Even if he doesn't stack up to the Perennial Norris hype TOR fans give him... He isn't going to accept that contract. Look at what Nurse just got.

***EDIT*** ALTHOUGH...could you imagine a team giving an offersheet of 2 years $4.1M? TOR would get a 2nd round pick.

Why would Sandin do that? He’s barely played and a 2 year bridge walks him into at least another 20 mil on a long term deal.

If history has taught me anything it's that when Toronto signs a young player to term based on unrealized potential/to get ahead of the cap for future years it triggers a new pandemic. This one transaction could lead to an outbreak of Gorilla pox or something

Actually I like the thought of a Sandin long term signing. There isn't cap for Niederreiter. Those RFAs aren't taking a pay reduction...they would be UFAs getting better deals elsewhere.
