The Leafs are soooo ****ed cap wise. The Toronto Media Hype machine has effed them over big time. And cue the offer sheet on Marner or trade before July 1 according to Friedman.
At his press conference today Dubas said Marner is priority number one and it's imperative they get him signed before July 1. Not that there was any rush for Marner to sign but now even less so with Dubas announcing this publicly.

This guy is in way over his head.

I don’t see that happening. His agent has basically said he is as good or better than Mathews so you know your starting point. Now factor in term and up front cash and signing bonuses.

If the Leafs want more than the 1 free agent year they gave Mathews he will cost them far more than Mathews. He won’t do a shorter deal unless the money is also more as it’s too much risk on the player.

Burke said today he thinks he is going past July 1. Friedman said he’d be traded before July 1.
Either way Dubas goofed up big time on Nylander and Nostrils.
Yup let's hope so. :DD

Marners agent holds all the cards. The only thing that will keep Marner from hitting July 1 is Marner himself.

Burke thinks they should keep Kadri because he's at a good price. But he's f***ed you two years in a row in the playoffs. Don't think that offsets it, and there is no guarantee he's learned a thing.

Burke's probably got a soft spot for a guy he drafted because there is no way you keep this guy. He's a liability.

Dallas is playing a 5v5 PK setup in their zone behind 2 goals with less than 5 mins left in the game lol.

He already said he’s not going to stop playing like that and “sticking up for his teammates”.

His agent said Marner already took a hometown discount on his ELC (no bonuses).

Imagine having to trade Marner because you overpaid Me-lander and Angry Birds and signed Pajama Boy to a deal you didn't need to sign him to.

Reffing at an all time high this year it seems like every other game there are significant foul ups.
