The Toronto Maple Leafs might not be in as much salary cap trouble as we’re used to, after they have spent years and years of penny-pinching, but they would need to clear some cap space if they want to make impactful additions to this roster. And one center could be on his way out before training camp starts this fall.
David Kampf appears to be the odd-man out. Not only is his contract still having two years left with a cap hit of $2.4 million, not the most desirable asset to remain on the Maple Leafs, but he will most likely be a 13th forward or even down in the AHL to start the season.
