The Leafs have a ton of it this year -- probably about $15m after signing the RFAs -- but not so much after that. As for things to spend this short-term cap space on, some have speculated on a massive one-year Tavares deal (unlikely given fears of freak injuries) or a big contract for Thorton...

Looking ahead a few years, I see the Leafs current roster as including a core of players under contract for the next 3+ years or are almost certain to be signed long term, guys who'll definitely be gone, players that are replaceable and likely won't be here after their current contract is up...

So... that deadline, a draft, and a free agency season have come and gone, still no trade. Recently asked the chances JvR finishes the season with the Leafs, Mirtle offered: "I'm going to go out on a relatively thick limb here and say 95-per-cent chance... you don't dump a 30-goal guy who's...

So? given what we?ve seen this year, and before Lou does anything crazy, where do y?all think this rebuild is at? Last summer, after the lottery, I offered what was then a wildly optimistic projection, not only because I dreamed of them signing Stamkos and using JvR to sort out the defense in...

I was going to wait till the half-way mark or try to get this out at the quarter pole. And now (mired in slump, about to his a really rough stretch) mightn't be the most time to evaluate fairly, but I thought I'd try this anyway... Pleasant surprises 1. Bolland looking like the versatile center...

Here's something I found concerning last season. It's basically the "regression to the mean" problem, but put a slightly different way. I hope I'm not just howling UNSUSTAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIINABLE!! and predicting doom here. First, the problem: In 2013, the Leafs gave up 1,441 shots (27th in the...
