<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Penguins21</b></div><div>Love it!! I agree 100%. That would be The Leafs best available line-up.

I think the best bet is to bury Engvall’s contract in the minors(him being waived exempt too). But if they need that extra 125K or whatever it is against the cap when he’s in the AHL, they are gonna have to put him onto waivers and let someone claim him.

If no one took Tyler Johnson for a 5th round pick or even for free. It would be hard getting a 5th round pick for Engvall(1.2M, 4th line forward). Unless Toronto gave up an asset for a team to take him.</div></div>

Yah the reason no one wanted Tyler Johnson was his contract, idk i guess Engvall fetching a 5th is pretty optimistic but i think there would be teams willing to pay a 6th or 7th on a low risk player like him. He would be an upgrade over several players in the Oilers bottom 6 imo.

Thread: Marner not going anywhere
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CameronLeafs</b></div><div>if the leafs were going to pay him 10 million over 3 years the deal would also likely be done by now. Without buying UFA years, Marner's contract decreases in value significantly. While I think 7.5 is low, 8 x 3 is realistic imo.
You have to realize the leafs know marners camp set his value through talking with the media. Without the media hype, and marners dad and agent saying 11 million, people would be saying if the leafs are only getting 3 years, that 8 million is far too much.
The thing is, 4 years is off the table because he walks right to UFA. 5 years is very very unlikely because then Marner, Matthews and Willy are all UFA's at the same time. that leaves 6, where he would get 10+, or 2 or 3 where the number likely starts with an 8 or very very low 9.</div></div>

I agree i think 10 is too much i was just trying to show that they can make it work with all this offer sheet talk. I think the number on a 3 year deal would START at somewhere around like you said low 9's and Marner's camp will counter with a higher number I would imagine. 3 x 9.2? 2 x 8? who knows what's going to happen.

Thread: cut the mf cheque baby
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jangle29</b></div><div>It's not an argument. MacKinnon has show nothing in his career so far playing by himself like Matthews does right now. If you gave Matthews Rantanen he would score 60+ goals.
Not to mention Matthews is better on advanced statistic and different goal patterns. But you can believe that you want.
I also love MacKinnon, I'm from his home town, been watching him for 10+ years and I know how good he is</div></div>

You should be watching closer instead of judging every player on their advanced stats and goal patterns etc. Rantanen was nothing this year when Mackinnon wasn't in the lineup, you have it backwards. If Mackinnon didn't play this year Rantanen would probably have had like 40 points. Matthews has had Nylander, Kapanen, Johnsson its not like he's playing with AHLers.
