Youre overpaying pretty big on edmundson and underpaying on Roy, also zero reason to go after JG Pageau

Where did you find the rumour at, Stupidrumours.com?

What rumor
Be specific

Sounds like a Jimmy Tanner special. 💩

I mean if another team is retaining yes everyday

Sounds like leafs are all in on Woll. Therefore they aren't trading for a goalie in a package for Marner. They will look a UFA goalies and sign one for a max of 2yrs. Goalies in the leafs farm system is the strongest position.

Columbus accepts.

The hell they do

Pageau is still a great defensive centre who kills penalties & wins lots of draws. Also can chip in on secondary scoring, why would we not want him? lol

A free 4th for a serviceable replacement-level forward who makes a little too much for a little too long.

Does it make sense for the team? No, not unless Kuraly gets moved at TDL and Kampf fills that role. But on value, I think it's worth it.

It's not free for those exact reasons.

I mean, yeah, it's the cost of taking him on. But I'd expect a contender needing depth to accept a mid- to late-round pick (a 4th or 5th) as compensation to take him on. I just think that's fair compensation for the player + contract.
