Nah pass. We need to see what we have in Ceci first. He's an RD defenseman. Leafs trading away a RD defenseman after clamoring for it for years would be dumb

how do we make it work? best I can do is a 21 man roster, also keep in mind short term injuries can't go on LTIR, so we would need enough space to have 2 spares
They guy who WROTE the cba and knows all the loopholes works for the Leafs.

no we dont. beauty of having an AHL team in the same city. paper transactions

absolute worst case scenario they dress 11 forwards and give a plug like gauthiers 7 mins to JT/Matthews/Kerfoot

When hyman comes off ltir, you have to free up 2.5 mill in space. Sending down won't be an option so a trade of equal or more is necassery. This has been explained already, saying different dont make it so.

Let’s see what he can do for us.

I really think he’s a capable #4/5 guy and will prove lots of people wrong. Hope I’m right.

What cap issues?
The Leafs will be tight up against the cap next few years. They will have to run roster adjustments all year to make it work. It can be done but it's better to give yourself some space to maneuver around, maybe add someone at deadline, etc. Perception is they might have to get rid of Hyman, AJ/Kap.

Now you obviously don't wanna get rid of those players so then you work your way to the defense. Only player you can give up would be Ceci (4.5M @1 year) and that too at the deadline.

I don't know how Ceci will transition to the Leafs, how he will play with Rielly, etc. Lots of unknowns right now, so that's why I said maybe at the deadline because his cap hit would be halved by then.

That may be true, but it doesn't change the fact that his play now is nowhere near what one would expect from a 4.5M player
