From his point of view his stats are comparable to Marner and we all know Marner's going to get $8+ million. I can see why he's not willing to accept substantially lower than what Marner's going to get. He doesn't owe the Leafs any discount because he knows they paid for Tavares and they are going to pay for Marner and Matthews. I don't blame him at all for what he's doing here.
