with auston renewing (FINALLY) does the leafs have enough cap space to renew willy? 🥺

i honestly don't think cap will be much more of an issue than it was already gonna be, lol. they're gonna maybe be tight for 24-25 because tavares hit is high but he'll definitely take a steep cut to retire here, and treliving signed a bunch of one year deals for domi, bertuzzi, klingberg so their cap space for the following year is free.... idk. if the cap rises a bit by bit, i don't think auston's cap hit is gonna impact what the leafs will do with willy one way or another tbh. it'll all just depend on how the bottom six and defense are constructed.

#easks #like. ppl trying to act like it is suddenly a problem when the aav is actually under what was being guessed at the beginning of the summer #im gonna take a wild guess and say maybe willy wont have as productive a year this year and holding out is actually gonna lower the ask #thats conjecture but like if he truly outperforms n has another career year then idk if the leafs can give him what he wants regardless lol #and still have enough room to build a roster but thats kinda got not much to do w auston #and im not in the take-a-team-friendly-deal camp for like. any player tbh so lol #i actually feel like theres quite a bit of space ??????? but anyway.
