Maple Leafs Rumors: Toronto Could Move One Of Two Players To Sign Jack Roslovic
Frank Seravalli reported the Leafs are “very much in contention” and still in contact with Roslovic’s camp, though nothing is close. Elliotte Friedman has similarly noted since July that Toronto would need to clear room before any signing becomes realistic.
Recent chatter around potential trades involving David Kämpf or Calle Järnkrok fits that picture.

Jack Roslovic to Maple Leafs: where the cap stands
Toronto’s available space sits a shade under 2 million dollars, which likely is not enough to land Roslovic without another move. That matches up with reports that the Leafs are shopping depth forwards to free money and a roster spot.
Both Kämpf and Järnkrok carry 10-team no-trade lists, which can slow the process, but interest should pick up as camps near.
Calle Jarnkrok had a bit higher TOI/GP and a much higher Power Score. Also, he had 1.59 PTS/60 at 5 on 5 while David Kampf recorded 1.09 PTS/60. Also, he is cheaper and has just 1 year on his deal, and he is righty. So, Jarnkrok is a more valuable option although he is older… https://t.co/ow6ilhPaH1 pic.twitter.com/V2PjOZrtOp

Roslovic is coming off a 22-goal, 39-point season and remains one of the top UFAs on the board. Toronto can view him as a flexible middle-six add who can skate with top talent and push internal competition among new arrivals.
If the Leafs can free up space, namely by moving one of Kampf or Jarnkrok, there's a good chance they are able to bring Roslovic in.
