ParticipantWell at least two of their core 4 will be the best players in the league, ones that do well in the playoffs and at least their team has consistently made it past the 2nd round.
They have $16m in cap space…$10 of that will be eaten up by bouchard.
Unless they do a bouchard for Dobson trade? – FakeDon’t like ruin my high bro….I was trying to make myself feel better! lol
Sadly you are right though, 2 of the core 4 (hell Bouchard was a monster 2 years ago in the playoffs too, Nurse is, well Nurse) if the Leafs core had gotten to the cup finals back to back years I’d be all aboard the run it back train!
I do feel like Bouchard is going to be overpaid regardless where he goes, he has a cannon but his Defensive game is m’eh at beast IMO.

Participant7.7M cap hit over 5 year.
Knies comp?
sure, peterka has more games, points, better pts/gm, goals gm, season high points etc etc.
pretty much every catgory hes got better numbers.so far.
if they Leafs could get knies for similar cap but longer term, its a win I think
but taxes blah blah

Not if they trade for Swayman or Gibson.Why would the oilers be interested in either? Gibson sucks, swayman is ok but too expensive.
Besides, Im sure there would be cap retention unless the oilers are unloading a contract of their own the other way.June 26, 2025 at 8:38 am #11849dmnted

ParticipantThey wont be spending that kind of money on a goalie. They could move out pickard ($1m) or either skinner ($2.6m) and spend about $5m on a goalie.

ParticipantHe has a NMC, so he will need to approve the trade destination.
They will also need the cap space for a goalie. I’d say between 6.5M to 8M depending who they target.They wont be spending that kind of money on a goalie. They could move out pickard ($1m) or either skinner ($2.6m) and spend about $5m on a goalie.

I think it’s just that they need the cap space badly to sign Bouchard because Dry Saddle jumps from 8.5 last year to 14M this year.
I heard it on Spittin’ Chicklets when Biz was chriping Whitney but it’s kinda true – Oilers are about to enter their “Core 4” era.Mc Jesus – 12.5
Nurse – 9.25
Bouchard – 10M?
I mean at least it’s 2 F and 2 D but still this is going to put them in a tight spot. Hearing they are going to also try to trade Arvidsson just to clear space and I read that an offer sheet for Bouchard may occur.
Nice to read about these things and it not be about the Leafs for a change. lolWell at least two of their core 4 will be the best players in the league, ones that do well in the playoffs and at least their team has consistently made it past the 2nd round.

ParticipantDoubt very much New Jersey would trade Hamilton to Toronto, don’t think they could afford to fit him anyway.
he’s be part of a package that went for Hughes. So he would be coming via Vancouver. 3 team trade ……..
