Thread: Magic Mitch Disappears
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Justinv62</b></div><div>My argument is that Marner is a 100 point player who is strong defensively whether you trust him in the playoffs or not. He's the guy who gets you to the playoffs. Johnson is a good young player and the 4th pick is valuable but those are never guaranteed and the chance either one becomes a top 10 scorer in the NHL is not super high. Marner is going to garner a lot. Look at what Eichel went for coming off injury or Ryan O'Reilly to Buffalo.</div></div>

Horrible comparison. Eichel had term, and eichel is better.

Leafs fans are so much fun, in one breath, "must trade marner!" in the next, "but he's incredible, you'll get so much for him."

No, he's a pending UFA. He just looked absolutely horrible in the playoffs. Everyone knows the leafs want to move him. he's massively overpaid. he isn't getting much. a mid first round pick? sure. that's likely the ceiling.

Thread: cup year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SirRobo</b></div><div>8 year deals bring them both to 37 yrs old. Its a small AAV now but if you use some foresight its not actually a bad deal. Lets say you give bertuzzi a generous 6m for the next 4 years. That’s still 6.2m shy of the guaranteed money he’d be getting from this 8yr deal. And then at 33 years old, you’re not getting many favourable contracts from there. He’s got kids now.. you think he wants to pick up and move the family every 2-3 years? Nah. This is his home. And they have the chance to something really special and go down as a Ontarian hero’s. Not to mention the economics of having their career earnings front loaded so that they can invest it. You know mlse will have no problem structuring 90% of the deal as a signing bonus. Got nothing to do with luck pal. They’ll have their choice, and they’re entitled to that, but you could verywell see a very long and surprisingly low aav here</div></div>

no if you use foresight you realize that the cap is set to skyrocket, and this is horrible, and delusional.

everyone says no. this stinks.

bertuzzi at 33 years old with a $110M cap can easily get another 3x7 deal. this offer is trash.

i mean, i don't even think this is subjective at this point. First issue is that Provorov is awful. he's really bad. If you look at the bruins back end, obviously Lindholm and Lohrei are ahead of him on the left side. They're not picking up his contract to play him on the third pair.....
then factor in again that he's REALLY bad.
Now let's start to consider his bigotry. Not sure if you've ever been to massachusetts, but the intolerance around sexual orientation isn't tolerated. It would be a brutal PR move to pick him up, which I think the bruins would absolutely do (they have in the past), if he was good, and didn't have a horrible contract. but he's not, and he does. No shot the bruins would ever even take the call about acquiring him.
