Taxes don’t make up that difference. Even if they did - is that what Leafs fans are going to use an excuse for bad contracts?

Well yes they do. Nylanders take home is right around the same as Reinharts take home after taxes. I actually don’t mind the Nylander deal. I think at 11.5 he’s paid appropriately. Back to back 40 goal seasons. Was severely underpaid on his last contract. It’s a tad rich but for what he brings and a rising cap it makes sense.

Florida teams absolutely have an unfair advantage when it comes to contracts. It is something the league should look into because you can keep contracts lower in no tax states

Wow, what a bizarre dream. The Leafs gave Lily 3 million and then Tanev got 5 so we had no money left! Domi at 3.5. How much cap we got left?
 
Forwards:
For me, Lindholm is the gold star, two-way #2c for the immediate future. Almost inconceivable to make a forward the most costly addition this year, but the fit is perfect. Firms a second line for a long time. His projected AAVis all over the place, with reports as high as 8/8+, but that’s a bit ridiculous. 7 sounds right after an off year offensively.
Playing along Willy in a strong hockey market would be appealing I’d think?
Then there’s Stephenson, Monahan, both would be okay, but not the same fit for me. Wennberg would be a discount light version of Lindholm .
Michael McLeod is an interesting not-qualified guy. Local kid, RHC, decent scoring rate. My sleeper for today…..would like this dude on a short deal to see what’s up.
Jack Roslovic might wanna come play on AM’s wing, should be a reasonable sign and a capable C. Also a favorite sleeper.
Wingers….so many still. I’d wait til day two and shop then unless there’s a guy wanting to be here on the min….Raddysh a sneaky option. Skinner if he takes a bath on AAV to play on a playoff team. Barely need any anyhow, unless they’ve got some C experience.

Outgoing: bonuses are paid….so if there *IS* a Marner deal, do it soon so you can use the money.
I think a market for Kampf and Jarnkrok opens up in a couple days, when the pool thins some.

Edit to add: sone insiders suggested that Perron was a sone deal. But, where is he supposed to play? Serious question.

Still think Florida is gonna regret that contract a few years in. Don’t see him repeating this season



Why should we be disappointed? We can’t do anything about state income tax.

Actually Reinhart is probably worth about $7.5-8M, so it's not a terrible deal.

Let's just not call it a steal and compare him to Nylander.

Is it mere folly to wish for Zadorov and Montour?
Click to expand...
Not impossible but that seems unlikely without any other moves.

I'm thinking it's going to be

1. Tanev,
2. Either a top 4 D or good 3C. Maybe Henrique or Dillon tier rather then Montour or Pesce tier.
3. Stolarz/Cheap goalie

When I look at the cap, that extra 500 k- 1 m overpayment to Liljegren really hurts a lot.
