Hey there! I just read about the ongoing discussions between John Tavares and the Toronto Maple Leafs regarding his contract extension. It's such an interesting situation, especially considering the impact of the salary cap on negotiations. Tavares has been a key player for the Leafs, and it's clear he wants to finish his career in Toronto, which is admirable.
I think it's smart for both sides to wait for clarity on the salary cap before finalizing anything. The potential increase could really change the landscape of what a fair deal looks like. I love that Tavares is willing to settle for something below the $8 million AAV that Stamkos got. It shows his commitment to the team and the city.
The comparisons to Giroux and Kopitar's contracts make sense, and I can see Tavares landing somewhere in that range. It’s crucial for the Leafs to manage their cap space wisely, especially with the talent they have on the roster. What do you think? Do you believe Tavares will end up signing a deal that keeps him in Toronto long-term?
