Leafs pass on both

If your being serious then wtf are you doing

Only if Dougie were out for season…otherwise no space, no lineup spot.

lmfaoooo do not bring Matthews name up in a trade unless it includes McDavid or mackinnon. literally no one else

Devils accept if and only if Dougie is out for the season

13.5 mill, only 4 years of term.

Hughes, Mcdavid, Mack, Makar, Bedard>>

You could even put guys like Fox, Stutzle, Heiskanen, etc in

no, yes, yes, no, no (although obviously, if this were another team, I would say yes to bedard as he will clearly be better than Matthews in the future... just obviously not a guy I'd take over Matthews if we're talking the next 2-3 years)

and then i think this goes without saying, but guys like fox, stutzle (?), and heiskanen are quite obviously a resounding no

How have leafs fans still not realized the value of term and cap space.

Jack hughes was better than Matthews last year, he's been better this year, is 4 years younger, and based on a rising cap and the contracts matthews demands (probably 15+ mill on his next one), will make 39 million dollars less than Matthews over the next 7 years.

Makar has been better this year, a much better playoff performer, younger, and again will make 16 million dollars less over the next 4 years.

Again Stutzle has 8 years of term, much younger and improving, and will likely make 43 million dollars less over the next 8 years.

Heiskenan again younger, 6 years of term, top 3 dman in hockey and will likely make 29 million dollars less over the next 6 years.

Fox again younger, 6 years of term, top 2 dman in hockey and will likely make 24 million dollars less over the next 6 years

Some leafs fans do realize the value....some are blind. This is Matthews 8th year with the leafs, hes the highest paid player in the league and hasn't won ****. I would rather a cup over a rocket richard trophy
