Cap Chaos: Barabanov Sweepstakes, Compliance Moves, RFA Futures + Fake Playoffs Preview
Jonas and James congregate on what would have been the week kicking off the start of playoffs and discuss the latest around the Maple Leafs after winning the Alexander Barabanov sweepstakes, as well as what the signing could mean for a team strapped for cap space. Looking at the big picture, the guys debate who the Leafs might have to move to stay cap compliant going forward, the future of RFAs Travis Dermott and Ilya Mikheyev, as well as if the league can do anything to lessen the impact of a stagnant cap ceiling when hockey returns. Plus, James prepares to break down a simulated first round playoff matchup between Leafs and Lightning with The Athletic's Dom Luszczyszyn.Support The Leaf Report!
