Karl Eriksson
Boring!
Not shocked he didn’t want to commit to the franchise. This lets him play for Coyotes before he’s too old.
He literally just signed. That is committing. You're one of the main guys that constantly tried to tell us he'd leave next year as a UFA so anything you say should be taken with a grain of salt.Not shocked he didn’t want to commit to the franchise.

Lol dubas still being blamed like some boogeyman, how many moves does Tree have to make before that card is all used upLeafs were played like a chump organization. Marner on deck for next year with same NTC. Thanks Dubas.
You think Leafs brass didn't want to sign him to max term?the same board that calls Tavares washed thinks the Leafs are screwed for not locking up a guy into his mid-30's
Matthews has already reached the age where max term isn't necessarily a great thing
He got a pretty modest raise after having a few big seasons and winning a bunch of hardware. The problem is his last deal was just too big, so the modest raise puts him into this territory. We can blame your new boy Kyle for that.I guess this shows where Matthews' priorities are.
In Toronto?I guess this shows where Matthews' priorities are.

Frankly im not snd I doubt the team is worried about that. If they don’t get something done in the next 3 years it’s a retool/blow it up situation anyway. 4 year extension with 1 year remaining means 5 hockey seasons.They have to wait until Trelivings fired before they can say anything bad about him. As of now its a brilliant move.
In all seriousness top 3 player in the game right now staying is good. Toronto just wishes it was longer
That would be an absolute disaster signing Draisaitl when he’s 30 to an 8 year deal.Drai and McDavid probably re sign for 13.5 x 8
If he wanted to go home it would have been easy for him like debrincat did. He actually had more leverage than debricat with the NMC. He's just maximizing earnings.Not shocked he didn’t want to commit to the franchise. This lets him play for Coyotes before he’s too old.
Sure, you also said that he was going to leave next summer, and here we are.4 is a lot less than 8. My guess is he figures he cashes in now, then takes a discount with a contender or goes home.
I mean he scored 60 goals year before last , won the mvp and paced for 60 plus the 2 years prior . It’s not that far fetched . Did he play up to that this past season ? No , but doesn’t mean he isn’t in that area most years… specifically the coming ones .Top 5? Yikes
Lmao no they won't he's 25...4 years takes him right to his prime for a huge payday.I feel like some of the people complaining about it only being 4 years are the same people that would have been in here talking shit if the Leafs had signed him for 8 years telling us he's going to be on decline the last 4 years of it.
