I’m having trouble pointing out a creative contract that was advantageous to the Leafs that was for an above average player.
Most of the creativity was for eking out lots of up front value for the Leafs stars without much if any commensurate scaling down of cap hit; unless Nylander was looking for 14M and the structure talked him down to 11ish (which was reportedly more like Treliving was asking for 9, Nylander asked for 10, and then waited until it became 11+)

If Pridham was just a cap guy: the current CBA is basically 20 years old now. Pridham had a massive edge over the the rest of the field originally but you don't need to be a genius to understand how it's calculated anymore. The Canes literally found a guy on twitter to be their cap expert.
If Pridham was a hockey ops guy: well he's been here for 12 years with little team success. It's not unreasonable for both sides to just feel a change of scenery was necessary. Pridham will have a future in the league but guys like him come and go.

2 assistant GMs down, 3 remain: Hayley Wickenheiser (Player Development), Darryl Metcalf (Hockey Research & Development), Ryan Hardy (Minor League Ops & GM, Toronto Marlies).
Metcalf's an odd one, the Leafs should have the best and biggest analytics team in the league and even when Dubas was in charge it's tough to really pinpoint a number of moves that you could make a reasonable argument they had a say in that were home runs. But we really have no idea what goes on beyond those doors.
Hardy's someone I could see rising up even further into the organization. I almost kind of get the feeling that when the Dubas to Treliving shift happened his influence probably got limited to just running the Marlies.
