I actually don’t think the Leafs could trade Nylander now even if they wanted to. I read somewhere his NMC took immediate effect, I don’t know if that’s possible, but apparently Friedman was talking about it, allegedly according to what I read.

Nobody is trading for that 8x11.5 anyway imo. And it’d be a terrible look on us to trade him before he plays a game of an 8 year extension unless it was a pre-agreed sign and trade situation but we know it’s not.

Yeah, he has a full NMC now.

It says the same on CapFriendly too.

I believe the CBA allows for any NTC/NMC changes in an extension to count for the remaining of the previous contract too. This is why extensions are only allowed in the final season of the contract.

Can you imagine how livid the rest of the league fans would be if we missed the playoffs and ended up with the #1 pick lol. Not saying I want him that result, just a random thought that crossed my mind
A more horrible timeline I thought of today is trading our first, missing the playoffs, and that team winning the lotto with our pick.

I'd hope we are securely enough in a playoff spot (minimum top 3 in the division, although ideally top 2) before serious thought is given to dangling the 1st as trade bait. I'd rather do nothing/nothing major than risk doing anything silly.

I wonder how big our lead will be tonight before we blow it.

Can't wait to see more of Keefe's line combos tonight, maybe he'll go with Tavares, Reaves and move Brodie up to the wing so we can have the slowest forward line in the NHL.

Interesting if true. I thought the current contract had the no move beginning in July. I can’t see how a contract that doesn’t take effect until July 2024 can have clauses that are active now, and I’m pretty sure they can’t renegotiate an existing contract.

I hope they are negotiating with Berube or Gallant behind the scenes and will turf Keefe once they come to an agreement with one of them. don’t care about the result tonight. Keefe has to go, at the very least, regardless.
Scott Bowman wouldn't be able to get this team turned around. The problem is in the dressing room, the bench is the least of their problems.

I frigen love the guy.
But there’s 1 person on this team , in the biggest letter role - and I don’t think he’s the guy to rally the troops.

I know jack shit about the room, but I don’t think I’m wrong.

Back to Jones tonight?
Cmon man what kind of question is that?

They were just getting around to booing MM at the Allstar game.

It could've been really gnarly convo

Good luck to the boys tonight, I look forward to the highlights

I wonder sometimes who is running the show. The players or the coach.
Mitch marner a week ago said holmberg is elite
Matthews said the same thing. Next game knies is on fourth line and holmberg is with Mitch and Auston.
Crazy right especially when he couldn’t even get into the line up
