6 x 6 was floated as a contract possibility, but no dialogue vs the two parties.
7 year term per some teams at a 6+ million dollar player.
Bob McKenzie said the same thing last week. Said that essentially the leafs chose Patrick Marleau over JVR, and expectation in Toronto front office is that JVR is gone and unless Tyler Bozak is willing to take a hometown discount, he's gone too.

The Leafs must really value Marleau's experience and leadership because JVR>Marleau.
I'm glad. Move on from your UFA's if you have to pay them into their mid 30's (other than superstars). Lots of internal options to fill the hole.

We have a few that are easily capable of putting up 20/20. Not everyt move is zero sum. JVR is a cap casualty, they aren't letting him go because they don't want him.I don't think you have any prospects who will put up 30/30...?
Agreed. And you can't really count on Marleau going forward given his age.The Leafs must really value Marleau's experience and leadership because JVR>Marleau.
