Toews deserves it.. Kane not so much. Spending that much on two players is risky.. See Pittsburgh..

2 cups in 5 years..I think they have some wiggle room and have made a large amount of money in the playoffs alone and should continue for the next few years.

they can make all the money in the world but they still have to play with the same salary cap as everyone else.

They always find a way to shuffle out players for second rounders to make it work.

If there was no cap sure.. Watch, you'll see that Toews and Kand can't do it all w/o the support players. When Pitt won everyone thought it would be cup after cup, but that wasn't the case because they had no depth.. Kunitz, Neal, and Letang are all good players, but it's pretty thin beyond that.

Toews/Kane and soon to be Subban's contracts give new meaning to how we've perceived Kessel's and Phaneuf's.

Just wait until next offseason when the cap is 74-75m and talk of 2016 is roughly 80m.

IMO, the Leafs need to offer Gardiner 6x4.5m and don't even blink twice.

$21 million in two players is a lot, until you see those two players: P. Kane and Toews are essentially irreplaceable.

Randy Carlyle among those in attendance for prospect camp. Currently in conversation with Brendan Shanahan in offices above ice surface.

I can picture it now:


"Hey, Randy. About that request..."
"For the new toaster?"
"Yeah, that one. We may not have the budget for it."
"So that means.."
"That means you are gonna have to learn to use the one we have"

What happened with The Pens is very different from this scenario. Regarding the cap, yes, that is similar. Otherwise much different.

Mine was.. my gfs friend would buy me chocolate milk and a cookie in the morning. I guess she wanted the D. Too bad the D didnt want her.

Then pattie and pizza at lunch. Then to the benches for the herbs.
