He is making $1.72M USD in the KHL right now. Leafs would have to offer him $2M AAV IMO
Any more news on if Grigorenko is interest in coming back?
Rielly, Dermott (RFA), Sandin, and Liljegren. That's 4 of 7.Wow! Talk about scraping the bottom of the barrel.
Nesterov? Really?
Oh wait, they only have Reilly signed next season.
Desperate times, desperate measures.

The Leafs will likely get something done with Holl for 2 RD. He has been fantastic. They will need a partner for Rielly, but a stylistic fit is more important than anything. Johnsson or Kapanen + can be had. Both Muzzin and Barrie likely walk.the problem is it shakes out like;
Rielly XXXX
dermott XXXX
Sandin Lily
the 2/3 missing pieces are not so easy to come by.

That's the problem you can't let them both walk, I don't think it's as some believe it is because I really like Dermott but still you can't have Reilly Dermott, Lilly and Sandin in your top 4 you can't have 2 raw rookies in your top 4.
You either need to keep 1 of Barrie or Muzzin or you need to bring in a top 4 D
can't see Barrie getting what he thinks. I kinda think he may take a short deal to re up his valueBettman said after the GM meetings that the cap might going up to 84-85M. If that is the case, Ceci walking and the cap going up covers the raise to Barrie or Muzzin (Or Pietrangelo fingers crossed lol)
I remember how hyped I was for grigorenko then he didn't turn out the way I expected.
Don’t feel too bad for Muzzin, he will be walking as a free agent due to dubass’ RFA contract negotiating “ability”Jesus is Dubas allergic to physical/grinding players or something.
I feel for Hyman and Muzzin, having to push back against entire teams all on their own now that Kadri is gone.
Grigorenko has talent but he's soft and can be lazy at times.
One of Barrie or Muzzin will be resigned. Most likely Muzzin.
Rielly - XXX
Muzzin - Dermott
Sandin - Liljegren / Holl
That leaves ideally a spot open for a new player, but filling that spot will be hard.
They could go Dermott, Holl, Liljegren on the right side.
Who knows...
I bet they resign Muzzin though. He's been terrific.
You do know they have 11 million this offseason, without even factoring in the cap rising, right?Wow! Talk about scraping the bottom of the barrel.
Nesterov? Really?

Where in my post does it say that's an award winning defense?Locking down that award winning defense: first step to the Cup, right there.
