They're gonna have to pay Matthews and Marner next year, not in a few years... Gardiner is also a UFA after this season

yeah, ANA would be a good fit for Nylander.
TOR don't really a choice here. they have to improve their dcore, and extend Gardiner.

With other GMs aware of Nylander's contract demands, it really puts them in a tough spot... Im sure they would be looking for a top 4 RD in his mid 20's or younger, which sounds fair but how many teams would be willing to pay Nylander 8?

who says he wants 8M? that looks a bit high to me.

in any case, Leafs would be much better off with 8M on the blue line than another 8M forward.
Montour or Manson in ANA could be a nice return. and ANA could use Nylander.

Reports everywhere saying he's looking for at least 8, not sure how accurate it is but I would think if it was under 7 he'd be playing right now

that doesn't make sense to me. he has no leverage, will only be eligible for arbitration, not ufa.
his next contract could be for 8M, not this one.

Doesn't seem to make sense to anyone other than Nylander and his representation yet here we are...

Naw fido, I think Gardiner is gone after this year.

But you are right, I don't know if they have "no" choice, but it sure looks like the right choice may be trading Nylander.

Matthews 12
Tavares 11
Marner 8
Nylander 7
Marleau 6,25
Kadri 4,5
Rielly 5
Gardiner 5
Zaitsev 4,5
Andersen 5

Almost 70 million spent on 10 players, not much money left to fill out the rest of the roster or to improve the back end
