And you expect them to pull the salary from where exactly?
Assuming the cap for this year will be $48mil. With the addition of Toskula and Bell, that leaves the Leafs with roughly about $3.5 mil. They still have a 3 more RFA's to decide on; Coliacavo, Williams & Harrison. Cola will probably sign for 1.5 mil, so now lets say they have $2 mill to play with. Most likely, the signing of Williams and Harrison will be about 1.25 mil for both. So lets just say they have $1mil to play with
Kariya was paid 4.5 mil last year - so unless he's going to sign low (which he won't), you can forget about it.
Smyth hauled in 3.5 mill last year. Again, not a chance here.
Honestly, the Leafs are done right now. The only way they can move players is through trades. And that'll be a bit tough with some of the salaries they are carrying.
We shall see either way
