Quoting: RipNasty
So what you are saying is, it's obviously not a problem.
I think it's "possible" it's not a problem. I believe that rationally it's better to spread the CAP more and that would be my preference for building a team. The Oilers, Leafs and Panthers seem to be doing well with so much invested in 4 players. So... it's possible. I just prefer the more well balanced approach.
If it's going to be 50% of the cap with 4 players, they better be VERY good. TOR and FLA faced off and it was close, so that's a good case for your point. I just don't like it.
I like the VGK type approach to spreading salaries around a bit more.
It's too close to call.
But, back to the Marner thing. Paying McD, MacK, Sasha, Tkachuk, etc... $10M, I am good with. Despite Marner's year, I still think he's overpaid.
It's probably a bias. I just can't stand the Leafs.
