Weekes saying $5M for Tanev. Better not be 6 years

5x4 is somewhat palatable, but anything more is insane.

Sucks, but I don't blame him.

Hopefully they can convince him that Keefe was a moron.

Can trade Liljegren for whatever at that point

6 years won’t be as ugly as it seems. Cap hit should be around $112 mill by then so it won’t even be 5%
- Dozzer

The only point in giving a 34 year old 6 years is to get the AAV down. 6 years at $5M is a problem. It’s possible that the league said no to the first deal they did up.

To be fair Jarnkrok I don’t mind… a line 3 bottom sixer and paid the appropriate $2.1 mill a year for it. It’s Kampf I don’t like… $2.4 mill for the 4th line C… yuck
- Dozzer


I don't like Kampf, either. I think he needs to be traded.

And that's how I was on Jarnkrok, too. But buddy has done absolutely nothing to help the team come playoffs. Last 30 games and 7 points. 0 this last playoffs. I'm set to move on from him now.

Plus for 2-3 of those years he’ll be sun tanning on Robidas Isle.

Either way, cap hits won’t seem nearly as bad as they have recently moving forward.

Those both pale to the Reevo deal … still by far the biggest miss so far for Tre -

Yes and no. Leafs are built to be contenders (I know I know lol) and the ducks aren’t. Means the ducks should pay a little more to bring in talent.

Tyler Bertuzzi won’t be returning to the Maple Leafs. His value has out priced Toronto. He will land a deal elsewhere in the 4 year and over $5 mil per territory.

It really is no big deal for the Leafs to LITR players for the last couple years of their contracts. Little circumvention-y but what isn’t these days?

All I’m saying is he’s either benched like you mention or he ends up being a productive guy in his late 30s. $5 mill won’t seem like much by then.

#TexasHockey did not qualify RFAs Sam Steel and Nils Lundkvist. Both can become UFAs on Monday.

Both are arbitration eligible. Stars gave up a first-round pick for Lundkvist in 2022.

Well, they just traded for Kevin Hayes, so I think they got worse problems to deal with at the moment.

Talks still ongoing between Sam Reinhart's camp and the Cup champion Panthers. Told it's likely going right down to the wire on that one.

Too bad about Robertson, but his trade value is likely at an all time high. Heck of a shot, and put up a lot of goals in limited minutes.
- Whipper

Are you thinking of his brother?

He’s Bracco 2.0

Robertson has played 87 NHL games at 23 to Braccos zero, ever. Pretty poop comparable
