It would for all intents and purposes be a UFA offer for a super star forward. In that context 4 years is fantasy.
you didn't read my post obviously...don't trade for Nylander

trade those players for assets, make it known that you would offer Nylander a ridiculous contract as UFA the Leafs couldn't possibly match. You don't think his agent is poking around??

I was responding to "the Leafs aren't trading him to anyone let alone the Flames"

okay good for them, so what is the plan if he won't sign their 11M offer (I wouldn't) Every single day Nylander gains more leverage. Honestly it reminds me a lot of Gaudreau but the player is younger and more sought after.
