A few players will press for leaf jobs next season. I'm sure Giordano and Lyubushkin
can be brought back for 2.5 million each
To create cap space the player the leafs trade is Muzzin. His nearly 6 million in cap space holds much more value than the player
I think flyers and Simmons have nice reunion for the last season of Simmons career
Leafs trade Muzzin Simmons
Philadelphia 2nd round pick
Bunting Matthews Marner
Nylander Tavaras Kerfoot
Robertson Kampf Engvall
Spezza Steeves. Kase
Joey Anderson
Reilly Lyubushkin
Sandin Muzzin
Giordano Liljegren
Campbell Woll
This trade gives leafs some good money to add in free agency Campbell can resign for 4 million and Mrazek is traded

You still have muzzin on the team despite trading him.

Mistake
Holl should be 2nd pairing right.

Well first who/ what do Leafs get for Muzzin and Simmonds?
$2.5m is too much for Giordano and Lyubushkin IMO.
Give Lyubushkin a $500k raise to $1.85m and let Giordano walk.
You are also letting Mikheyev walk it seems. Try and sign for a Mac of $3m. If he doesn’t continue to improve like this year he will at least give us a return. Lots of teams want his speed and PK ability.
Yes trade Mrazek, waive or buy out. Kallgren is an acceptable replacement if no other goalie trade is made.
My view is to offer a $2m raise to Soup ($3.65m) for 3 years. Don’t go over $4m.
Now we need to make strategic moves to get tougher to play against with players who have size, jam, speed and willingness to battle.

I trade Simmons and Muzzin for picks. I want the cap space . If you trade Muzzin all your forwards are coming back better and we assume Tavaras stays same as last year in production
My point with the 2 defenders you go high as 2.5 million each if you can get them for less it’s a bonus.
The only player you might lose is Mikheyev and I’m ok with that. I think you can find upgrade on him with available cap money
There are three forwards pressing for jobs next season . Robertson Steeves and Joey Anderson. Those three could find Homes on the bottom two lines
I can make a case the leafs are same as they were at end of season minus Mikheyev and they have all summer to improve defence and top 9 forward group.

I’d certainly take draft picks and the cap space to move those two.
I still don’t think either is worth $2.5m.

4th line will get demolished and Muzzin on the right side ain’t happening.
