The list will be vast
- walshyleafsfan

but at least you can count on the lums factor.....it counters the smaller cap hit and shorter contract duration

6 for Marner
6 for Nylander
9 for Matthews
21 Total.

Nice work Lou

so another player the Leafs will be forced to trade?
- Symba007

Really...

Agree, Bergeron is still a stud and as much as I don't like that douchebag Marchand - can be a very good player. One intangible that the Bruins have is the fans are animals for the most part, no team likes to play there.

You probably had a pretty firm grip going eh, that up and down motion trying to 'lift his stick' was surely straining on your hand

Pastrnak deal is good for us.
If we can get Nylander under 7.....even better.
I still believe we can get all three for under 24- 25 million per.
- Fakepartofme

Yes it is. If you look at Cap Friendly for the Bruins, there is some logic to the deal. Pastrnak got more than Marchand and less than Bergeron. No way the Bruins were going to pay Pastrnak more than Bergeron. I agree under $7 for Nylander, but Matthews and Marner are another year away - money will depend on how long Leafs wait - if they wait until next summer and they've had monster seasons could cost more than you hope.

How did you fit your new Schaffhausen over that ape-ish wrist of yours?

Yeah, I can see the conversation going something along the lines of:

Marleau got 6.25 and he has over 500 goals and 1000 points in the NHL

Marner needs to make up for Bozak and JVR's lack of defensive abilities and effort.

Marner is by far the superior player on that line, and he deserves to have better players with him, in order to be able to not only think D first..

Alot of people still don't realise what a special player Marner is..

It's plays like this that illustrate what he is all about:

Not this again. Come on Bozak is "ok" defensively.

You notice I did not anything about JvR eh.

I'm ashamed I did not see this coming. Which is what Lums says often.

I bought an industrial size container of lube to go with it.

You are dreaming here Walshy. Sign Matthews now - probably $10 million, wait until after this season and he hits 100 points $12.5 million 90 points $11.5.
Sign Marner now $6.5 Nylander $6.5

Best case scenerio is $23 million, and it is likely more than that.

With the Pastrnak deal, Nylander's value goes from 6 to 7 per, to 6 to 6.5 per.

I think someone said 24 earlier, which in my opinion is almost spot on.

Only Nylander can be extended right now, Matthews and Marner can't be until July 2018, at the earliest.

I'd say 10+, ~7 and ~7. Chances are that one of them will 'flop' though...

There is no 45 gallon container of KY Bixy. You know better.

55 gallon drum at the local BJ's

I'd say 10+, ~7 and ~7. Chances are that one of them will have a record breaking year though...
