(Speculation) Auston Matthews next contract expected to enter 16.7mill per AAV range

Not a fan personally, elite player none the less.

 

If he signs for anything over 12 per, he will never win a cup.

 

Cup favorites rarely have the highest paid NHL players on their roster

 

Laffs are not contenders until they move willy-nilly for better depth overall / spread that money around.

Every single Leafs fan on Twitter has been saying dubas is the best and most sought after gm in the league. Would be hired by someone the day after being let go. 

 

He is the sole reason contracts are being thrown around the way they are, And slowly turning to NBA style of super max deals for everyone and fill in the rest with peanuts lmao. I tried soo hard to see what they see... But I just can't. Another prime example here with a crippling cap hit

Difference between Toronto and Vancouver.

We believe in our hearts. Not in our heads.

Toronto just has blind loyalty.

just had to post this because I wanted to see the discussion that followed:


Per Frank Seravalli (for what it’s worth)

 

Frank Seravalli believes that Austin Matthews next contract will be in the range of 8 years / $133.6 million with an AAV of 16.7mill.

 

 

Should be easy for ARZ to afford that thanks to the league’s escrow fund.

if TO re-signs him for that, it will be fun to watch their following 8 years in cap hell.

So no down side you're saying?

Love the weird TO propaganda on this. First the low end "reports" of dubas is highly sought after, Followed by Matthew's / dubas are very loyal and really like eachother. Followed by this report lmao. 

 

No shizz matthews loves dubas, he roles over with a blank cheque and says fill it in yourself! Don't forget to check off pure signing bonus!! We would all " love " a boss that did that

Simply ridiculous.  Aside from Brad Richards ridiculous deal,  Ovi set the high bar, as a tweener at 18.98 the cap hit on a 13 year deal.   Mathews won't get that.  And even if he did it would be around 15.8.   Which he won't get.

Pretty early to be talking contracts already.

 

That said, he's probably worth that money, though idk if any team can really afford it. Unless he falls off a cliff, I expect Matthews to eventually score 700+ goals in the NHL.
