<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Onlyfairtrades1</b></div><div>Sure. I did in part 2 some, but the bottom line is the Rangers have the same problem as the Leafs in that they cannot afford to sign Nylander after next season, so one year is not worth Laffy, Goodie and a 1st round pick. Salary cap issues, so the answer to the trade is no thanks.</div></div>

Don’t think that means I need to brush up on the cap. Was trying to make a hockey trade that works for both teams. Rangers were apparently trying to attach an asset to get out of Goodrow’s contract. Without doing so they won’t be able to sign Laf.

Ranger get a 1st line winger who just put up 40 goals and get out of a bad contract.

Leafs get bottom 6 depth on a bad contract, Laf (who hasn’t lived up to expectations yet, but has great potential) and a pick

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LivingAnew</b></div><div>The problem with any Murray trade to CHI now is that the buyout window is closed (I think) for the Hawks to buy him out (a la Bailey). If that's true, it means we must keep him on the roster. And in so doing, we deprive Soderblom of NHL time HE needs to develop. And if we sent Soderblom down to the AHL again (unsure that's workable now in his case), it'd obstruct two other goalies we have down there from getting their development time.

That's why I say that the time of sending Murray to the Hawks has passed. I think CHI would have been willing to move up in the 2023 draft to get the Boston first round pick that TOR held, and give TOR a second in the deal. (I have to think that Easton Cown would still have been available in the second round, but who knows?) That way, Murry would be totally off TOR's books and TOR could still have had a good pick. Alas, that time has passed for the Hawks. Or, I should say, that any deal NOW for the Hawks to take Murray has to be a LOT better than before the buyout window closed. My sense is that TOR will just buy him out, now.

He's all yours. Good luck.</div></div>

Why couldn’t you just bury Murray or Mrazek in the minors and take the assets?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Joronto</b></div><div>L for TOR with that Nylander trade. Treliving can do better than that.

Buyout for Murray next year is 2M. They should avoid that with the potential Matthews resigning - and maybe Bertuzzi and Domi as well...</div></div>

I don’t think that’s a bad return at all. Toronto is looking to get bigger and more physical on the back end. Wright is a top 5 pick who is cost controlled for the next few years. That allows the leafs to be able to extend the guys you’re talking about. With nylanders ask being in the 10 mil AAV that’s going to limit the return on him to rental price or teams that can afford that extension (and there aren’t that many).

Problem with a murray trade is you have to attach assets to him to get rid of him (Bailey and a 2nd). I’d rather buy him out this year and it doesn’t affect them (600k) and take the 2 million hit next year. With Klingberg and brodie expiring there is more than enough money to give matthews a raise and sign 1 or both of domi and bertuzzi long term. While still being able to find more affordable replacements for them on the backend.
