I'd say a rival GM will offer Kapanen a contract that may have both $$$, and term than what the Leafs may be comfortable with.So Leafs aren't resigning Kapanen before July 1st and will only sign him to a discount not to a fair contract? I don't understand your logic here.
There is an NMC in the contract but I believe it's only in the last year.I don't think it's a deal for either player or the team. It doesn't solve the teams problem with impeding contracts for their other players and getting it to fit into the cap.
It puts puts far too much risk on Matthews which he probably doesn't deserve. There is no NMC for Matthews which I find is odd for one of the leagues top talent. Clearly to me, the tea leaves are reading as if there is a promise from the GM about maximizing cup contention.
But, Matthews will probably learn that GM's word is about as good as a Marine recruiter. I don't see Marleau willing to accept a trade unless they win the cup this year.
Nylander will probably be traded this off-season. Something that will likely bother Matthews. I just don't know if the Leafs can get as much from a Nylander deal considering they are letting him rot on the bottom 6.

The CBA only allows NTC or NMC in a players UFA years. So just year 5 can be trade protected.
