Don’t hate the guy, but I’m also happy he’s only on a one year deal.

Hes played better than he started, just not sure he fits with the team for 5m per.

To be fair about him I’m genuinely interested to see how he closes out the season. If he keeps up his recent pace okay sweet, a solid signing for top 6 grit, if this is his peak that only lasts a short period of time, I won’t see it the same way.

Over half the season to watch to find out tho so I’m liking he’s climbing upwards 👍

Still willing to see how he closes out the season but at the same time $5+ mill guys should be season long successes, at least average at best

Just got a SN notification that the Leafs are closing in on a 8x$11.5M extension with WN. Discuss.

I’ve heard it’s 11.5 years X $8M.

92M .....If they said no he'd need to find someone willing to pay him 7x$13.1.

I'd wait until summer.

All comes back to same outcome for me ...these 4 guys are getting the type of money that ensures that they'll have to carry the team themselves.

So take what comes with that. They have no right to complain about a lack of depth, defence or goaltending.

And Treliving can't push the false narrative about "there is no Core4". You choose to pay the big 4 this way ...fine. But the balance of the roster is necessarily sacrificed. There is a Core4 ..it's all about them and you've set it up that way.

It is what it is. They might win ..they might not. Those 4 guys will be hero's or zero's every year here on out.

We should probaby re-sign Jones on the cheap asap. Next years g'tending budget is going to be real small.

I’m liking that both the top lines have guys willing to drive hard to the net now. Knies and Bertuzzi might be just the little touch the talent needed
