Chicago is paying $21M for two guys, one of which *only* put up 58 points last year. All three of the Leafs in question surpassed that total as rookies. Makes the extra $4M not look so bad to me
That said, the investment needs to pay off. If the Leafs are going to put the cart before the horse and pay these guys coming out of their ELC's it would be nice to see at least one Cup to show for it at the end of the day. I'm not going to expect Chicago or Pittsburgh levels of success, but I would love to see one, just ONE, and the pain of being a Leafs fan for the past 20 years will subside.
Just making them all feel better.

You think it’s that crazy to believe that Matthews is in a different class(superstar) than the other two(star) will be?

Nylander is 10 times better than Horvat or anyone on that bottom dwellling garbage Vancouver team.

If that was the point you actually were trying to make maybe lol. You posted a video of him taking a head shot and called him soft.

Horvat is not on the same planet as Nylander.
You clearly have not seen Willy play.

Jim, shouldn't you be busy trying to trade your 1st for Mike Green or something? Get off HF and make your playoff contender better man lets go.

Jim Benning is the everyman. He is the hope that lives inside of us all, that voice that says “why not me?” or “yes I can” when we are faced with something we do not think we can attain, or we are not qualified for.
In a way, we are all Jim Benning.
If Eriksson is worth 6m a year to the Canucks , gee I guess Nylander should get about 18m

I am pretty sure that Toronto attempting to sign Nylander to a contract worth $18 million per year would violate the terms of the current collective bargaining agreement. The contracted would get rejected by the league office and not registered.
Yes, I know, one player can't make more than 20% of the cap. Did Benning know when they signed Eriksson the Canucks did not have spend right to the cap?

The Loui Eriksson contract can be attributed to a little expression you may or may not have heard about yet.
“You only live once”, or simplified, “YOLO”.
You're right (from Ericsson's view). But thinking Canucks fans are dying just a little each year for next five years when they see a 24 point forward (I think I'm correct) is making 6m a year. YODO (You only die often)

I think you are being a little bit extreme if you believe that Eriksson will settle in around the 25 point mark for the duration of his contract.

The Canucks should keep him to shelter there kids in the years to come. When the twins go he could be Captain and help the young guys become pros and take some of the burden that is sure to land on Horvat. If he does that he can earn his 6 mil, do the Nucks really care about Cap space for the next few years? He probably has more value to them than to anyone else.

Would love to see a Montreal offer sheet of
9-10 million X 7 on Nylander. His contract value goes up every day.
Do the Leafs match ?? Of course!
That’s the point. Smart management against a competitor.
