$12mil/8 years gets it done? Just a wild guess. I assume he will want somewhere around Tavares cash.

He should get more IMO and at this rate will. Early, I know. But I felt that before the season started. Matthews is the real deal.

Should have tried to get it done this summer IMO

If he puts up 45+ goals, 95+ points he's justified in asking ~11.5-12M.

I've said it many times, Tavares was a huge signing, but Matthews is the Leafs' young superstar franchise player. I was hoping they don't forget that.

Man I'd love to see his stock continue to rise. But it might squeeze a contract like Nylander's out of the picture. Unless they get exceedingly creative. I don't know how signing bonuses work against the cap etc. But someone may need to go.

Matthews is destroying the "possessed" Toews in the head to head.

Uh, Toews had 67% CF that period and Matthews had 36% CF. Im not sure how Matthews is dominating by never having the puck, but ok.

I like Toronto as a team, grew up playing on the same youth club as Sundin (Sollentuna), and he always showed up when he could to help us with practice. But my god, Leafs fans are making it hard for me.

Matthews clearly picked up it towards the end of the period and helped get his team back in a game that looked lost.
cf% over 1 period? chill dude

pretty sure matthews knows the more he takes, the less of a chance he will have to win a cup.
kid already has scotiabank as a major sponsor. he will take 11mil x 8 to match the aav of JT.

but yeah this is HFboards so cue the "wont take a hometown discount" posters.
apparently only boston,tampa,san jose etc has guys willing to do that. everyone in toronto is in it for the money

Why don't you tell the other Leafs fan to chill saying he's dominating the head to head then... since he isn't by the numbers.
