The Leafs won't be able to match all three offers and we could probably get Kapenen or Johnsson.
I thought any team can offer any other teams player when they become a rfa and the players team has to at least match the offer or will recieve compensation if they don't match. So why not offer Marner which Toronto matches, then offer Kapenen which Toronto matches, then offer Johnsson which Toronto will have no more cap room left.You have to have own those picks to give out an offer sheet, hence you can’t hand out three big offer sheets.
You probably won't be able to sign all three stud rfas due to cap space and Vancouver needs offense.I don't mean to barge in here, but I saw the thread title from the main page...
What is with some people's obsession with Leafs free agents?
I think there is a time period where Toronto gets to "mull the offer sheet". I forgot how long? 7 days? a month?I thought any team can offer any other teams player when they become a rfa and the players team has to at least match the offer or will recieve compensation if they don't match. So why not offer Marner which Toronto matches, then offer Kapenen which Toronto matches, then offer Johnsson which Toronto will have no more cap room left.
I agree, but once he's signed there won't be enough cap space left to sign both Kapanen and Johnsson.Only way Marner is coming here is 4 firsts going the other way. I can't see that happening.

They’re good and the leafs will be in cap trouble.I don't mean to barge in here, but I saw the thread title from the main page...

I never said simultaneous. Offer sheet Marner, then Toronto has to match in 7 days which they will. Then offer Kapenen with whats left of their cap which won't be more than 4 million, which they will. Now they have no cap space and offer Johnsson 4 million a year or less and Toronto gets a 2nd round draft pick as compensation. Its not about obsession about Leafs, its about taking advantage of another teams cap situation. Its just coincidental that its the Leafs.besides the ridiculousness of this idea, it would be impossible to sign all 3 of them to simultaneous offer sheets due to the draft pick compensation rules.
People need to let go of the Leafs obsession, they're a good young team, get over it.
