Would certainly be huge for the Leafs to get him extended, he has been awesome for us.

It would be very smart for Leafs to re sign him

Another Zadorov type contract incoming for a bottom pairing defenseman.

That would hurt, but he has been much better than a bottom pairing dman in Toronto. He carried the pairing with Benoit all last season and it was our shutdown pair. Plays with massive balls. I think he is a solid #4 playing as the #3 in Toronto

 

[Jovavic]

8 year, 6 million cap hit

 

[The Shadow]

lol

Tell me you don’t watch him play without saying it

 

[Chainshot]

McCabe is a strong 4. Extending seems like a solid idea.

 

[TimeZone]

Love McCabe, hope it gets done

 

[KrisLetAngry]

7 years 5.5 million?

He's a top 4 defensemen on the lower end of the side.

 

[Amadeus]

Solid D-man and definitely a second pairing D-man.

The only frustrating thing about him is that he loves to carry the puck and go deep in the offensive zone, and then doesn't really know what to do with it.

 

[Michoulicious]

He's legit. Leaf fans love this guy

Signing a middle pair soon to be 31 y old D after a career year, I wonder what could go wrong.

 

[GirardSpinorama]

You'd think the leafs would have a prospect ready by now to take his place. [mod]

They traded Sandin away to get Cowan when it was clear he wanted to be overpaid.

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Solid 2nd pairing D. Hoping for something around 5x5 for him. Beast.

Ah, the guy who is 6 years younger and signed through his entire prime. But who wouldnt rather extend a 30+ year old at the declining stage, worked out with Muzzin.

 

[Sideline]

If Tanev was worth 6x4.5 Manson is worth 8x4.5 at a minimum.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Another Zadorov type contract incoming for a bottom pairing defenseman.

Maybe, but he might re-sign.

If Tanev was worth 6x4.5 Manson is worth 8x4.5 at a minimum.

Maybe, if he gets toree agency a team might have the chance to offer him that.

No, it didn't, but it has worked out with other defenceman.

 

[HabzSauce]

I like McCabe, he's been so underrated outside of Toronto fans I feel.

lol what? McCabe is twice the dman Sandin is first of all..

No, it didn't, but it has worked out with other defenceman.

That guy trying to use Muzzin as a slam dunk lol. Muzzin was a solid #3 dman for us until he had his career ended by injuries. Then he went on LTIR *shrug* wow we got so screwed there haha

 

[Gurglesons]

Going to be an incredible regrettable deal

 

[HockeyVirus]

Going to be an incredible regrettable deal

I'd do 4.5 x 4 easily

 

[BKarchitect]

Good hard-nosed second pairing defender still in his prime. It won’t be cheap but it’ll be fine. The Leafs need guys like McCabe. Tough as nails and can play.

 

[AcerComputer]

Another Zadorov type contract incoming for a bottom pairing defenseman.

He's been a stud actually. Would keep him over everyone else we have on D.

 

[Jared Dunn]

If they can keep it to 4 or 5 years it'll probably be a good deal, he has been I would say their most consistent D since coming over

 

[HockeyVirus]

I love it always superstars on the laughs, but tram goes no where

Fans are more delusional than a meth head in York

On the other side a yearly 100+ point team that has no good players according to some
