So who knows, and maybe Dubas caves to the numbers and then sees what he can get after the season OR he already has a deal lined up but the acquiring team is hopeful WN comes down a bit more on the AAV.
I can also see where WN says nope and goes and signs in the KHL for the rest of the season and then has his agent negotiate a trade to a destination he is willing to accept in the off season that is agreeable to the Leafs.

I suppose from our point of view it's hard to predict seeing we don't know how far the Leafs and Nylanders are really apart. If it's only $300k a season as reported you have to imagine it gets done but term may also factor in. They were just talking on 960 about how his dad was supposedly very stubborn and difficult to deal with so it's probably a pretty difficult situation for the Leafs with their cap situation and Matthews and Marner contracts coming up.
