Thread: Leafs without Reilly in 2022-2023
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Janasazi</b></div><div>That is true. In 2 years Matthews and Nylander expire and then a year after that Tavares and Marner expire. It's gonna be a colossal mess for whatever GM we have. The team will probably end up being a lot different from what we know now.

It would be a lot more advantageous if we got Sandin signed for a long term deal given the storm that's gonna come when the Big 4 deals expire.

If I had to guess what will happen with the Big 4:
- Matthews will be extended and Nylander will probably be traded
- Marner will be extended and Tavares will either be traded or accept a much smaller deal

Although that's a dangerous topic to bring up because it'll lead to a big debate.</div></div>

Yup that's gonna be a tremendous job for who ever.

Robertson will also need a deal at the same year as Matthews and Nylander.

If on top of that Sandin needs a deal after his bridge, he is gonna ask for a big pay raise if he indeed becomes the #1 def of the Leafs.

Conclusion : I really hope that Sandin signs for 6+years LOL

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Janasazi</b></div><div>Sandin is looking really good now and it would be good if we make that kind of deal happens. However, sometimes players take a bridge deal to bet on themselves hoping to get a higher payoff later (like the Pettersson, Barzal or Laine deals). From what I see of Sandin, I think he's that kind of person that would take a bridge deal hoping that he can get a longer term payout.</div></div>

Totally agree with you! only thing is from a Leafs perspective, in 2-3 years the big 4 need to sign new contracts, which will see an increase in at least 3 of them. Sandin in three years is projected to be #1 defenseman in my opinion. Wonder if enough money will remain for him or what is happenning to Rielly right now will happen to Sandin in 3 years..

My thought it more : If morgan leaves, the next 2 years we have more cap space, so let's us it to maybe overpay a bit sandin but then we have 2 years of cheap deal for him, would think both sides win
