I don't think either are coming back. They have Rielly, Holl, Lilljegren, Sandin signed and Dermott is RFA with 13 million in cap.
A trade for 1 more Dman will likely happen.

Leaf fans hear every year LLeafs are doomed and everyome is leaving. No worry here.

Liljegren and Sandin have played in the AHL all season and both are 5’-11” 185 lbs. Are you replacing two cagey vets with those two?

Did you see Sandin at the World Juniors? He's NHL ready. Brilliant on the power play with tape to tape passes and a lethal shot through traffic.
Sure, he'll do his share of rookie mistakes, kids sometimes forget to play it safe, but hey - I'd want him on my team any day.
Too bad he ended up in Toronto... I still feel sorry for Salming and Sundin never getting a fair shot at a cup.

Somehow he thinks Sandin and Lillegren can't replace a Ceci or Muzzin. Both are fantastic prospects.

Didn’t you say Bracco was a fantastic prospect?
