Inconvenient truth along with the truth that Marner is their best player and it is highly unlikely that they will get into a pissing match with him.
Like I said much earlier this was worst kept secret around the Leafs. Paul told everyone he talked to. This was widely circulated. And Kyper reported it very very late. He only did that because it was all verbal so he took a bit of a risk. Paul talking to his friends. Unless someone taped his conversations no one else would know.
Maybe go back last summer to your own numbers, revisionism much?
Matter of fact, go look at every thread here last year and tell me what you find. Cheers.
No.. More like there is a range of comparable and I have compared them to the high end of each because that is where their salary has been compared.
Might be something about performance but just a guess
Not even considering the fact that money now is worth more than money later: signing bonus taxes depends on their principal residence. For Matthews, he took a lot in bonuses because the tax rate in Arizona is lower than the effective tax rate would be in Toronto. I'm not sure about nylander, but it could also be the case.
If Marner's principal residence is in Toronto, a signing bonus heavy contract will not give him a tax advantage. It could even be a disadvantage because it would all be taxed at a high rate, whereas salary is taxed based on game location. The average tax rate over a season will be lower than the tax rate in some places like Toronto.
Kipper reported what Paul Marner told him. Same as he knew about the riff between Babs and Mathews parents talk to him. He was very vocal about Babs not playing Mitch and him and Paul Marner talked a lot.I literally never said numbers weren't exchanged, but that does not make Kypreos' "report" of 8x9m accurate.
They are separate things altogether.
Just like with the “no tax states”, it’s difficult to find how it specifically works and get to the ACTUAL money saved by such tax benefits. There’s that article recently that said that Stone only saved $75k a year by playing in a city with no state tax. $75k a year? So why do Tampa players sign for millions less per year?
Similarly, I can’t find a specific break down of tax benefits in signing bonuses. This article says that signing bonuses offer tax breaks that “vary by state and province”.

Regardless, it is INDISPUTABLE that a heavily front loaded contract paid in signing bonuses is of a MAJOR financial advantage for a player. Do you deny this?
If not, why aren’t we seeing any cap relief from Dubas’ contracts?
Nylander at 6.9 playing with Matthews all season next season will prove to be a bargain. I will say it here first, Nylander will eclipse 70 points next season. His deal will turn into a bargain. And Matthews will eclipse 50 goals and 100 pts next season playing with him.
This being said, Marner will never score 30 goals let alone 50. Yes he will get his assists but this league is goal driven and Marner should not eclipse more then 9.5 million per season. A contract comparable to Kucherov seems fair.
You want me to relitigate the reasons? Maybe you should look at 5x5 p/60 rankings. Maybe primary points. Maybe you should explain performance differences between Matthew's and Marner and justify why there should be a 2mm+ differential.He was number 16 or something in league points.
Only 1 player who finished above him (McDavid) in points makes 11. Why would he make 11 ?

And we conveniently leave out all important term again....Did you go back and search my numbers.
I don't remember every saying Matthews would get less then 11. I actually brought up many times that he won't be paid less then Tavares.
Nylander I never thought would sign for less then 6.5 min.
Not sure where you got the numbers from.
