I'm not so sure, he went on a cup run with MTL and this was the players tribune OP referenced (for context this was before the cup run even happened).

Apparently his wife really loved Montreal and I know he is still close with Suzuki, Caufield, and Evans. MTL has the cap space to accommodate Toffoli and Monahan returns - the pair played together in junior too and might be convinced to come back to MTL together as well. I definitely wouldn't count MTL out is all I'm saying.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jonh514</b></div><div>This amount of money/term proposal is not reasonable.

If he takes a shorter deal, the money has to be higher. If it's in the 5-6M range it has to be longer. Look at Alex Killorn last year. I can't imagine him signing a different deal than that one.</div></div>

Killorn is a fair comparison if you're Toffoli's agent, but I also think Killorn took the best offer he could get on the market and went with it. If that's what Toffoli wants too he could probably get it, but if he chooses MTL (or LA) as other pointed out he might take a more reasonable deal.

I think $5.5M × 4 years could get it done for both sides potentially. Any more and MTL might want to reconsider the impact it could have on their window in future seasons.

Totally reasonable. Frankly I wish all MTL fans shared that point of view and stopped regurgitating the same trade over and over on this platform

He’s polarizing outside of ANA because the media’s portrayal of his flashy highlights, the fact that he’s outgoing, and because he got a chel cover without the type of performance that warrants it. In ANA we love him for what he is, which is a creative and dynamic threat on offense who’s adored by his teammates and fans alike for how much he loves playing the game. No problem with the league hating him, I’d like to see him in a Ducks sweater for his career
