chris.brock Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 I think it's expensive, both his previous seasons he only scored 20 goals playing with AM. I like it though. He will help us this season and post season and we can move him in the summer if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris.brock Posted December 2, 2018 Report Share Posted December 2, 2018 The cup, priceless Bri. I know what you are saying it's just that damn salary cap and there's only gonna be so much $$$ to go around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grimsbylander Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 If there's one thing the brass has shown, it's they know what they're doing. The cap is going up next year and I'm sure they've done their calculations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cap is going up next year and I'm sure they've done their calculations. Kappi is on pace to score 30, so does that justify $9 or 10 mill with respect to Nylander's 20 goals $7 mill, with a bad attitude to boot? The numbers don't add up. When the final calculations are done, I would guess Nylander will be traded. Hopefully we get a good return.

leaf4 Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 I think they'll hang on to him if the salary cap goes to the upper limit of what it's projected to be, they've got Rielly and Kadri locked up on team friendly deals, and marleau is gone after next year that makes space for AM and Marner. Gardiner is potentially gone, unless he takes something in the 5 mil range I think. Zaitsev is going to be packaged and traded to just rid themselves of his contract. Hainsey will be gone after this year as well or come back for cheap. If the leafs go deep in the playoffs it will be self serving as it will help them generate more revenue to push the cap up. Would be nice if Montreal and NYR were better than they are because they generate big bucks too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misfish Posted December 3, 2018 Report Share Posted December 3, 2018 That has to hit him. Wanting to play for the leafs and coming from Innisfil. Atleast he got a piece of his dream. Carcone has some numbers. Lets hope he fits in the puzzle. When are we going to work on D improvements ?????????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaf4 Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 Gotta wonder what Marner is going to ask for, gone are the days of 6.5 as many projected last year. Cap has been announced at 83mill so a 3.5 mill increase, if it continues at that trajectory the term on Nylanders deal is good for us. I just hope we can get Marner for 8 or less, and Matthews at 12 or less Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted December 4, 2018 Report Share Posted December 4, 2018 Leivo wanted out if he wasn't going to get regular playing time, that was a deal he made with the team. He'll do great in Vancouver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it would be nice to see some moves to improve the defense. Leivo was a pretty good hockey player, just no spot for him. Glad to see they got something for him and he will have a chance to play regularly. I think Carcone will be a Marlie for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
