lol.60 point player should not get more then 7. If he wants to take a nice discount for the Leafs he should sign for 6. Any more then 7.5 and it's a overpay. But then again another 60 point player in Johannson got 8..
Unless he has a monster playoffs like Drai did last year I don't think he will get 8.5
Everyone's been saying that Matthews will get a 10-12 million contract next year, more than Eichel and Draisaitl and not far off of McDavid. It seems to me that he hasn't done anything to justify a contract over 10 mil. Last year Draisaitl scored more points than Matthews career high, as well as a monster playoff. (best g/gp and p/gp, 0.46 and 1.23). Everyone still called his contract an overpayment.
Unless Matthews goes lights out these playoffs, I don't see him getting over 10 million.
Leafs fans are 1967x worse.If you still don’t think Oilers fans are a cringe fest, read the OP.
Better two way playerThere is nothing Matthews does that McDavid does not do better except for shooting which McDavid has already improved by leaps and will continue to.
Nope. Not even close.Better two way player
Yup and it's not close. Matthews is better defensivelyNope. Not even close.
It really is bizarre that so many think Matthews will get 11, but Laine and Barzal, who are better according to HF, are quoted at getting around 8 to 8.5 to 9.
We hope your right, but it's unlikely his agent is that moronic.60 point player should not get more then 7. If he wants to take a nice discount for the Leafs he should sign for 6. Any more then 7.5 and it's a overpay. But then again another 60 point player in Johannson got 8..

Why don’t you Oiler Fan Boys reminisce about how you were suppose to win the SC and are instead one of the worst teams in the NHL again. Don’t worry about other teams players, worry about how badly PC is gonna mess up your team yet again.
Cool except he has never got 77 points like Drai has and never got 16 points in 13 playoff games like Drai has. Maybe next season he will and great. But for now he is not worth over 8.5
You're living in a fantasy land if you think he would get less than that.
- He's gone ppg& scored 40 goals, Drai has achieved neither.
- He destroys Drai in his +1& 2 seasons and has 1 more year left on his ELC.
3 elite seasons >>> 1 elite season.
- He neither has a 2x Art winner on his line.
My guess is 8X10.5.
Ligthten up on Oiler fans.. just like leaf fans there are good and bad.

This sounds about right IMO but I wouldn't be surprised to see him sign for a little more than Eichel (10.5)Matthews should get between $8.5 (Draisaitl) and $10 million (Eichel). No way he comes anywhere near McDavid (nor should anyone for that matter).
Why would he make less than eichel?Matthews should get between $8.5 (Draisaitl) and $10 million (Eichel). No way he comes anywhere near McDavid (nor should anyone for that matter).
4 years at 8 mil, sound about fair...
