[KaseMeOutside]

There shouldn't be any way in hell Murray gives him anything more than 2.3

This.

 

[A1LeafNation]

And one remains.

who?

 

[thadd]

Fingers crossed it's 3 years X 4M.
Nylander will fall off of his sofa crying like a baby.

......Ritchie should only get like half that, and his situation really has no bearing on Nylander's at all.

I know and I know.
Idea is Ritchie getting overpaid and Nylander still sitting on the sofa while the Leafs pile up so many goals.
Leafs could easily set a franchise record for goals scored in a season without Nylander this year.

 

[Siludin]

Finally fans of soft lineup teams like Toronto and Vancouver can stop with the trade proposals for a little

Why do the Canucks want TWO Jake Virtanens?

 

[grapes55]

ok
That's why Leafs fans nonstop are obsessed with getting Ritchie. You have the softest team in league history so it's understandable you want Ritchie and Manson

this ain't close to it chief

What a strange thing to say in a thread about Ritchie signing.

You have no idea how deep that rabbit hole goes.

Spooky. I was just about to guess this is gonna be a 3x2.3 contract.

 

[HanSolo]

Perfectly said

 

[wraparound]

3 years @ $1.7m

Seems like someone fits in perfectly with leafs fans

Signed players are easier to trade.

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

but anderson is a 4th round pick 6 years ago and Ritchie a 10 overall 4 years ago he probably think he as a much higher ceiling

Draft status should have no bearing on how much money you make outside ELC's. If a GM gives xtra money for where you were drafted 4 years ago he should be out of a job.

 

[Masch78]

3y at 1.75m, 2.25 m, 2.75m is my guess.

 

[KingTux]

3x2.25

 

[Lunatik]

Yeah, my thought is probably 3x3. Teams have been paying a little more than 100k per point in recent contracts, add in some value for hit physical play and an AAV around 3 million is pretty much market value.

 

[mashedpotato]

Good for Anaheim if they can get him 3x3.25

 

[BatVader]

I guessing it’s 3yrs @ 2.55per

 

[WhatTheDuck]

1.6M, 1.9M, 2.3M

1.933M AAV

 

[VoluntaryDom]

I’m gonna guess 3 years at 2.2 per

 

[405Exit]

Is there a huge push for teams to trade for this player? He's been a pretty big disappointment, imo.

He’s been horrible for the minutes he’s been getting. As a first round pick he’s almost in bust territory.

 

[Duck Off]

yeah... no way in hell Murray gives him more than Kase. My guess is 3 years at 1.65. I have my frustrations with Murray but he's a damn wizard with RFA deals.
