Benning traded Schaller, Madden, a second round pick, and a conditional 4th for Toffoli, only to watch Toffoli walk away early in free agency. So i don't know, does that constitute as good asset management??

Is planning to pad his stats with McDavid on the PP for a year and then hunt for a new contract? He couldn't do that here behind Hughes.
Yup.

I prefer to give credit where credit is due. Can they trade Virtanen while he's awaiting arbitration? Pulock just filed so maybe they can swap arbitration cases with the Islanders. lol

A "go thru the motions" style season, where the team might even become a lottery, :cry: team again would also be a real pisser for the high
profile players on the team. Pettersson, Hughes, Horvat, Boeser, and I can't even imagine how pissed JT Miller would be. NOT good.
After a few folks set records in the Pants Shitting Olympics, Micky says "Hold my beer." :lol:

Season doesn't start til January boys...

It's a typical deadline rental trade that paid off.

So: YES

Holy shit Toronto making cap room dealing Andreas Johnsson. Could see them going after Bogosian.

Interesting Saad/Zadorov deal between Bowman and Sakic.

Nah, they don't have any room despite dumping Johnsson (for basically nothing).

They're within $2.3M of the cap and still have to re-sign Mikheyev and Dermott.

($2M each?)

And even if they manage to re-sign those two, they'd still be at only 22 players.

Yeah, they'll be looking to dump Kerfoot next (good luck widdat!).

Well shit, they didn't need any space, Leaves got Bogosian for just $1M x 1.

I wonder if they trade off Dermott now...

Keep it up Dubas. You too can manage to dump all of your depth. (Btw, mouth-breathers, Toronto's salary structure and current shoit-show is exactly why we didn't really want OEL at a full cap hit)

What's the deal with Madison Bowey? Wasn't he a guy everybody was hot on a few years ago?
