Kampf’s contract runs through 2026–27 with a $2.4 million cap hit. Terminating the deal would forfeit roughly $4 million in salary but could free him to pursue a new NHL role, which is seemingly what he wants after not enjoying the start to this season in Toronto.

Bobby McMann scored the go-ahead goal in the third period Monday as the Toronto Maple Leafs wiped out a three-goal deficit to defeat the visiting Pittsburgh Penguins 4-3. Pittsburgh led 3-0 after two periods before Toronto scored three goals in a span of 3:24 early in the third.
