Not if you turn around and sign Hamilton at $9M right after

I'm sure they'll do their best to find a way to f*** it up. And in no way do I think Hamilton is an actual need in Toronto. Despite the narrative around here, defense isn't the Leafs problem. The real need is the complimentary types. Hyman is clearly leaving, the real need is a Bertuzzi, Foligno etc.

$1.5 mil/yr 7 years
+ new wing at the Art Gallery of Toronto named after him which contains paintings and sculptures of museums
+ keys to said wing so he can look at museums, while at a museum, any time he likes

I don't even think the way Hamilton plays would be good for Toronto and their system.

Flame away but I think Toronto's defense is pretty good already, so even if this were feasible I don't think he's the best fit there. They need every cent for forward depth and another goalie.

I think Hamilton goes to Florida. Perfect spot since he doesn't want the spotlight. Plus Florida needs to upgrade their D and him and Ekblad would be a force on the backend.

If Dougie is willing to sign for $7.5m, he'll do it with the Canes so he could do it for 8 years instead of 7

difference is Leafs pajamas
