David Kämpf Reportedly Considering Contract Termination with Maple Leafs
Thirty-year-old checking center David Kämpf has two years left on his $2.4 million per year contract with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Despite this, he has not played for the team recently. According to people within the organization, his absence is unrelated to effort or performance but rather a result of salary cap constraints.
While Kämpf’s cap hit appears reasonable, Toronto’s recent extension with Scott Laughton suggests the team may not see Kämpf as part of its long-term plans. This situation has fueled speculation that Kämpf could choose to terminate his current contract and test free agency.
“His absence has nothing to do with performance or attitude — only the cap situation.”
If Kämpf becomes an unrestricted free agent, several teams, including the Boston Bruins, may show interest. Kämpf has built a strong NHL reputation after going undrafted, spending five solid seasons with Chicago, and playing a vital role in the Czech national team’s 2024 World Championship gold medal run.
Author’s Summary
David Kämpf may seek a contract termination with Toronto due to cap issues, possibly leading to interest from Boston and other teams eager for his defensive reliability and experience.
