Chris Johnston mentioned that the Leafs may pivot to Mikael Granlund, for example, if Tavares walks.
CJ added the Leafs and Tavares are still “wide apart” on money. If the Leafs go long-term, that might help bridge the gap, but neither side is there yet. Both sides understand they’ll have to move, and with a week before July 1st, Tavares is still more likely to re-sign than not.
another problem is, if they dont sign Tavares… they could pivot to a worse player.
it always seems like other teams get an quick easy deal done… 80 point player Duchene signs for a ham sandwich and bottle of rum, Leafs and JT are far apart .. same ol stuff
players are not totally taxed based on the Team/city that they play for, the 41 home games are and the rest are taxed based on where the game is played and a whole bunch of other stuff.
Do players on teams in no-state-tax areas gain a massive financial advantage?
There are six teams in the NHL that play in cities that do not levy a state income tax. These teams are the Florida Panthers, Tampa Bay Lightning, Nashville Predators, Seattle Kraken, Vegas Golden Knights and Dallas Stars. Undoubtedly, this is a financial advantage for these players and is being used as a recruiting tool by these teams. However:Players on these teams still owe taxes for games played in other states and provinces.
For high earners, federal taxes (U.S. or Canadian) typically dwarf state taxes, meaning the state tax benefit is often overstated.Leafs lost who gives a shit and its not like its 1 year, its 10 years of failure.
the team hasnt won a fucking thing as is. in 10 fucking years.
And yet has more career playoff points than everybody on the team so clearly the stupidity is in the complimentary pieces they keep failing to acquire.
because they have to overpay Mitch to shit his pants when they have to win a game.
14mil to not help his team win.
Fact is Marner has been part of the methods of stupidity in building a team.
so overpay him again?doesnt make sense to say they suck a one thing then want them to do that same thing
some people get ranty when you post simple facts. its nothing to get worked up about. UFAs get offered contracts based on thier reg season production.
players who score 38 goals and 74 points get paid accordinglylol jfc constant ranty guy cant help himself
who fucking cares about all that. point being they didnt have to reply on good drafting to win.Ah, another year of not having to bother watching the draft.
Just like old Leafy times.
i will watch to see Bettman booed and hear about all the trades that dont happen
Corry Perry at 34 scored 5 goals and was always injured, Tavares just scored 38. is a Center and still a point a game.
I agree once JT is a 10 goal 30 point player, he should be getting 1mil deals. but thats not reality for him right now.JT has been exactly what you expect over the 7 years. If you were expecting awards and scoring titles, thats probably on you
Out of Floridas last 10 drafts (63 picks) they have 1 player on the team that had any impact on the cup wins. Lundell
thats 2015-2024im going to have to post this over again
re Toews
Every player that signs that someone wanted on the Leafs, its because the Leafs are dumb and didnt just go get him.
there are no other reasons
Frankie Corrardo’s predictions are just his name being credited for a bunch of propeller heads in the back doing the work lol.
Also fuck no to 8M for Marchand at 37 years old for me.
From this list, instead of Marner at 13M or more:
Give me Patty Kane at 4M for L1
Bring Connor Brown back home for2M
Hell grab Jamie Benn for 4M
B. Tanev at 1.5 would be great
I dont really care whos name is attached to the list, just curious about what some players might land at
you could also get granlund, kane, brown and tanev for less than Marner
some contract predictions
marchand 8.1 and Puis suter 4.6 = 1 Marner
