No one is saying they will have cap problems this year... You can't possibly believe anyone is arguing that.

If they sign Nylander, Marner and Matthews, They will have 50 + million tied up in they're top 6 forwards next year. After that they have Rielly and zaitsev for 10 and Anderson for 5. So they need a bottom 6, a bottom 4 and a backup making a million or so each.

It's a good problem and they are making the right play by freezing Nylander. Is their system deep enough to feed that kind of roster need? Guess we'll find out! My guess is they fall on their face because Leafs.
