How the Leafs can pay Hyman

By giving him the next David Clarkson contract?

7M might be a bit too much to take him to 35.

This is an absurd contract imo. This was merely to show that the Leafs could sign him to whatever they wanted.

I am tired of people saying "the leafs cant pay anyone else cause they pay their top 3 $33M..."

Dubas has structured this team to have expiring contracts every summer so that he has the freedom to do what ever he needs to keep the players he wants.

In reality, Hyman shouldnt get much more than $5M which means the leafs would have an extra $2M to add to the team above.

This is just to show how it could be done to shut everyone up saying "they cant afford to keep him"

$7M is a bit high and definitely too high for that term

I’d say your overpaying Hyman by a lot maybe make it 4M then I’d say your fine
