Love how so many people here say things like "Everyone declines" - but nobody ever says WHY!
Leafs take on the LTIRs - the fact half of them are goalies is irrelevant - just coincidence.
How do the Leafs lose the DAL trade? The Leafs add a top 4 RD in Klingberg who has Stanley Cup experience to replace Holl. Engvall is a bottom 6 forward, Kiviranta is too but is cheaper and with term, the Bishop dump cancels out the Ritchie dump - Robertson is the "kicker" for DAL losing out on the Klingberg/Holl and Kiviranta/Engvall swaps and the retention on Klingberg's salary.
How do the Leafs lose the CBJ trade? Laine is the top 6 LW the Leafs are in need of + Domi can play anywhere in the lineup and Korpisalo > Koskinen - The picks are compensation for the salary retentions.
How do the Oilers lose the Mrazek trade? Upgrade their G (Mrazek > Koskinen) and dump 2 dead weight LTIR contracts too - The Leafs do this trade in order to do the CBJ trade as I am SURE Mrazek would have CBJ as one of his 10 teams on his NTC's "no trade list". - The 1st from EDM to TOR is comp for taking on the 2 LTIR contracts and risk with Klefbom and Smith, plus the downgrade TOR takes at G from Mrazek to Koskinen.
