2026-27 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion | Official: Sundin & Chayka to lead front office

I have great news everybody! This team, that just doesn't seem good enough, it will be the same team next year cuz everybody on the roster is signed through next season and with Marchenko's extension in place there is almost no room to add anyone of consequence to the roster next season and they are almost already capped out!

Chayka really screwed himself and mismanaged this thing. He has left himself no wiggle room to make changes and the few tradable pieces he has have little value to other teams. I was excited about this team, and I'm not sure where this goes, but it's starting to look bad fast.

There could be internal improvement from McKenna, Cowan, and Danford. I also hold out hope that someone like Holinka or Koblar could make the jump sooner rather than later.

Also the cap is going to jump again. The tagging rule is just bad right now because they haven't set the new cap value. That can't be done until the end of the season.

And if the Leafs have a set roster and open cap space, maybe they could get creative, but I think most teams will have space next year.
