@thejustinfisher: By my count, that's just shy of $6.5M in cap space left. Leafs only need to sign Gardiner. Pretty successful offseason so far.

It's enticing to a team who may pick him up in a trade that he is locked in for 2 years
Arb would have been only a 1 year ruling as he was set to be a ufa due to him hitting 27 years of age

A team getting him - if he gets traded - doesn't get screwed into having to overpay next summer if he has a good year this year to keep him

He will get moved I believe before the start of the season or during the start of the season

Havnt really thought of it that way but it makes a lot of sense.

Leafs can also get a little more in the way of a return for him as he is locked up for 2 years at a good price

Not for a UFA to be...then again Holland did trade Jarnkrok for a rental, gave Quincey, Cleary and Monster raises so who knows.

They only thing that confuses me is they gave him a 500 000 raise. Whether you like him or not he did not deserve a raise after last season.

8 years 3.75 mil for gardiner and done
lock this beauty up. 3.75 mil for a good #3/4D will be so worth it once we're 2-3 years into that deal

Franson is going to bounce for a huge retarded contract elsewhere and he's going to ignore defense so he can put up points for that contract. Get rid of him.

He's not taking that deal. Look to Hamonic, Voynov and Schenn's first deal for,comparison. 5-6 years at 4.25-4.75

The same player player who was worth $4 million two years ago is worth 15% more under today's cap structure. The actual number is less relevant at the offset of the contract than the % of cap space that player will take.

2 years at 2.5-2.75 mil for Gardiner.

My guess.

Real dollars mean crap in a cap world though the biggest thing is the cap hit.
