With the signing of Tyler Ennis and the trade of Matt Martin, Cap Friendly is showing the Leafs with 11 forwards under contract who were NHL-roster players at the end of last year. Unfortunately one of those is Nathan Horton, so to figure out the actual cap hit of the roster right now, we need to add in a few more players.
The first two are obvious: William Nylander and Andreas Johnsson, and I’ve used a very generous over-estimation of nine million for those two before, so we can stick with that.
