Speculation: Nylander Contract Discussion III

[kindalaidback]

you guys are so OTT. everything's gonna be fine.

Why does everyone assume its Dubas that is holding things up. Can it not be Nylander asking for too much?

OTT?

 

[kindalaidback]

OTT?

over-the-top

They could very well meet today or any day of the week and sign. I don't think management is panicking like some fans are. They'll work it out.

Thanks.

I just used Toews as a rough guide

NHL Players’ Salaries Shrink by Millions After Taxes

Next time any player talks politics on anything, even libreral b.s. im not commenting at all, these bastards pay more tax than anyone maybe ever..yikes

 

[Kubus]

Escrow ensures a fair 50/50 split, not sure how that makes the owners "parasites" or indicates the players are propping up the league.

It's also the NHLPA that vote to raise the salary ceiling each year, which affects the escrow even more.

Those numbers are not even close. Those would be the numbers if a player did nothing but collect their Cheques and just did nothing with their money. Tax consultants and investment advisers make the tax payable a lot less.

In reality its probably a little bit of both.

They were close on Thursday and then on Saturday it was off again. Hopefully it gets done in the next day or two.

A buddy of mine was saying similar. Said there is a "roadblock" (his words) right now.

 

[BlueForever75]

I think it will get done by end of week this week. Just before training camp.

Arizona bleeds money, and Toronto players have to foot the bill for it. Kinda parasitic if you ask me.

When is Nylander UFA eligible again?

Was it after he 2021-2022 season?

how many less jobs would there be if you knocked out the weak revenue teams ?

 

[hotpaws]

I didn't realize JT was involved in the negotiations .

roadblock, could be a no trade clause maybe. Maybe they want him to take a discount and to do it he wants a NTC

Pretty sure RFA contracts don't include NTC's.

My entirely uneducated assumption is something surrounding bonuses versus salary. If they are close on an overall number, the lockout-proofness of the contract may be a stalling point.

players cannot get a ntc until they are 27 years old, that is why zaitsev's does not kick in until next july ...

Oh well then scratch that, that can’t be the issue

I might completely wrong here but I remember reading somewhere that players can’t get no trades clauses until they hit a certain age. Not sure of the age, 27 seems to be in my head, or again if I’m even right just hope a contract gets done this week for him.

NTCs can only kick in during the years a player is UFA eligible. So if the Leafs bought 3 years of UFA with Nylander's next contract, the NTC wouldn't kick in until the final 3 years of the deal.
