I swear to god if Matthews ends up in Arizona it's gonna be a same kind of deal Kylian Mbappe got from PSG in soccer.

Basically - you get everything you could possibly want and maybe more than that.

Problem is that PSG can do that because they have no cap.

I think @justaboss was alluding more to the fact that Mbappes contract explicitly states that he is allowed some degree of input in PSG’s coaching hires and transfer targets, which is an absurd amount of power held by a football player.

Wonder if thats legal, I was trying to find it but couldn't get anything. Miami just lost a 1st and second in the NFL draft for a similar things with some players and coaches.

They’ve been the bane of my existence as a Leaf fan but pretty cool to see two guys who still have game left stay with the franchise. Interesting to see how Zacha will fit in

What’s also surprising is Bruce Cassidy is fired and all of a sudden David Krejci moves back, Jake DeBrusk takes back his trade request and Patrice Bergeron hinted at retirement and comes back 🧐

Dickinson + Lazar tax.
Also, EP40 wasn’t considered a C in Travis’s gradings.
Honestly surprised Canucks didn’t end up in a lower tier.

Pettersson was considered a LW. JT was a centre.

True, good catch.
My reading comprehension nowhere near as good as I thought it seems.
