Calgary's woes continue as key players seem disinterested in remaining with the team. This unsettling news comes despite the dismissal of Darryl Sutter as coach.

It appears that Noah Hanifin, Elias Lindholm, and Tyler Toffoli are all unenthusiastic about suiting up for the Flames in the upcoming season.

Player Transfers: The Possibilities

This situation has sparked speculation about the players' future, particularly regarding where they might end up playing. Hanifin and Lindholm will be free agents, whereas Toffoli still has a year left in his contract.

A potential trade involving Toffoli could be on the horizon for the Flames, potentially fetching a significant return for the forward.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are one team that should be intrigued by this possibility.

Potential Trade Scenarios: Bringing Toffoli to Toronto

To envision how Toffoli could end up in Toronto, we have devised two potential trade scenarios.

- Maple Leafs Receive: Tyler Toffoli (50% Salary Retention)

- Flames Receive: Nick Robertson & 2024 3rd-Round Pick (NYI)

This presents a straightforward trade-off. The Flames would retain half of Toffoli's salary, and in return, receive Nick Robertson and a future pick.

A More Complex Idea

- Maple Leafs Receive: Tyler Toffoli (50% Salary Retention) & Dan Vladar

- Flames Receive: Nick Robertson, Bobby McMann, Rights to Erik Källgren & 2024 4th-Round Pick

The second scenario is more intricate. Along with Toffoli, the Leafs would also gain Dan Vladar. This would eliminate their need to sign Ilya Samsonov, allowing the Leafs to allocate their resources elsewhere.

The Price of a Trade: Salary Considerations

Regardless of the scenario, it's clear that the Flames will need to shoulder a portion of Toffoli's salary for the trade to materialize.

This would raise the price of the trade, but the Leafs lack the financial flexibility to fully accommodate Toffoli's salary while executing other planned moves this summer.

Toffoli would undoubtedly bring a wealth of leadership to the Leafs' locker room, yet they cannot afford to compromise all of their cap space to secure him.
