Nylander needs to be traded.

I am not sure I want to pay Samsonov that much

I am thinking Woll and Murray may be our smartest option for next season.

Trade Sammy in a package to get a good LW. This is the exact same team. Why? Gio should be the 7th d-man, or retire. Jarnkrok has been brutal in the playoffs. Bunting isn't a power forward and is hated by the refs. ZAR has been scratched most of the playoffs. Brodie should be traded for a bag of pucks .

Don’t know where to start. Obviously you don’t know much about how to build a roster.

1. Can’t trade Sammy he’s a RFA. Can trade his rights but why would you do that. Team likes and believes in him plus you need two goalies in this league. You go with Samsonov and Woll. Buyout Murray.

2. Leafs will be going 11 and 7 more. Gio is a great influence and plays well enough for 3rd pair.

3. Jarnkrok is the replacement Swiss Army knife when you don’t sign Kerfoot. He can play up and down the lineup when needed.

4. Bunting definitely needs to tone it down but all he does is put up points and insert energy. Who are you going to replace the 50-60 pts he gets with?

5. Brodie is going nowhere. Coach believes in him. He and McCabe played well together in playoffs.

Umm... yes trade Nylander, if the plan is to give Matthews $1 billion dollars to resign, than Nylander packs his bag and leaves as a UFA. You can't trade Nylander mid season because it'll be too screwy. His trade value will be highest in the off season as teams can fit him under the cap and have more time to consider resigning him. Marner and J.T. will not be going anywhere. Of course if you trade Nylander and Matthews pulls a J.T. and goes home. Yikes ! Rebuild in 2025-2026 season.
