I think most players will still want to sign 8-year contracts because the risk of injury is so high, and the long contract protects against the severe income loss it could cause.
Idk man, I'd bet if teams keep pushing for 8 years w/the massive jump in the salary cap, the only way it'll happen is if top players get 90%+ of the total contract coming from signing bonuses & full no-move clauses. No way guys are leaving as much as $30MM on the table w/o other incentives.
I think a lot of teams are going to start working with internal caps throughout the off season to give themselves better cap flexibility during the season. Any team that continues to spend to the cap in the offseason will be making financial mistakes.
There’s two reason to sign long term; you could get hurt and be unable to play OR your game drops off mid 30s when that short term contract ends and your next contract is a fraction of what it could have been if you signed an 8 year deal..
Either way it’s a gamble
How long till the Leaf's CAP out again?
20% of 95.5 million is 19.1$ million.
By 27/28 that's 22.7$ million.
And the 19.1$ million salary is now only 16.8% of the teams cap. A lot of these long 8 millionish contracts now look great for the teams who signed them.
Marner is going to be asking for 14 to 15 million.
Should have traded him last year and shaken things up.
No matter how high the cap goes, I would not give him more than 12 max. He definitely is not worth A. Mathew's money. If he truly means that he loves playing here, prove it buy being less greedy and take less. The team still needs to fill other holes. Brad should learn from other GMs.
Mitch will make more AAV than Auston next season.
Larkin $8.7M through 2031
Raymond $8.025M through 2032
Seider $8.55M through 2031
Yzerman just might know what he is doing.
Have you seen his free agent signings? Yikes
@@nerinamak3298 I said *might*
Can't get out of the bottom 10 what you talking about? Non of those players sniff the Leafs big dogs either
Salary cap increasing or not, you can’t a afford another player making near 13M+. Thats just insanity
this is why the avs ditched Rantanen. Watching the Maple queefs screw their team over the "core 4" is exactly why Rantanen is GONE.
I mean i doubt that. They LOST a huge driving factor. Necas playing with Mack doesn't do anything different than when Moose was. Just not as good as Moose was. Drury isnt gonna be a 2nd line centre in the NHL so i dont see HOW they came out on top. What wingers donthe Avs have? Thier depth SUCKS and that on MANAGMENT. Also you sound incredibly stupid when saying queefs. Go grow up child@pilotamurorei
Id throw crazy contracts to McDavid, MacKinnon, Matthews, prime Ovechkin, prime Crosby, Makar, Rantanen types, but that’s the thing.
Marner isn’t part of that category of players, nor is Nylander or Tavares, i think that’s where Toronto fucked up, not giving too much top heavy contracts but to who.
Colorado has Landeskog probably done playing hockey even if he does comes back and Nichushkin being a nuisance for how many playoffs now ? They see the bigger picture and had to take a tough decision to keep their window open. Injury prone Lehkonen and Drouin are also part of that questionable top6.
We can and we will 🤢
@ Disagree on part of what you said there. Nylander is definitely a top 30 player and worth his deal with the cap expanding and his term. Especially in the playoffs. Anyone watching the leafs the last 3-4 years know he is arguably their most clutch player when it matters the most. Not to mention a 40 goal scorer the last few years.
I would rather trade for Crosby and give huge contract to Rantanen than letting Marner comeback on anywhere near 14 mil
Anything over 10 is lunacy unless you are a team desperate for some star power in free agency, like Chicago, Utah or maybe San Jose … Buffalo ? If Marner’s is truly a mercenary why not.
Toronto might be Toronto enough to sign him 13+ and we all know it.
Crosby is never ever ever ever getting traded
With the new cap u can sign Maner and Rantanen for 14M AND even add another 14M player.
Loooool you Toronto schmucks kill me 🤣🤣
And you wonder why you didn’t get a GM position.
If it's going up that high aquiring guys who signed 6-8yr deals recently is way to go. First contracts being signed rn will be overpays.
If he is a point a game in this years playoffs and Toronto makes it to the 3rd round… you can offer him a contract.
Other than that there is no proof your core can get it done and you have go a different direction!
Teams that have 1.) managed their cap and 2.) balanced out their %AAV throughout their lineup and 3.) have key pieces on longer term contracts will reap the benefit over the next 2-3 years. The cap going up will just amplify that.
Marner signs with LA :)
Yes I'm coping so hard
Let him go more cap space to build a better balanced team ,leafs always kissing ass with the so called core 4 enough is enough GM make a statement move for once
In truly predictable Leaf fashion, they will do nothing of significance before the trade deadline, flame-out in the first round, and then sign Marner to more money than he is worth. "We're not here to sell jerseys".... suuuuuuure.
MLSE is interested in only one thing, your money! MLSE wants Marner long term. They will find a way to make it happen.
Could have swore I saw Frank Seravalli confirm these cap numbers as the official increases agreed upon by both the NHL and NHLPA so they should be the official increases for the next 3 seasons.
In the bubble Pettersson was a PPG player, in the SHL he was the playoffs MVP his last year, so saying that he is a bad playoffs player is just wrong. Yes he wasnt good last spring but he was hurt, lets see before we judge, and I do think that he is still injured or at least suffers the effects of not being able to train properly
Sure, play the core players even more then they are making now, chewing up the increase in the cap, leaving the rest of the players still making the minimum.
Are they going to raise the minimum along with the cap?
Nylander has taken way more discounts than Marner and he didn't grow up a Leafs fan.
Marner isn't worth the crazy money and if this really is his dream team then prove it and take a discount. Marner says all sorts of things but his actions never prove it.
