Toronto Maple Leafs Offseason Releases

[Deleted]

Leafs are releasing the following UFA's

David Backes
Josh Gorges
Colin Wilson
Antii Niemi
Curtis McElhinney

All are UFAs and ineligible for resign. Just want to dump them off my fantrax roster to see where I'm at.

Just noticed they can't be released until the "Draft" is completed. Pretty sure that's a one button fix since our draft is offline.

try it again.. Went in and clicked to allow drops before draft

I'm just confirming with Leafs GM now.....I don't think he is a truly "waiving" these 5 players.  It's more the TOR GM just cleaning up his Fantrax roster in preparation for July 1.

Until confirmation from Jestorx, claim away on these players, but it may be all for naught.

Confirmed. Just releasing UFAs without contracts to clean up my Fantrax roster. I’d like to retain last owner rights when it comes to free agency. I wasn’t sure where to post and should have clarified before posting. My apologies guys.

[Flames GM (Beamer)]

No worries Jestorx.

For all GMs - I'll be removing your players from your Fantrax rosters as June 30th approches.

Claim VOIDED as per Leafs message above. He was not "waiving" the 5 players (hence this posting has been moved to VOIDED CLAIMS).
