Maybe Murray and Nylander in a move for a cheap young good winger
 
Just to clarify: #LeafsForever

are actually exceeding their LTIR candidates cap hit by $2.43M.

Well... if we move Murray, (not bought out) we have $2.256 mil to sign Samsonov, which frankly isn't enough.
Send one of Robertson or Holmberg down and that gives us 3 mill. Obviously one more move will come, but we're pretty close, it doesn't need to be drastic,

Willie goner.
Yeah, I think William Nylander and his agent Lewis Gross will be sent packing.

Gross screwed Treliving over on the Johnny Hockey contract last year. Once bitten, twice shy.

I take the Leafs' spending spree as a sure sign that a Nylander trade is within reach. Signing Bertuzzi and Domi pre-emptively softens the blow.
 
Ah makes sense appreciate it
Glad to straighten it out! It’s actually not a tough situation to navigate. Simply fail Murray on the training camp physical and pay him to go away for the year.

But what about bonuses?
Who on the team has any bonus? Knies maybe? Do you see him reaching any of them?

Willy wants to be a leaf, at the end of the day the agent works for the player and when Willy wanted to get a deal done last time he made it work even when his agent told him to sit at home and wait.

That is why I am asking... If these bonuses hits and that get them over the cap, it will be added to next year's total and that is a bad timing with Matthews extension.

Pretty sure they'd want to avoid that .

Edit : just look at Knies contract, no performance bonuses, just signing bonus.

Yeah I saw the roster number and did the math on the numbers etc then completely missed the (they have 2 mil etc with LTIR) in massive bold letters lol

Maybe he'd go 1x2.5 to get to be a ufa
 
so just did the armchair GM in capfriendly

Bertuzzi Matthews Marner
Jarnkrok Tavares Nylander
McMann Kampf Domi
Clifford Holmberg Lafferty

Reilly Brodie
McCabe Klingberg
Giordano Liljegren

Murray
Woll

is cap compliant to start the year until someone gets injuried. obviously we don't want Clifford in the lineup but wanted to see if I could make the cap work within the current organization and according to capfriendly this lineup gives us 15k in cap space

Edit: let me just add I know this isn't going to happen because it means waiving Reaves and sending Knies to the minors but it does work cap wise

If Knies hits the bonus levels that make any substantial impact on next years cap that only means he and likely the team has had some sort of tangible success this year, and I’ll live with that. They could also drop timmins for a minimum salary guy and run a few hundred grand under the cap to eat some of those bonuses.
What they cannot do is predetermine that next year they’ll still be paying Matt freakin Murray
