Realistically Tavares is in the $8-10m per year range, but why not overpay him for 1 year while we can afford it with Matthews & Marner on their entry level deals. The extra money offsets the extra term/security Tavares would get elsewhere and gives him (and the Leafs) a legit shot at the cup.

You can't compare Tavares playing with Okposo/Ladd vs what he'd be like playing with Marner/Nylander. And a center group of Matthews/Tavares/Kadri easily becomes one of if not the best in the league.
