6 is not a few...

Again. I don't think they will sign him for 6 years. I'm sure they would for say 3.

I can't imagine he would sign for 3. He will get longer term offers from some silly gm

it does if they plan on taking back contracts to make trades work.

Well if you send 8 million out. You can take 8 million back. You can still make those trades.

Cap will be irrelevant for the Leafs.

Remember the deal that brought Franson to the Leafs in the first place, back when he looked like he might be a decent NHLer?

Signing Franson to a big contract impedes those types of cap-dump trades.

When you're bad cap space is invaluable. It allows you to take garbage with a kicker.

This would just be taking garbage for free.

But Kessel and Phaneuf will still be around, so they will rebuild through the draft and just get Babcock to change the internal culture ? Probably not as hard as it sounds, he can just do his thing, work on those 2 guys until they get it and you're on your way.

New Orleans just extended Anthony Davis

5 years 145MM



Somehow still makes Franson at 6 seem astronomically high.

Exactly. We do this right, we go up to that draft podium 15 times next year. We'll maybe once or twice cuz there's no podium rounds 2-7 but you know what I mean.

A lot of players nowadays are seeking and even getting max deals when they don't deserve it. Not saying unibrow man doesn't deserve it, but aside from him, it's ridiculous. DeRozan will seek a max contract. Unbelievable.
