Take option 2 out. If they were squeezing for more, nobody would be reporting that the 2 sides have pretty much agreed to sign.One of 3 things at work here. There can be only 3 scenarios. I don't know. But let's discuss them until they are signed.
1. Waiting to see how much money Marner is going to take off the cap before the Leafs can assure Kap and Johnsson getting a piece of the pie
2. Agents and players want to squeeze Dubas for more money. Let's remember Johnsson already declined one offer last April.
3. Or has an offer sheet entered the equation?
Take out option 3. If an offershert was happening, why would the players (apparently) agree to the terms they have? You'd think the sheets would be higher...no?
Considering most reports have already confirmed thst your least favorite option...#1 is the case, i'll go with option 1.
