I don't know why.

A guy who - really - before this year playing with Matthews & Marner was probably projected to be a career AHLer with a few cups of coffee in the NHL gets 24 million dollars and job security until he's 33. To be honest, I wouldn't sign this if I were the Leafs. A 27 year old who really only became a decent player at 26 isn't a sure thing to keep up a 60 point season until he's 33.... but it keeps his cap hit down.
