What will Matthew's contract be?

[Hellraising Senator]

Having a debate with my friend whose a die hard Leafs fan and he swears Matthew's will sign for 10 million. I call bs. I see him closer to McDavid.

What say you HF?

11 x 8

gets the same AAV as JT.

 

[Skolman]

Considering McDavid is at 12.5 mil, I'd guess Matthews signs for around 10.5 mil.

 

[LeafsNation75]

11 x 8

gets the same AAV as JT.

That's exactly what I was thinking and it's still more than Jack Eichel's contract because he should be the best comparable to Matthews.

 

[A1LeafNation]

11 x 8

 

[Regal]

I agree with 11x8. Use Tavares as the team standard. If they can get it lower, that woukd be gravy but I wouldn't expect it

 

[CanadienShark]

$11m most likely.

 

[Makar Goes Fast]

9 mill by 4 so matthews can leave for his hometown coyotes his first chance and show off his kid pj's

 

[WillTheThrill]

10.5 or 11 x 8 is my guess.

$11M AAV 8 years

 

[Wewillrise]

He will get more than Eichel that’s for sure, Eichel signed 2 yrs before him at 10. Pretty obvious.

 

[EscapeGoat]

12M x 8 years. He will get more than JT.

 

[Ctrain2k]

They paid Tavares 11 mil so now they have to pay Matthews.

Can we wait till atleast the season ends? It’s absolutely stupid to say he’s gonna get over 10 million.

 

[WingsMJN2965]

This is a horrible poll lol. $10M+ is obvious unless he's getting a bridge deal, which ain't happening.

8 x $12M.

 

[Laineux]

8x13 and there will be a thread where its proclaimed the best contract in the league several times

 

[pikkuvaimo]

12M x 8 years. He will get more than JT.

This sounds about right.

 

[biturbo19]

Just narrowly shy of McDavey money.

 

[Icebreakers]

Can we wait till atleast the season ends? It’s absolutely stupid to say he’s gonna get over 10 million.

There's no way in hell he gets under 10 unless if he gets hit by a bus

 

[LeafGrief]

$10.5m x 8 unless he really blows the doors off this year, then he could get 11 or even 11.5.

 

[Halla]

tsn talking about 12.5 with the cap increase to get to 13.2 is beyond silly

 

[Halla]

8x13 and there will be a thread where its proclaimed the best contract in the league several times

he isnt getting 13 mil. dont be silly

i bet you are one of the same people who think laine signs for 8 x 8.5 though right?

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

11 million

 

[libertarian]

While I voted over 10m it realy depends what he does this season. If he proves that he is really a top 5 C in the league then he will easily make 10+m per year. If he has a off year then who knows what he will sign for. My guess is that no matter what happens this year he will sign a 8 year contract above 10m.

I'm thinking around 10-11.
