Thread: The real crunch begins
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Zwui21</b></div><div>1) Vas won't be signed to a 8 years contract and won't get 10M AAV. Expect his AAV to be in the 7.2-8M ballpark.
2) Killorn M-NTC will kick in July 1st 2020, he'll be traded to free up 4.45M.
3) No way in hell we'd sign Joseph to a 3.2M contract. He can be a useful player, but he's not worth that kind of money on a bridge. He's the most expendable and replaceable of the 2020 RFAs, if needed we'll move him in exchange of some draft picks/prospects. We got plenty of ELC, middle six talent coming up from Syracuse.
4) Cirelli will get that kind of AAV only if this season he goes over 65 points, otherwise he'll be way cheaper, in the 3.6-3.9M ballpark. Even if he goes nuts this upcoming season I don't see him getting more than 4.5M. Lucky for us he's in his contract year and contrary to Point even if he goes crazy he won't have another good productive season to back his asks up.
5) Paquette is a 4th line center. Anywhere over 1.5M is likely gonna be a no-go for BriseBois. 2.75M would be a moronic number to pay for him. Also, we won't sign him to more than a 2 years, as the pipelines from Syracuse are getting hot. If his asks are that high he'll be traded and replaced by Verhaeghe. If not he'll be signed to a 2 years contract and probably moved next summer.
6) If Palat craps the bed this season too, expect BriseBois to ask him to waive his NTC next summer.</div></div>

So with those comments I went back and followed your plan.. you can fit them under the cap but just by a bit.. if any salaries come in higher there would need to be more subtractions

Thread: Moving forward
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jack_</b></div><div>Mcquaid is awful and that's an 8 year contract for marner. He isnt better then stone, kucherov or Aho. Especially for 5 years he should be making the same or less the 8.5</div></div>

IMO the Aho contract sets the standard for Marner.. Marner statistically was 14 points better than Aho. I see a 9.5 million contract for him considering the fact that he has been Toronto's leading point producer the past two seasons. IMO I also see anywhere from 3, 5 or 8 years.. It all depends what the two sides agree to obviously. Who ever thought Matthews would take 5 years or even Aho for that matter. He is worth more money than Nylander and could get Matthews money if not for the Aho contract.

As for McQuaid, who needs anything spectacular from your 5-6 pairing other than playing smart in the defensive zone and adding some toughness which Toronto has shown to be missing the past couple of years. Looking at the top 4, there will not be a great deal of ice time for the 5-6 guys anyway IMO
