With the Cap going up that $4M is nothing for what he brings. poop the kid replaced Marner and the top line got better. Bertuzzi even improved when it was Bertuzzi, Matthews, Domi.

I think it's time to find more players like Domi that the Leafs COULD give 4+ year contracts to. Gives the team a actual fuking identity and "team" vibe. 1-2 year deals suck for the "team" mentality IMHO.

Until the Leafs can get a "team" together and not just the Core 4 with a bunch of rotating complementary players, they will never get passed the first round

Ummm, they already got past the 1st round....without domi.
Domi is not the answer, a cheap two year deal sure, but Team identity is year by year.
The cap increase is already absorbed by willies increase.

I would like Domi back as well. 2 x 4m or 3 x 3.5m or 4 x 3.25M. This is what 40-50 point players get in the league these days. And Domi has quite the sack on him for such a small guy. If this guy could just up his consistence level, he would be worth quite a bit more.

Yep. They could clean up a few other teams problem contracts on D. But from everything I have seen and heard so far, I don't think they are looking to help any other teams out for futures.

Wow
Our company lost 11m this year, but they just handed out a charity 14% annual bonus 😳

So desperate to lose employees

Last year we lost 15m, and they gave us 14% bonus

Anyone need a job?

bonuses are often awarded in lieu of (bigger) raises, cost controlling for future years

It's why you're foolish to accept a small bonus over a small raise, or even a moderate bonus.........unless you're about to retire.

High this year, roughly bang on for the next 2, and low the last year since the cap should be over well over $100 mill by then. Hockey contracts will begin to look notably different.

I hope you're right. He's also a power forward that could decline relatively quickly.

So long as there isn’t another cap restraint I think it will be fine tbh. So long as it rises things will look far better.