14 million for a 11 playoff goals and being soft, perimeter player. No thanks. Doesn't put it all on the line when it matters. Wiser to go after Rantanen instead
Trade Mitch, JT needs to take atleast a 50% discount, Mo can walk for all i care hes been useless, and than go for 2nd line wingers to fill the scoring lack
i don’t see JT getting that low, i hope hes willing to take like a 3 yr 6-7M per deal
i agree abt mitch tho, id like to see his money spent on a couple players at like 5-6M each.
Can the Leafs keep both goalies now?
Offer Nylander money (11.5 million) to Marner, if he doesn’t take it we’ll take two top 6 forwards for that money.
Easy agree. Nylander took discounts to stay and performs way better in the playoffs. Marner hasn't done enough when it matters to be paid so much.
The Leafs don't have the balls to trade Marner (even if he waives), nor do they have the guts to let him go in free agency, so just sign him now and stop the pretenses
Good thing there’s no cap in the playoffs because Marner is nowhere to be found that time of year
How are you guys so bad at math, 20% of $104MM is $20.8MM so call it $21MM. If McDavid is smart then he won't give the Oilers much more time to put a winning roster around him. If Edmonton acts logically, they'll pull a Colorado & trade him if he won't re-sign this off-season. If he decides to stay he should only re-sign for 2 more years to give the Oilers one last chance bc he'd be 31 at the end of the 2 year deal, at which point he'd have to choose either money or legacy, I.E. get a max deal from Edmonton or move to a contender.
Wishful thinking. He's a generational player on a Canadian team.
A leafs fan talking about contenders lol. The Oilers were just in game 7 of the cup final, the 4th round, somewhere the leafs have never been. McDavid is already playing for a contender, and he'll be signing there for 8 years, just like Draisaitl
Marcus Pettersson is 6'4" and weighs less than Hughes. Allvin likes a long and lean Petey.
Lol
Mcdavid will sign 5 years 85 Million with the first year being 14 then 2nd 17.75 a year
He's going to sign for 8 years in Edmonton. There is no way Draisaitl signs for 8 years unless he knows Mcdavid is doing the same. If you believe anything else is going to happen, you're delusional.
How much money do you need!
It doesn't matter what the salary cap is. Guaranteed, the Maple Leafs will overpay any talent.
Pierre Dorion was a town fool on most things, but locking up those core players
Tkachuk
Stützle
Sanderson
was pure GOLD.
They won nothing yet
Woah now, locking up guys who haven’t got them anywhere, let’s at least get to the playoffs before declaring anything GOLD..
Oh come on Dangle , 20?
3 years sounds great until you get Matt Cooke'd
18 million 8 years
Then I would not sign Marner for 14 million, 12.5 million 8 years of walk
Wth? Why, why would you give this group another chance? They didnt come close to winning. Trade him. Dont give him a max contract.
how many playoff series do we have to lose in the first round/how many years without a cup do we need to do before you realize mitch Marner IS NOT THE ANSWER! The BEST TEAM wins the cup.
He shouldn't get anymore than Willy or Auston. who cares if the cap goes up thats such a stupid argument. I will be DONE with Marner if he let's his agent greed his way into a $13+ million contract.
My god are Leafs fans delusional.
McDavid is never going to play for your team, give it a rest. There is no way Draisaitl signs for 8 years unless he knows McDavid is going to do the same thing the next year.
He's signing in Edmonton for 8 years. You can keep crying about it for the rest of the season and look dumb if you want, but by mid August, he'll have committed the remaining years of his career to Edmonton.
As if he'd sign in Toronto where you literally lose in the 1st round every year while he's already playing on a contender. You leafs fans are a joke
Steve you have to consider injuries when it comes to players wanting to sign for 8 years. I like you guys but you’ve never played sports in your life and it shows
I think if Marner signs for say the duration of Matthews contract term Marner shouldn't be paid more than Matthews aav but if he signs for say 8 years he should be paid more than Matthews aav.
Agreed. Matthews cap hit should be the max AAV for a shorter term contract. 8 years should be about Draisaitl AAV.
Might be looking at a depression era landscape in a month. Don't start counting whatcha ain't got 🤔🙆♂️🤦
Marner 16 million x8
🤡
Marner will prob be a Canuck.
Please leave Marner!!!!
Leafs core 5 are the problem. They are talented sure. But they care more about making money than doing what it takes to win. They don’t have heart. They don’t have what it takes to win the big games. If they did have what it takes then they would have showed it already. I’m a leaf fan and wish Shanaplan wasn’t an idiot and didn’t hire Dubas. But they did and the players are to soft now and no heart. I know they won’t blow it up but this team will never win a cup. They blew it.
I don’t want him. He is too small for the playoffs.
If real fans were allowed in the lower bowl being loud, they would boo Mitch. He is the Trudau of hockey, nobody likes him and he doesnt know why.
Contracts should be percentage of the cap - not a dollar amount.
That ends this discussion of inflation and the uncertainty it causes.
Those Habs are gonna be soooo darn good in a couple years
The leafs should give all that new cap space to Marner forsure
I rememebr when the whole league freaked out when Marcahnd signed for 6 mil Yeats ago. Fans are super short and sighted and comment not understanding. Not that I get it all. I don't
So, if they're saying the money a player makes or should be making highly depends on what they do during the playoffs, then how does it work for Auston Matthews? Did HE score monster points and got the Leafs over the hump and got them on a deep run? Matthews was only ok and he still got his money...Lol
What awards has Marner won? Does Marner play C? Matthew’s is the franchise player. That’s the difference between them. It’s pretty simple to understand.
@@JA-vb2or Doesn't that mean it's more of Matthews' responsibility(because he's the franchise player) that the Leafs couldn't get over the hump for the past several years? Yet he still got paid...
Regular season awards are fun to get and all, but ultimately it's all about playoff success...
The beta soy boys of Toronto. No way Marner gets more than Mathews in Toronto.
