If Derek Ryan signs in Toronto, Aho will immediately be a tier below the new superstar Toronto center

Derek Ryan fielding multiple, multi-year offers, what a world.
For the 2/3rds+ of the league that isn't in on Tavares and Stastny, Ryan is the 3rd highest scoring center on the market behind Bozak and Riley Nash (!?).
Ryan owes Skinner a steak dinner.
TB and Toronto are both in on Tavares. Both have a $4.5+ million Center who has a NTC kicking in tomorrow (Tyler Johnson and Nazem Kadri). Both could use a top-4 RHD. Justin Faulk may have a NTC that also activates tomorrow.

How good is Johnson? I mean, we for sure could use him but i don't know that much about his game.

If Ryan is Plan B, what's Plan C, me?

Somebody is gonna really, really regret that contract, whoever it winds up being.
Unsustainable
Seth Jarvis is Elite
I’m hoping he gets a 5x5 from one of them.
Waiting on John Tavares to crash the server any minute now...

Wow, if TML gets Tavares. Will they trade Nylander/Marner/Kadri?
Probably not Kadri because he is so cheap, probably not Mariner because tiers, so Nylander.

Noted Jerk
They could probably get the best combination of return on Nylander.

C'mon man, my sources, who are in a position to know, are one hundred and eleventeen percent certain that he'll be re-signing in New York. Haven't you heard that he really, really wants to play there and it's all about money?

If TML gets DR, BP will lose his mind and have to be hospitalized.
Tho, I think it will be in DR's best interest to peel himself off BP, and get out from under that cloud. It will be better for his career, imo.

As it turns out, the last day to deal Ryan and Karlsson to avoid Ryan's bonus payment was May 14th.
I was unaware that a bonus could be paid on a date other than July 1st. You learn something new everyday.

God help us all if Tavares chooses Toronto. Even Leafs fans.

I disagree. Peters sticking him with star wingers to pad his stats is the best thing for his career.
