Toronto Maple Leafs: Matt Dumba Signs for Less than John Klingberg
The Toronto Maple Leafs have missed out on a cheap way to improve their blue-line.
Matt Duma has signed with the Arizona Coyotes, and worse, he signed for less than the Toronto Maple Leafs gave John Klingberg.
To be clear, neither player is worth the money they are getting, but Dumba would have been a much better fit.
He signed for $3.9. million and one-year with the Coyotes.
The Leafs gave Klingberg $4.150.
The Toronto Maple Leafs Miss Out on Dumba
When the season starts, John Klingberg will have just turned 31, whereas Dumba just turned 29.
Both players have fallen from being star players a few years ago, and both are at an age where they likely are what they are – which is not very good.
