Did the Rangers and Kings get to negotiate settlements when a new team was moved into their areas? Why do the Leafs seemingly have way more clout?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the Kings and Rangers got some area protected money. The Leafs would also need to get money for their territorial rights. The thing is the Leafs no longer have a veto to stop expansion into their area and can't set the price.
