    If Matthews comes with an 8 year x 13 million AAV contract I think the jackets do it

    Columbus says no instantly

    Marner blocks the trade

    We have no interest in buying a year of Nylander at that cost. Terry isn't an option, and Gibson has already declined going to Toronto once.

    Well give you Strome, our 24 2nd, and one of Perrault or Pastujov, our organizations top winger prospects. Nylander comes with a 78-80 million 8 year extension.

    Only the way the Jets say yes to that deal is if the LAFFS take Stanley, Schmidt, etc... and retain on Marner.

    Marner is good, but his contract is too much.

    Leafs are in a cup window, a 2nd round pick isn't needed. And a prospect 4 years away also makes no sense. So this trade is essentially Nylander for Strome which is a laughable offer.

    Swap the 2nd for a 50% retained Henrique then.

    You're not getting a member of the young core for Nylander in a trade with Anaheim, if that's the demand in the trade, we'll take our chances that Willy goes to free agency and leverage our cap space to be the highest bidder.

    It’s great because Anaheim can just try and get Nylander as a free agent next off season

    Gibson says no to Toronto, already has done that

    We would rather keep Terry and his 7.25ish cap hit to Nylanders 10ish to resign — wild when we have the chance to have them both next year though wink
