No one with performance bonuses is making the team this year.

On a somewhat related note, there's a chance that by not missing like a month of the season Marner just ruined Jeremy Bracco's NHL career.

They've taken their time with BraccAttacc. Leafs are really making a habit of developing their talent well.

Siegel with the handy list of all the lines from day 1:

Johnsson-Matthews-Nylander
Kapanen-Brooks (Tavares)-Bracco
Mikheyev-Kerfoot-Petan
Moore-Spezza-Aberg

Gonna be kinda interesting to see what happens with these lines now that Marner is here. Both Kapanen and Bracco seemed like place-holders for him. Babcock has already said he'd hope Kapanen would be with Kerfoot, so he drops down there. Does Bracco stay and play his off-wing? Doubt it. Does Petan get bumped up... also doubt it. Maybe Kapanen stays there on his off-wing until Hyman gets back.
 
Bracco can?t play off wing. His thing is the mohawk stride to open up options, which does nothing on the left side.

Kapanen is sort of being groomed to be the new Hyman (who will be a cap casualty after this season).

The lads are soaking up the sweet Newfoundland heritage.

Would be great to have this young core settled in and producing. Can have it for years.
Johnsson(4yrs)-Matthews(5yrs)-Nylander(5yrs)
Kapanen(3yrs)-Tavares(6yrs)-Marner(6yrs)

Unless the cap goes up drastically the Leafs are going to have a hard time keeping those players together after this season. 

Right now we have Morgan Rielly under contract at 5M on defense.  Everyone else is a UFA/RFA and if the cap stays the same we have 15 million in cap space with 11 forwards, 1 defenseman and 1 goaltender signed.  Trades are going to have to come after this season.

They'll have to go cheap on D. Next year no Muzzin, Barrie, Ceci. Replaced by Liljegren, Sandin, Hollowell.

It's actually concerning when you look at things moving forward.

They've got to hope for some of these younger ELC guys to be able to walk into significant roles, and quick.

I'm surprised not to see Agostino.  He was the only one of the depth UFAs signed to 2 years instead of 1.

I'm a little more surprised that Shore isn't getting a bigger chance.

I was expecting Shore too.  Do we have enough PK forwards in the lineup?
 
People have mentioned trying to collect a goalie on waivers. But we are so close to the cap that even if I guy who makes 800K becomes available, we?ll have trouble acquiring him won?t we? (Hutch at $700K)
