This makes no sense to me. Bolland is ideally a 3rd line centre who can spot into the top 6 every now and then. How does he refuse a contract like this?

Because the Leafs sat there and praised him at every opportunity last season, and said that him being injured was a main reason for the collapse down the stretch.
Then you also have their VP telling you that the said he wants you on the team and that they will re-sign you.
So pretty much he is squeezing them to try and get as much money as possible before re-signing.
