janrok makes 2.1
That’s 4.5
196 games is a pretty good amount of time to show what you are, I mean it’s almost halfway to qualifying for a NHL pension……..Liljegren isn’t bad either, despite all efforts to tear him down.
He’s just a young player who has had both good and bad stretches and should improve and become more consistent with more experience.
I think it is possible they trade Liljegren. He received a 2.4M signing bonus and now only makes 3.6M over the next 2 seasons. That will help sell a trade.Liljegren might actually be traded.
There doesn't seem to be any feasible way to change the forward group otherwise. Timmins who was the odd man out would have a role again as you still have 3 RH and a back up puck mover.
Rielly - Tanev
Benoit - McCabe
OEL - Hakanpaa
Timmins
^ This doesn't seem like much of a drop off from having Liljegren. Allows you to continue developing Timmins (Really good toolset and upside, bent over backwards to keep him off waivers last season).
But, there is nuance to this. Liljegren is still an asset. He is a coveted right hander and provides cost certainty and untapped upside for 2 years. The signing makes sense as a back up plan and as an enticing piece to move. Leafs are cap compliant and under no pressure to move off salary which is in their favor.
Marner, Dewar, Holmberg, McMann, Knies
That Dewar isn't handling the load the Kampf is?What do you think this shows?
