Is not Pietro crippling cap-wise like signing a star center after

Description
These scenarios to get Pietrangelo seems to absolutely destroy Toronto's cap for the next 7 years. The last two or three of which he would be on a serious decline skill wise.

Listening to Kypreos podcast with MacLean it really was a key point with them saying that signing Tavares, even as a star center, hurt the Leaf's cap-wise because they had just drafted a franchise center in Matthews making Tavares unnecessary. Matthews would be home grown, Kadri was homegrown and had been scoring 30 goal seasons and then had a down year here last year but was back on pace today for another 30 goal season if you pro rate his goals against the 51 games.

Now fans are willing to look past $2.5 million to $5.5 million defencemen available and want to sign one guy reportedly wanting up to $9 million plus to a contract way past his prime??

How much will homegrown Rielly want on his next contract if the Leafs are willing to give a 30 year old defenceman such huge money?

I had been hearing that Matthews was going to be looking for "Eichel-esque" money which I thought it was a ludicrous amount. I thought NO player would be signed to 8 digit contracts as that team would be hamstrung cap-wise. Then Dubas of course signed Tavares for even MORE than Eichel!! If Dubas hadn't signed Tavares I feel that the Leafs would have had some growing pains with the youth but would have signed Matthews for a bit more than Eichel (something like $10,634,000) for 8 years, Marner would have come in a bit less (probably a bit more than Kypreos's $8.5 MIL but not much more) for 8 years, I thought that Nylander would have come in between $6 and $6.5 MIL but Dubas has him close to that and Kadri would have been here for $4.5 MIL still.

If Tavares was never signed I realize that we would see 15 less goals with Kadri as 2nd line center but Rielly would be captain, there would be lots of cap space to trade for or sign anything the Leafs needed and we would be seeing an 8 year window just starting to open.

This year the Leafs would be drafting Schneider @ 15 OA, Sandin and Liljegren would be developing on the Marlies and we would be discussing what RHD UFA the Leafs could sign with the HUGE cap space. [/rant]

Short rant: I am not sure Leafs should sign Pietrangelo with Tavares on the team

    Yes, signing Pietrangelo would be stupid for the leafs to do.

    With the cap the way it is, this team with Pietrangelo completely implodes in three-four years when Matthews needs another new deal (and probably raise?) and all your peripheral cost controlled pieces are up. Is that worth it? I think I'd rather have a window longer than three years.

    However, it seems a lot of leafs fans do not think this way.

    The back breaking signing probably wasn't Tavares there. If you were going to get Pietrangelo you probably just don't re-sign Muzzin (gasp!) but it's hard to make that call considering everyone kinda just thought Pietrangelo would stay with the Blues. Not having Tavares now would certainly help but that's looking at things in hindsight (though personally I would not have signed Tavares two years ago)

    Nice. Admit what everyone knows: the Tavares deal was dumb and that his contract is something of an albatross, especially for a team like TO. Then, trade him to another team so he can be their albatross. Avs are not going to take on a contract like that when they have Landy and Makar to sign next year and Mac in 3 years. Hard pass from Sakic.

    I think the condition is that IF we get Pietrangelo, eventually, whether its this offseason or next, it means that one of Nylander or Marner gets traded to restore the balance

    people acting like the we're stuck with the Tavares contract smh

    In his last 2 seasons as a leaf, Tavares had 73 goals, 75 assists (148 points) in 145 games.
    In his last 2 seasons as a leaf, Kadri had 48 goals, 51 assists (99 points) in 153 games.

    Playoff stats
    In his last 2 playoff series as a leaf, Tavares had 4 goals, 4 assists (8 points) in 13 games.
    In his last 2 playoff series as a leaf, Kadri was suspended and cost his team the series two years in a row. (1 goal, 3 assists in 6 games, two 5 minute majors at critical points in 2 games)

    I would take Tavares every single day of the week. You're also forgetting Kadri has 2 seasons left before he needs a new contract at 32 years old.
    Tavares is locked up until he is 34 (5 more years). He brings effort, professionalism, and skill/goal scoring ability that Kadri never could.

    I wish we had Kadri on the team, I hate that we traded him. But, between the two guys, I'm taking Tavares all day every day

    Yeah. I was going to read the full description, but then I got to that part, and I just said “Nope.”

    Those guys were fired for a reason.

    Honestly I would love to have Pietrangelo on the Leafs but we cant be sacrificing depth to pay someone already in his 30's 9 - 10 mill and we are already paying 3 players over 10 mill.

    A lot of people are forgetting how much covid affected the leafs plans, the cap would probably be going up to about 84-85 M. Giving the team more flexibility to sign an RHD. Then the following year with the expansion if covid didn't happen I could see the cap to around 86-87M. Dubai couldn't have predicted a pandemic.

    Opps! I wasn't trying to pawn off Tavares on the Avs, I was simply trying to reverse Tavares signing and get Kadri in the lineup as if Tavares hadn't happened.

    The value definitely isn't there for Colorado.

    Kadri 2020 playoffs: 9 goals + 9 assists (18 points) in 15 games, including 5 GWG's.

    Yeah, you're good....

    Keep in mind that in a cap league the comparison isn't just Tavares vs Kadri... it's Tavares vs Kadri + $6.5m capspace (eg. that's equivalent to Landeskog+Graves this season, or Landeskog + an ELC like Makar/Kaut). So again, I take the Kadri contract any day of the week on this Colorado team.

    Yeah, I heard that the projections were $84.5 last year and $88 this year. Would have been a whole different situation for sure...

    That's the tough pill to swallow as a Leafs fan. I had been waiting for that playoff performance for 3 years. It would have at least propelled the Leafs past the Bruins last year. It was so frustrating when he got suspended both playoffs.

    For all we know, Kadri these playoffs may have been a total outlier. His whole career he has been not much of an impact guy (partially because of the costly suspensions maybe). Even this regular season, he only had about 20 goals/36 points.

    What will Kadri's extension look like when he's 32? Factor that into the cap difference as well, because we'd have had to sign him as well, if we'd kept him. Tavares on a bad day produces gobs more offense than Kadri ever could. The only time Kadri was above average was when he played 2 seasons with marner, who ironically seems to give every centre he plays with a career year lmao

    Kadri might be a better fit in Colorado, but the idea that signing Tavares somehow hurt the team is silly. Kadri's production most years was replaced by Kerfoot (who had a god awful injury plagued year this season, I expect a bounce back from him). Barrie was an utter bust. I wish that trade never happened, but like... I would take John freaking Tavares at 11m for 5 years on my team every single day of the week over Kadri at 4.5 for 2 more.

    Also, as was said above, if the cap had gone up, the leafs would've actually been totally fine. Even in a flat cap scenario, they can still make it work, while maintaining the one-two punch of Matthews/Tavares. The idea was Tavares' contract got better every year as the cap increased. It's tougher with the flat cap, but the guy is still a franchise centre and a superstar.

    20 goals and 36 points is nothing to be sneered at considering that it came in 51 games. That's 32 goal and 58 point pace, which is absolutely golden for a 2C.

    Tavares produces more offense sure, but we don't need more offense from our 2C. Our team is already among the highest scoring teams in the league (if not THE highest scoring team, when healthy).

    I never said that Tavares hurt your team. I simply said that Kadri is a better fit for Colorado, and has ~1/3 of the caphit.

    Kadri most likely won't be resigned by Colorado as we'll have Newhook take his place. Kadri's term is actually perfect in that respect.
