Possible Solution For Leafs
After the signings of Pavel Kubina and Hal Gill the
Leafs are in quite a pickle, here is my solution:
Player Salary:
0.8 Steen
0.8 Ponikarovsky
0.9 Kilger
6.8 Sundin
0.5 Pohl
1.6 Tucker
1.5 O’Neill
5.8 McCabe
5.0 Kubina
4.3 Kaberle
2.1 Gill
0.7 Belak
0.7 Kronwall
1.5 Raycroft
0.6 Aubin
0.6 Tellqvist
Total of 34.2 million dollars
9.8 million dollars left
Okay so the Leafs need 1 more defenseman and 7
more forwards, here is who I think they should re-sign:
Ian White: 2-year/500,000 per year
Brendan Bell: 2-year/500,000 per year
Jay Harrison:2-year/500,000 per year
Jason Allison:2-year/1.5 million per year
Eric Lindros:1-year/500,000 per year
Matt Stajan:2-year/650,000 per year
Kyle Wellwood:2-year/650,000 per year
That would leave the Leafs with 5.8 million for 3 forwards, here is who they sign from the free agents:
Eric Daze:1-year/2.5 million per-year
Serge Aubin:2-year/1 million per-year
Dean McCammond:1-year/1.5 million per year
That will leave the Leafs with about 0.6 million dollars in cap space, here is the team:
Steen__Sundin__Daze
Tucker__Lindros__McCammond
Wellwood__Allison__Pohl
Ponikarovsky__Aubin(Serge)__Stajan
Extras:Suglobov, O’Neill
McCabe_Kaberle
Kubina_Gill
Kronvall_White
Extras:Harrison, Bell
__Raycroft__
__Aubin (J.S)__
Tellqvist can be used as trade bait while Belak may
get thrown into the deal as a salary dump.
