Exactly what I've been saying for years and why I love throwing the "overpaid" tag at our fellow posters whenever Marner does incredible things.the thing about Marner is that - sure - they paid him $1m too much, but after signing he went and established himself as a top 10 player and worth his cap hit.
and it’s not like an extra milly would have done anything to help out the team over the top.
I dont think its overpaid but the term should be more than 5 -6 years to 16 and 34 handed out by DubyEvery second contract for 5+ years and 11%+ since 2005, and ppg the year before they signed.
Crosby - 1.52 ppg, 5 years 17.30%
McDavid - 1.22, 8 yrs16.67%
Malkin - 1.29, 5 yrs 15.34%
Matthews -1.07, 5 yrs 14.64%
Marner - 1.14, 6 yrs 13.38%
Eichel - .93, 8 yrs 13.33%
Kopitar - .94, 7 yrs 11.99%
Stamkos - 1.11, 5 yrs 11.66%
Rantanen- 1.18, 6 yrs 11.35%
Draisaitl - .93, 8 yrs 11.33%
Kane - 1.07, 5 yrs 11.09%
Toews - 0.89, 5 yrs 11.09%
Its not so much that Marner is overpaid for what he does, as much as its the most expensive contract given out to a similar player for no real reason.
Dubas just didn't do a great job of establishing a reasonable team cap structure.
After reading how impossibly unlucky Leafs were to not win the cup last year I feel real good.About a month until our first exhibition game!
This is the year.
Because he is President and hired himself as GM.Dubas wasn't big on being Gm here. He also didn't like being left hanging last year despite what he claimed.
Guy got 40 million and has more say than any exec in the NHL.
