I have been championing that for a while but nobody else seems to wanna agknowledge that possibility. To me that seems like the logical thing to do.
then once his 1 year deal expires Tavares comes off the books. you give that money to Nylander, you use the cap increase that year for Marner and bobs your uncle.... I really think this is the best way to go about it IMO. The only way that works though is if Matthews takes a team friendly deal because if the team has to give Matthews 14.5M Nylanders going to want 10-10.5 I think if Matthews leaves money on the table Nylander will be more likely to.

I'm just thinking 1 year deal if Tre buys out Murray he can convince Nylander that the $2 million buyout hit will force Nylander to take a pay cut but for the 2025 season that $2 Murray buyout becomes Nylander's raise.

Plus Nylander's agent would probably love to see Mathews, Marner, JT, Aho etc... pay checks, rather than signing first.

I dont think hes gunna convince Nylander to take less money cause they have to buyout murray. He will only take less if Matthews and Marner take less. This Leafs team is in the perfect position to build a Dynasty. I dont get it. With all the extra brand advertisments they get in Toronto they should be ok to take a mil or two less on each contract to try to win.

FOr instance I know this wont happen but what if Matthews signs a 8 yearx 12.75M deal. Marner signs a 8year 12.6M deal , Nylander takes 8 year x 9.5M deal .. This team would be SET for the next 8 years and would dominate come the 3rd 4th 5th years of those contracts with the cap increase.... I know it wont happen but that is probably what it would take for toronto to finally win a cup.

Don't think he would. But the bigger problem with roster is thinking some of players are ready for big minutes in the NHL.
Bertuzzi...six years starting at the age 29, no thank you. And really does any team want to sign Nylander to a long term deal at age 29 when this one year deal expires.

If Nylander is older, wouldn't it make more sense for Matthews for to take a 1 year deal, especially given that Matthews will be the eventual leader of the team.

I've thought about this as well. Like try to get him to take 1x$9M then re-up in a couple years when he sees that others have taken a discount. If he doesn't like their prices he can leave at that point and at 28 could still get 8*$10M somewhere else.

I really dont even think its 9M if its a 1 year deal. If its a 1 year deal im thinking its going to be somewhere in the low 8's maybe even 8M.

I think if youre going 2-3 years itll be around 9M the final price. But only a 1 year deal I could see in the lower 8's , maybe 8.25M

The lower amount of years the lower the cap hit. So lets just do some assuming here. Toronto went to Nylander and Said we want to sign you long term. we want an 8 year deal. Nylander comes back and says ok if you want an 8 year deal its going to have to be 8x10-10.5M+. Team says. Thats too much so they start working backwards from
there.
Team comes back with a 6-7year deal can assume that would be in the 9.5-9.75M of Nylanders asking price.
Team comes back with a 4-5 year deal , gutta assume thats around 9.25M
Team------ 3 year deal around 9Mil.
Te----------2 year deal 8.5-8.75M
T-------------1 year deal 8-8.25M

Thats how Im looking at the breakdown for Nylanders contract and where I believe hes going to fall for however many years.
