Toronto Maple #LeafsForever update after trading Engvall and acquiring Schenn:
LTIR Relief: $11.9M
LTIR Used: $7M
LTIR Cap Space: $4.7Mhttps://t.co/IHGz8kVDde— CapFriendly (@CapFriendly) February 28, 2023
Removing Joe Woll from the roster would create $5.5 million in room, more than enough to fit Matt Murray. So Dubas can stop now, but can he really? Is there a help line for hockey GMs who can’t stop making trades? He doesn’t have to stop now.
The roster is still at 23 and the SPCs that count are at 49. There is enough LTIR pool to add Matt Knies. So given that as likely, this is it. Maybe.
