Nick Kypreos, co-host of Real Kyper & Bourne, joins JD Bunkis to discuss what Auston Matthews’ next contract might look like, if any progress has been made in William Nylander’s negotiations, and if the Maple Leafs are better positioned now than when the season ended.

Go leafs go
Sick of Matthews. I'll take the 15 mil he"s gonna want and use it elsewhere.
Trade Nylander. Get a top defenceman while his value is at an all time high.
they need to get rid of Murrays contract
Matthews is going to leave a mark. Think 14.5. Goalie is going to be an issue. The cap is hideous. Spilled milk is not trading Marner, that time has passed. Shanny, blew it. Marner was always the asset to get a sweet return on. Willy is going to get his money, just not in Toronto.
I said same thing when these contracts were initially signed the term was too short and walked them dangerously into free agency. Marner’s contract is too much for the term i at the time was guessing $8 or $9 mil Dubas caved badly. Nylanders $$$ I was ok with as I figured him to be around $6 or $7 at the time. Interestingly when the contracts are due to expire for Matthews and Nylander, that’s when Dubas “is not sure if he wants to continue as GM”
Im disappointed that Shein didn't get signed
I think leafs looking for 8 he wants 5 …just a hunch
I see no way they can be under the cap to start the season if they don't trade one of the big 4 this off season.
Unless they let Samsonov go, put Murray on ltir and go with Woll and some goalie on a minimum contract.
With this dragging on it makes you wonder if Matthew's is in no hurry to sign and will play out his contract and become a UFA. If that's the case then behind the scene Treliving is doing everything he can to get him signed and that could be why this is taking longer than it should, Matthews holds all the leverage here… Nylander will become a UFA he doesn't get what he wants. If the gap is too big then they need to trade him before the deadline, you can't let him walk for nothing.
If Nylander is asking 10.5 right now, The Leafs should take it. It will only get worse if they wait till free agency.
Treeliving was a genius to walk away from Brodie. He should the same now.
