The Toronto Maple Leafs have had a perfect off-season so far: no bad contracts given!

Jokes aside, the Toronto Maple Leafs have several free-agents on their own roster to deal with before they even begin to think about adding players or making trades or adding to the roster.

The Leafs are clearly sticking with the main core of their team, but if for no other reason than the salary cap, they are going to have to make some tough decisions.

For example: Ilya Mikheyev is a PK weapon who added a nice component to the team and made them that much tougher to play against last season. But how much is he worth?

Do the Leafs gamble that he has more to give? Do they dare let risking him walk? And what about Pierre Engvall?

The biggest question of all is clearly what to with Jack Campbell, who was the NHL’s best goalie in the calendar year of 2021, but who was also ranked 69th out of 75 goalies, over three years, in saving high danger shots.

Which Campbell is the real deal and how much is it worth to find out?

The game is simple: we list out the Leafs Free Agent, and we say what we think the team should do with him, while you play along at home.
