Leafs won't retain salary more than likely, but even at that it's a bad trade for the Leafs. Leafs have centres they would prefer to play at the 3/4 spot in Bozak and Gauthier than having to give an asset to get Kruger.
Pokka (if he does really exist, zero games in the NHL),
the Leafs have 3 younger Dmen in the AHL who they are high on, though just Nielsen plays on the RD as a LHD.
Campbell doesn't need the money but is he really going play for just 1m? Dallas doesn't match that Olesiak contract? Having DeBrincat as a NHL regular next season is more than hopeful.
