OMG you people are a joke. This board truly is toxic.
Beyond NEXT season, we have ZERO cap issues for the next 6 years. We are going to have Matthews, Marner, Nylander & JT for 6 playoff runs.
Now everyone RELAX and just enjoy it
Your right, only 30 other NHL teams can sign there star players to market value deals. Only idiot Leaf fans would think otherwise.All these idiots pretending to be upset over Matthews signing for $11.634M claiming he should be getting $9M?? (Seriously??) are the same ones that were complaining that Matthews was going to cost $12.5M ++

It's a **** deal, it's ****ing terrible to the point where 12.5 x 8 would have been better for us. It's what Marners agent said, the best deal in the NHL right now and is not team friendly at all. We got fleeced for a second time with Dubas.
It’s less than what Crosby/Malkin got. Way less than what McDavid got.
You’re a pony in this game pretending you have some amazing knowledge yet you’re as inept as most anyone else here.
The cap is perfectly manageable going forward, and this shapes the rest of the league. In two years’ time you and all the other troglodytes on this forum will be bleeting your reverence for this contract and forget how incensed you were when you knew so little of the overall picture.
It's official. We do not sign contracts based on actual ability in Toronto.
Demands McDavid money, produces NONE OF THE RESULTS to warrant such, yet he's still ****ing ENTITLED TO IT?!?!
WHAT THE **** IS GOING ON HERE????
How does this hurt the team exactly?It's a **** deal, it's ****ing terrible to the point where 12.5 x 8 would have been better for us. It's what Marners agent said, the best deal in the NHL right now and is not team friendly at all. We got fleeced for a second time with Dubas.

Why the hell would he get 13.8 Mil a year lol
Even if you don't want to make it all about goals, he's second in the league in P1/60 as well. I don't think people would complain about this contract if he'd get the minutes to put up gaudy numbers. Personally, I'm more about paying for what I believe is the player's ability. I don't really care to pay extra or less due to usage.Matthews has the 2nd most EV goals in the league since he came into the league. AND that's with playing 15-20 games less than all the other players in the top 20.
The only player he is behind is Connor McDavid. And McDavid has played 1400 more minutes than Matthews while only having 8 more EV strength goals.
Matthews deserves EVERY penny of this contract. He his a top 3 GOAL SCORING center in the NHL which are very hard to come by.
Well, most fans don't use disingenuous arguments to make the contract of their franchise center look worse. Saying that Matthews is a 69 point player is not exactly accurate.Do people really think a 40goal scorer with 69points in a season deserves to be the highest paid player in the league...
Salaries keep going up. I don't think Eichel should be making more than Crosby, but that's how the league works. Also, you are heavily downplaying Matthews' talentDo people really think a 40goal scorer with 69points in a season deserves to be the highest paid player in the league...
It isn't. At all.Way less than what McDavid got.
This is a worse deal than nylanders. Why are you giving him this much money for 5 years.
