First!

Also, this is still a shitshow

 

[Leafs87]

Holy

 

[Lahey]

So what’s the latest buzz

 

[Pens x]

Duba is in a tough spot; he will get ridiculed no matter what happens

 

[Schenn]

Kyle Dubas ain't no one's bitch!

 

[Tatar Shots]

I can't believe sitting is actually a realistic option at this point. How do they not, at minimum, work out a 1 year deal?

 

[Hischier and Hughes]

Dubas lettibg this get to the deadline

Rookie mistakes thatll cost Toronto big time

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

Dubas is dropping the ball !!!

Noob

 

[zharkenby]

I cannot wait for the hf leafs meltdown that’s going to follow here.

That’s why you don’t hire some random dork that nobody respects as your gm!

 

[Babooch]

Offer sheets aside an RFA's true market is their value compared only to the players on their own team. Until UFA his worth is compared to Tavares Matthews and Marner in the confines of the Leafs cap situation. Not about respect and not the Leafs fault (well maybe Shanahan!), it is the CBA causing this conflict and he seems to want out of TO which is his right.

1 year deal is prob like 3 million lol could maybe make more overseas.

Sitting just further pushes his value down.

 

[AngelDuck]

He will be signed and then traded for a dman in a few weeks

 

[The Podium]

Ya, that darn nerd. The only respect he gets is from other nerds like JT.

 

[Aoko]

He will not sign. The best part is Leafs fans will completely turn on Nylander, calling him greedy.

And he might be! But there's an equal chance that Dubas is low balling him in order to make the contracts work. Leafs don't have that kind of status just yet to get away with giving guys super cap-friendly deals.

 

[DFC]

So who's the frontrunner?

 

[Flipwon]

Without any inside knowledge of negotiations hot takes like these are complete nonsense

What does that even mean?

It the Toronto Maple Leafs man!? You know, the team that's been around with the Habs for over 100 years lol

 

[Leafs87]

Because 1 year deal means all three Marner Matthews and Nylander need new contracts next year. Also gives him arbitration

 

[CanuckCity]

Why are so many people blaming Dubas but not nylander?

Or Nylander's denial of the reality of it...

 

[zharkenby]

Ya, that darn nerd. The only respect he gets is from other nerds like JT.

Oh come on man, I could’ve gotten JT to sign there if I was the gm. Absolutely laughable narrative that Dubas had any influence on him signing there.

[LivingRentFree]

Dubas is playing this perfectly. Well done
