Think it’s more than fair. Is 32 year old Martinez an upgrade on ceci this year? Could the leafs do better with the cap space next season? Leafs give up Johnsson and a third on top. Not sure I like this deal.

Martinez gives you another dman undercontract since the whole blueline is gonna be up. Campbell helps , its not a bad deal.

I think that is actually a detractor to be honest. I'd rather use that capspace to re-sign Barrie.

I’m not convinced Barrie is the guy they resign. I think he may get more than what the Leafs are willing to part with via free agency. Martinez is a low risk investment. 4M is not very pricy at 1 year remaining and may entice Muzzin to sign at a cheaper cap hit. It could also free up Pietro money. Would still require a move or two. My guess is Barrie gets anywhere between 6.5-8 on the open market. I’d rather spend 4M on a 2nd pairing d-man and throw whatever you can at Pierre assuming he hits the market.
