If you are not willing to spend 50dollars on your own health, family and friends' health.. Something is wrong with you.
- MaximusAurelius

Nothing is wrong with me.

Is there something wrong with you thinking everyone has $$ to spend

I have no friends I associate with.

Please fork the coin $$$ sir.

I will not pay $50 per for a test. What if there 5 test you need to take??
I will not pay for the Shingles vaccine either.

Now if the test were actually a reasonable cost $10 or less than sure otherwise (frank) that noise.

Nylander isn't overpaid imo.

So what’s the math on a 100% overpayment?
- Canada Cup


Well I should have said "certainly" instead of 100%.

But the math would be to divide by 2.

individually, none of the big 4 contracts, even marner's are much of a problem.

the problem is collectively they take up too much space.

It's called entitlement. You know, when some pissant on the internet is insinuating you're a piece of poop for not stating you'd drop 50$ on a test every couple of days during the biggest economic crisis of our lifetime when a good chunk of people have lost their income.

Which is why no one gives him any credibility whatsoever, he's a piece of poop. 🤷‍♂️

Tavares C and Rielly and Hyman the A.
Heck, even give Muzzin an A.
But giving Matthews and Marner an A is just stupid.

While you may be right.

I don't think Nylander should be included in this logic.

The problem isn't to spend 40 something millions on 4 players.

It's spending 33+ millions on 3 players.

$28,750,000. 7-9 years (30% of the cap):

Think that's the max that he can get. 'Cause he'll have played 8 years in the league.

Or at least that's what a really quick google search told me.

- GreatGigInTheSky


haha no ....a supermax in the NBA is currently about 5 years and $247 milly.

his contract was 45M over 6 years.

it should have been no more than $40M over 6 years imo.

- Tumbleweed


He was a UFA. he was offered 13 million per. They are lucky they signed him with the worst offer. He would never take that deal you suggested.

There are so many teams spending 20-30 million on pure crap. It's the Leafs, so everyone knows that. Canucks are seen as a contender now with an amazing future, have you looked at their collosal waste?

They share an alternating "A" as the 2nd assistant captain. This is such a non issue.

Leaf fans need a Marc Bergevin. 8.5 for Edmondson and Allen. That's how you manage cap. Because no one makes 10+, no one will notice or care. That's litterally 5 million wasted right there.

Do people think if a cap hit is below 6 million it's not counted or something?

Edit - read your post wrong.

So this post will be about me extolling the virtues of burritos.

They are delicious.

Tavares C

Rielly A

Matthews A

That's what it should be since they already gave Tavares the C. Rielly was my choice for C before they named Tavares, but no complaints with Tavares being captain.

spending more than 4 seconds caring about it is also stupid...in my opinion.

where the A is does not change anything I care about

Joel, you are one of these people that spend 200dollars a week on drugs, whores, booze and cigarettes, but thinks spending 10dollars for an antibiotic or 150dollars for a doctor to help you is 'excessive'.. I know your type. Called 'parasites'

tavares was a ufa. needed to overpay to get him.

i know many disagree, but to me matthews and nylander are overpaid by about a mil each. and marner by 2.5 to 3.


that's 4.5 to 5m of cap space that would be pretty handy right now.

- Tumbleweed


Can't argue with JT. He's "overpaid" in the sense that Panarin and almost every other elite UFA is overpaid.

Matthews is worth every nickel IMHO. Paying for years 21-26 of his career.

Willie is good value ...maybe on his comps he's +/- 500k ....

Marner, I agree. But I'm not sure how you get to 2.5-3? He's 6 x 8 in your mind? I think that's light. The bridge guys got 3 x 7 .....Rantanen 6 x 9.25 is probably the best comp. So for me he's 1 to 1.5 overpay.

For me the collection is maybe 1-2 million in overpay. Which is why I don't sweat it.
