Barley Risotto and Kimchi: A Culinary Crossroads| SaltWire #food #cookingshorts #kimchiBUFFALO — That Brad Treliving got months ahead of July 1 and signed Simon Benoit to a three-year extension on Friday should have come as a surprise to no one.
With the Benoit signing, the Leafs have four defencemen — Morgan Rielly, Jake McCabe, Conor Timmins and Benoit — under contract for 2024-25. Timothy Liljegren is headed for restricted free agency. Four others, including Mark Giordano, TJ Brodie, Joel Edmundson and Ilya Lyubushkin, will be unrestricted free agents this summer.
So there’s no chance Treliving is going to run everyone back. Of the group of four D-men who are going to be unrestricted, Edmundson, perhaps, would stand the best chance of being re-signed. There’s certainly no guarantee of that, though, and it has to have crossed the minds of a few observers that Liljegren and the Leafs could go their separate ways, via trade, in the summer.
The Benoit contract, with an average annual value of $1.35 million US, was a tidy bit of business for Treliving and it gives the player some security that was deserving.
