already in a grumpy mood? Expecting Stamkos to sign with Buffalo? Garth's reaction will be hilarious.

Anyone know if there's any truth that the Leafs have a 3.5 million dollar per year marketing contract ready for stammer outside the cap that's been approved by the league?

Even it's true, how is it not tampering?

Then again, who said it and are they employed by MLSE?

I don't think it's tampering as they are aloud to talk to free agents but it definitely sounds like cap cercumvention

Don't know, but if I was to guess, I think its legit. They may close that loophole next CBA though.

I don't get how the leafs can pull that "oh we are just paying him an endorsement deal" not salary so it doesn't count.

They can't do that.

But i could see them trying to get creative. like paying a fee to a non related party who then pays a similar fee to Stamkos.

No matter how they try to do it. It's cap circumvention in my opinion.

If they wanted, they could ask around what some companies would pay to have Stamkos endorse their brand or product and for how much and put that into a nice tidy file in their contract offer. Not saying they would bother but that's the only way.

That'd be awesome.

Should Edmonton win the Lucic Lottery and Buffalo lose the Stamkos Stampede, it makes perfect hockey sense for Taylor Hall to land in Buffalo.
