<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>You're right about Timmins, and Leafs would lose him on waivers if sent down. Leafs seem to have a good seven deep Dmen. Even Holloway, Mete can fill in if necessary.</div></div>

Not sure I agree that Timmins has leap frogged Benn on the depth chart - especially come playoff time when they'll be looking for Benn's heavier game.
I do agree they will probably lose him if they put him on waivers, which would be a shame. But I think if that's the risk you have to take to swing for the fences with ROR &amp; Tarasenko, it's worth it.
Losing TImmins is not ideal, but it shouldn't hurt all that much with guys like Holloway, Mete, etc. in the pipeline.
Plus, there's always injuries, so you may not even need to waive him if there are guys on LTIR during the season. (And there's no cap once playoffs start).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>vikhodush</b></div><div>2 cap dumps and some spare parts don’t net Chych</div></div>

Kerfoot is definitely not a cap dump - especially given his real dollars next year are only $750k (even his actual cap hit is still completely reasonable for a player of his profile).
He is a very versatile, valuable player to a team like Arizona next season with that contract.

Muzzin may be a bit overpaid at this point in his career, but for the actual dollars Arizona will pay ($2M this coming season, $4M the season after), he's also not a cap dump.

The only real Cap dump in the proposed trade is Mrazak.
And don't forget, Arizona still needs to ADD almost $28M in cap hit just to reach the cap floor next season.

Also Nick Robertson + 1st rounder are definitely not "spare parts".

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>themostleaf33</b></div><div>Anderson gets 800k imo. Mikheyev likely gets 1.5-2 mill due to Arbitration. I think Dermott gets 2 years at 1.5 mill as well. Fine with the Brassard signing but if they do sign a 3C I'm assuming Engvall+Kerfoot are out the door and Mikheyev plays top 6. Barbanov and Vesey are also projected to be 3rd line players for the leafs (one of them 3rd line one of them 4th line), especially if Robertson does not make the opening night roster.</div></div>

Mikheyev is a wildcard with arbitration, but word is he doesn't really have a strong arbitration case, as arbitration is all about comparables, and he's only played 39 NHL games.
There's no precedent for such an inexperienced RFA getting such a salary bump.

Dermott really has no leverage with no Arb rights in a weaker market.

I could really see Kerfoot fitting well alongside Matthews (I think he's a better W than C), but still gives the opportunity to slide back to C for injuries/shakeups.
It allows Hyman-Tavares-Marner line to be reunited.

The bottom 6 would be a competition all season... Vesey, Barabanov, Engvall, Spezza, Robertson, Boyd, Anderson all battle for spots at the bottom of the lineup and to be injury callups.
Solid depth will be needed in a condensed season.
