The Toronto Maple Leafs made two bad choices during the off-season.
The Toronto Maple leafs decided to re-sign Pierre Engvall and Keep Alex Kerfoot. Both decisions are coming back to haunt the team.
So far, both Engvall and Kerfoot are underperforming this season. Their performance wouldn’t matter as much if they didn’t combine for $5.75 million of the Toronto Maple Leafs salary cap. Together, they have combined for three goals and ten points. For a team that needs secondary scoring, that is not good enough. (Salary cap info from capfriendly.com)
Toronto doesn’t have a problem with getting offense from their top four guys Mitch Marner (23 points), John Tavares (22), William Nylander (21), and Auston Matthews (21).
