Disagree $7M represents 10% of a teams cap space and you can't be warring that on 30 year old #3 D with 6 years left on his deal or a one dimensional offensive winger with 7 years at $8M per. Both are horrible contracts paying players past their prime far too much money.
Leafs can get better returns eating $1.5M per on Kessel and $2M per on Dion but that is $3.5 in cap space being tied up in those players for 6-7 more years and they would be on other teams
