We have A LOT of good young talent we’ll be adding to the roster

Signing Nylander to a contract like that isn’t a good idea

And that trade for Zadorov is a MASSIVE overpay
If u think that has ANY chance of happening, idk what to tell ya- other than it’s crazy to think we’d give that up for a LD when it’s already a position of strength- not to mention, Zadorov is a UFA after this season

People thinking Mitts will sign for $5mm:

Over the past 82 team games played, on 5v5:

Mitts 49pts (t-19th among all Fs, w/ Tage, Stutzle, Robertson)
Mitts 38 assists ( only Marner (40) and Pettersson (39) have more)

Oh, and FYI, Nylander has 52 points in that same time period.

So, $11.5mm for 52 points and $5mm for 49. Hmm.

Except that’s not the ONLY metric that’ll be used to determine their contracts

For sure. TOR has its own special way of paying players.

That’s not what i meant
Mitts might sign for over $5mil, but he won’t cost anything close to Nylander either
