The only thing we have, as of right now, is as verbal promise from Dubas to not trade Willie. That means nothing in business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be traded once Marner and Matthews need new contracts, and if not then they will become the new Oilers with cheap crap players filling holes because they over payed on forwards.

What are Matthew's and Marner's value? Matthew's 11 - 13 million? Marner 8 - 10 million? You start going down their contract lists and it gets ugly quickly. Tavares, Nylander, Reilly etc. You can't win being the Oilers, can you? Top 6 and top 2 making huge amounts, the rest making minimum and interchaging them nightly.

JM_ Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 can we pin this on the front page of CDC so we can all remember never to listen to Kypreos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rekker Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I heard that on NHL Network today. So over the course of Nylander's contract they need to re sign or replace, under the cap, Mathews, Marner, Reilly, Gardiner, Andersson, Kapanen, Kadri. All to big, big raises. And Nylander stays? All while trying to upgrade that D. This will get interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that defense, they aren't going anywhere far. Should have traded for Doughty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top 6 and top 2 making huge amounts, the rest making minimum and interchaging them nightly. Definitely predicting Matthews $10-12 range, no way he gets more than McDavid, but it is Toronto so you never know Definitely looks like Marner is in the $8-9 range by the sounds of it. One thing Toronto has that Oilers don't is a decent goalie, I'll give them that, but Torontos D needs help, so they will or should move one of the forwards probably in the off season and acquire a D or 2, or they do it at the trade deadline this year if all their players are healthy. I do expect them to move Marleau don't see them keeping him for next year for his last year on contract, throwing out a proposal Toronto trades for Subban with Nylander and a prospect maybe. Oilers need a goalie and better D, similar to the Canucks, no way I see Oilers winning or making it far into the playoffs until they address that issue.

I can't fully blame them as adding a piece like JT is just so tempting. But is he what they need? Time will tell I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am betting that Toronto is relying on big cap ceiling jumps (expected to go up to $83 million next season), and some favorable cap circumvention assistance from the league to get them out of the mess.

Oh they'll be doing everything they can to get the cap up as high as possible, I'm sure they're taking Bettman out for meals daily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
