He was an mvp caliber player 2 seasons ago….last year not so much
You don't stop being an MVP caliber player in 1 year especially when you won it at 24 and are now 25.

That would take him to 32 years old and then reassess the situation for both sides. Perfect…
Treliving said he's keeping the core 4... Shocker
Too stressful for him changing things up right away... Too gun shy after the Tkachuk trade
I'd imagine Leafs fans are pissed off at that after what has been said over the years about their displeasure of not changing things up
It would take him to 30
scenario 1: matthews stays in toronto. Hfboards whine that he is overpaid
scenario 2: toronto trades matthews. Hfboards whine that toronto lost their franchise player
either way hfboards is going to whine because toronto is the centre of the hockey universe
32 actually. (or roughly 31.7 when the final season is over)
He turns 26 in September. The 5 year deal would kick in the following season when he's just turned 27.
Phew. The rest of HFBoards can sleep in peace now knowing that Zegs2sendhelp isn’t going to start liking Matthews. Thank you sir.Phew thought i was going to have to start liking matthews(dare i say root for him) ... but now i can actively root for him to continue his losing ways in Toronto.
Oh I agree they keep AM if they can forsure.. only way they should move him is if he forces their hand like Tkachuk and Duboislol Matthews was never going anywhere regardless so this comment seems odd.
Also funny seeing people trying to spin the Leafs keeping their MVP and multi rocket winner as a bad thing. If he does take 13 that will be a joke with the cap jumping next season if they get anything longer than 4 years I am happy.
Matthews has more rockets in him and more to give. So blessed getting to watch him grow up on my team play through his prime. Arizona or whatever can give him the retirement mistake contract.
Getting down to the wire to have that handshake agreement on the parameters of a new contract. Nmc begins midnight on Friday. Need to agreement basically agreed to for him to sign this weekend.He was on TSN Overdrive and while talking about Nylander he also said that Auston Matthews 100% not going anywhere.
He said that while nobody has officially confirmed the term what he has been able to gather points to a 5 year deal.

Ahhh he comes out of hiding. I believe most fans wanted AM to sign a huge deal with a huge cap hit so he can continue doing what the leafs do best…. Which is lose in the playoffs. Hopefully he gets 14 mill a yearThe only people who thought he would were on here and it was a prayer not reality. Now they will pretend they haven't said he is 100% a goner and instead switch about the contract term or whatever.
Matthews is a maple leaf through his prime years. That feels good.
5 year 60 million. I think that's the number
Hope leafs wouldn't go dumber than that
Good, as expected. Hopefully they overpay for him
He has already left. He is president of hockey operations for the Pittsburgh Penguins.I have it on good authority that Dubas isnt leaving Toronto either.

Who honestly thought Toronto was going to be anything other then what they were last season? Repackage the same thing with a different color bow on top. First or second round loss anyone? I'll buy those odds
