Is the makings of a Cup contender?

Below is an updated list of Leaf contracts for next season. As you can see, John Ferguson has been busy locking up last year's team and is quickly approaching next season's salary cap. With Sundin and Colaiacovo still to be signed the Leafs will be at about $42 million. Unrestricted free agents are Perreault, Peca, O'neill and Aubin. Replacing them will bring the Leafs right up to the cap which is expected to be $48 million likely without any real improvement over last season.
