Back to Nylander that's an interesting one. Admittedly, he's probably worth that money, on any team. The term is a bit high, but he's been a responsible guy over the years, putting his playoff cowering behind him. I get that Tavares' contract is close to being off the books but the lineup becomes top heavy payroll wise. I'm just not sure what they do to improve their back end in the cap world. Treliving hasn't done anything wrong with this apparently signing, but he's got some navigating to do with his Klingberg and Reeves contracts. I don't think he has it in him to find diamonds in the rough as he likes paying extra for role players.
