Well I’m looking at a undervalued Pesce contract

Probably tanev too. Both get more elsewhere

Lilj probably gets more also.

Understandable for Pesce but for Tanev I think he takes a hometown discount plus he will turn 35 next season so I doubt he can demand much more

Everyone takes a hometown discount right?

When your from Toronto yes lol

Name them…

Happy CF Anniversary.

Like two other commenters, I think Brett Pesce gets more as a UFA than what he is making now (adjusted for inflation).

Gio spezza could say Tavares cause he could have got 13 million from the sharks

Spezza
Giordano
Thornton
Simmonds

All guys past their prime who took league min or close to it.

Not predicting that Tanev will do the same as there figures to be decent demand for him this offseason..but simply answering your question

Yes, when he’s 39 and barely a 6D he will take that hometown discount. Just like Gio

This all sounds amazing, seems to have worked out well for all.

Not Jarheads fault. After you sign the big four to half the salary there is only peanuts left. 🍻 to hoping on a lot of hometown discounts

lol....throw out a troll question...receive a fact based response...reply back with sarcasm. Live your best life there, bud

lol - I’ll just go find some players to take a hometown discount to play for the Canes.

yes...I hear the hockey history is rich in Carolina. (see...I can do sarcasm, too).

Since you're apparently the GM....I'd worry about getting that head coach of yours re-signed before a team with deeper pockets lures him away

would never try to compete with Canada, especially Toronto, regarding hockey history - that would be foolish. However, quite a bit of arrogance comes from Leafs fans regarding home town discounts and assuming non-traditional hockey markets aren’t as good as they are.

so you're interpreting leaf fans' "hopefulness" that a veteran player might sign for less to come end his career with us as "arrogance"? Sounds like a you problem.

I wasn’t suggesting it would be at a good time or that ut would benefit them in anyway. My comment had shades of sarcasm.

You have to hope at that point or have a GM like Dubas that can find the bunting type deals

I have many problems, I can attest. One of which is I’m just jealous that hometown discounts can’t be a plan for the Hurricanes. Such a poverty franchise we can’t afford to pay our coach. I’m just going to go watch college hoops.

can't argue with your rich history there

That and my entire mortgage is probably less than you pay just in property taxes. I can play golf 12 months out of the year. I can be at the beach or mountains in 2 hours.

We make hometown discounts, we don’t assume them.

see....the hypocrisy here is that you just made a lot of assumptions about my quality of life compared to yours
