The Nylander Chronicles Part XXI - Legal Drinking Age in the US Version

[hamzarocks]

He is going to sign soon. If a chump like Ed Belfour had a billion dollars just waiting to toss around to a cop, a guy like nylander can get atleast 2 billion.

 

[LeafsHome]

The scenario is definitely there. Me personally, I think it's a bad idea. He'd have arbitration rights and most likely outprice himself out of our plans in the medium term.

7x7 please.

= 49-29(jersey number) = 20(goals last year)

 

[jaric1862]

3 years 16 million seems about right at this point. Just sign it willy!!

 

[nobody]

I hate reading books. Especially ones that have the words chronicles in the title. Also what the f*** is a Nylander?

Man I for some reason don't like books with chronicles in the title either.

Absolutely one of my favourite Far Side comics. Being gifted, I get to use this one often in my day to day going ons.....


We should have a Far Side reaction to Nylander thread.....

Worse case scenario, trade Nylander for picks, sign Karlsson in the summer.

Refresh my memory, what are these Nylander threads about?

The cost of putting your child thru minor hockey in the GTA?


Hoping the kid signs soon tho.

Could help Babcock balance the lines out even more.

 

[GoldenGOOSE]

Everyone figure out the real chill. They meet in Zurich, get a numbered account, wait at least two weeks so the stupidest of any hockey board doesn't figure it out and deal done.

Jeezus people are stupid;

Just my opinion of course, I have no knowledge of how to beat the hard cap system and I seek safe harbor.

This is just for entertainment purposes of discovering how stupid Leaf fans are.

 

[GoldenGOOSE]

Dumber than dumb.... Its why the rich are richer by any imagination.

Dubas knows the Leafs miss Bozak and JVR. Nylander wants to play and everyone wants to make money

Gnite Alice.

Its the business of hockey folks, don't forget it.

Get an off books deal done weeks in advance, no one looks too hard, not the Dregers or the paid offs and all is good.

Just my opinion of course, everyone knows where the toast gets buttered.

I seek safe harbor and this is just for entertainment purposes, but get real foks;. this is how we do it.

 

[GoldenGOOSE]

Deal done, you heard it here first, as usual. Source? Intuition. Destinations.

Team still not a good team till it fires Babcock, everyone hates him on the bench and behind the bench and fathers and mothers etc...

Matthews just seems to totally despise the guy.

 

[Advanced stats]

Over 50% confident it gets done this week. I'm not ruling a long term deal out either.

Pastrnak signed for 6.6x6 after putting up 34 goals/70 points. We simply won't be able to compete with other teams if we're paying more money for (lol) 20 goal/60 point players than our direct competition pays for their 34 goal/70 point players.

 

[Kiwi]

No it's not. There's always been a realistic scenario where we bridge him even though he's in our long-term plans. We discussed them here all through the summer. That haven't changed.

There is absolutely no way I'd want deal with this **** again in a much worse bargaining position, if he gets bridged i'd be looking to move him this off-season

For my next job I'm going to hold out for two months and then demand the lost wages back in a signing bonus

I agree....it seems having a lot of talent on our roster is now being used to our disadvantage. Would Marner already have signed long term at 6 million... if he was in Larkin's place?

Same goes to Nylander.

Both are about to play with franchise centres, on a very deep roster... so of course it's easy to bet on yourself.

In the end, it is what could keep us from being Stanley Cup winners.

With the extra seasons of a bridge , you have more time to plan ahead, move out salary and contracts if need be. If Nylander shows management he’s worth a bigger investment there won’t be this situation again.

As far as I can tell... and I'm very VERY confused by it... but a lot of the leaf "fans" here would rather our star players sign for above market value than for our team to be elite long term. I don't get it either...

But if Nylander wants to be paid like an 80 point player when he's a 60 point player... what's he going to want to be paid as if he actually becomes an 80 point player during his bridge deal?

Part of Nylander’s curre t contract demands are based on potential growth. In 2-3 seasons he’ll be in the middle of his prime, and both sides will have less wiggle room over what he’s worth/can request.

Why didn't Ehlers agent argue potential growth? Why didn't Pastrnaks agent argue potential growth? Why is this argument unique to Nylander?

Elhers opted to take the safe bet rather than gamble. Pasta’s agent probably should have been fired for that contract, Boston got very lucky there.

CJ: Dubas meeting with Gross in NY.

Only games going on in the NYC area last two days:
1. @ Nyr Sunday
2. @Phi Monday

Ah... I see. The agents of all of Nylanders comparables should be fired. Nylander alone is setting hte market.
