Thread: Leafs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>brenfox31</b></div><div>I agree he's a great DFD and I'm willing to say that this is a good idea for the Leafs, I just question whether it is THE BEST idea for the leafs. They could try to get a RHD (which isn't too big a deal, but I prefer it considering our top 5 would all be LH). However, I see your point and I'd say this deal or a similar one is definitely a good idea if we wanna compete now and in the future because his contract is not too bad considering we are getting rid of Zaitzev.
That being said, we would have to sign him to a very similar deal to the one he is on, and IDK if he'd be willing to. We might lose him before next season, and then I question whether moving a long-term piece in Zaitzev (plus two futures) is worth it. I'd much rather get someone with term on a similar cap hit - maybe someone like Tanev (but hopefully less injured)</div></div>

He's got a two year extension that kicks in after this year at 5 million.

Thread: Nylander with bridge, Perf Bonuses paid
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jp_harvey</b></div><div>He wanted big money and settled for a bridge deal. He was reportedly asking for Tarasenko's money/contract as starter (8x7.5M$). TBL has got him for 3 years of cup contenter with him being paid 4.766M instead of 3M$+ more a year. Next, they'll pay him a little less than 2M$ more a year that he was previousky asking (he's now a 100pts scorer!), which is a HUGE win for an organisation. If you can't understand that, I don't think you should comment in here anymore since you clearly lack in hockey management knowledge. Don't mean to be rude, here, it's just the truth.</div></div>

You just said that it was a good thing that they have to pay him $2m more than he was asking. \sure it allowed them to be a contender in the short-term but, in the long-term it doesn't benefit them.
