I`m pretty sure every other team in the league is happy with this deal! If I would be a Leaf-fan, not so much...
This year Matthews and Hintz had identical stats /min played. Hintz is locked up at 8.5M until 2031. Matthews needs 13.5M shortterm and over 14M longterm. The greediest player in the league. Well, next cup in 2065 in Toronto?
Yup, players have been vastly underpaid since the 2004-05 lockout. Joe Sakic made 16 million in 1998! That's like what, 30 million today? LolThis. Players should have been doing this for years. But this good ole boy league has forced and controlled how deals are given. Glad the new generation is tryin to modernize nhl. The fact that not all the gms speak to each other is hilarious and should never have been leaked. Makes this look like a shitty private business. And we see it in how rules that apply to one team dont to another. Player power was always coming ... took 2 decades longer than it should have.
Agreed. Shh dont talkabout 98 salarycap small market team need saving bootlickers will show up with pitchforks.Yup, players have been vastly underpaid since the 2004-05 lockout. Joe Sakic made 16 million in 1998! That's like what, 30 million today? Lol
Countless? Not sure I agree with you there. And as far as we know, McDavid got as much as he could at that time.McDavid, took a discount for his team….
What’s unreasonable is you because you choose to willfully ignore the countless examples of players taking a discount for various reasons.
Awful deal for him.And Matthews will get it
TO gives him anything he wants
Sets him up nicely at 28ish to get an insane 7/8 year deal
Sergei Fedorov made 28 million $ in 1997-1998 for 43 total games.Yup, players have been vastly underpaid since the 2004-05 lockout. Joe Sakic made 16 million in 1998! That's like what, 30 million today? Lol
This sounds like women who think they should be paid the same as men in sports.don't blame Matthews or the Leafs, blame the NHL

youre pretty far off!!MacGinnon is the guy with no fifty goal seasons no Hart trophy and only one hundred point season who's going on 32 in a year or two right?
Willie will be traded. Smart move by him to wait yo see if Matthews gave some money up. Matthews only thinking of himself. Willy needs to do the same

no after a 3 year deal takes him to 28/29 if hes currently 25 turning 26
New Jersey too!Meanwhile, Buffalo's over here like "Our top 2 centers for a combined $14.2M for the next 7 years? Why yes, yes please".
it takes him to 29/30 he turns 26 sept 15th right when taring camp starts. he has 1 more year on his current deal and then add 3 years to that he would be 30 when he plays his 1st game on the contract after this assuming its a 3 year EXT.Oh my bad. Thought I saw 5 yr deal proposed.
Leafs will give up 400 goals this yearSee I'm not sure Willie will be traded because the Leafs are in win now mode, and we know that because every move that Treliving has made points to that.
Tyler Bertuzzi is a win now move
Max Domi for the Leafs is a win now move because he's an upgrade on Kerfoot.
Klingberg over Holl for what was needed which was a D man that can generate offense is a win now move.
Even Ryan Reaves is a win now move.
The Leafs are in win now mode, and when you are in win now mode you don't trade a 40 goal 80+ point

The cap is a lie. All it does it benefit owners, not the fans or the players.
Do you take a discount for your job?The only interest he has is lining his pocket. He's never taken a discount to win nor will he. Feel bad for Leafs they had so much promise right before signing Tavares. Guess this means Nylander is gone soon as he's not taking discount either now after his comments earlier about players taking discounts.
If Matthews didn’t want to sign for 8 yrs (we’ve never heard he did) what was he supposed to do?if kyle dubas had locked him up 8 years the leafs wouldn't be in this position right now.
negotiate.If Matthews didn’t want to sign for 8 yrs (we’ve never heard he did) what was he supposed to do?
