Is he still gonna be good for most of that deal? Probably, it only takes him to 33.
The cap is going to be $100M in a few years.
Locking up Matthews, now Nylander, and I’m assuming eventually Marner will keep their window open throughout.
Bring back Tavares on a reduced salary, or use his money on a big ticket goalie, and take your shot.

I think it does create a trickle effect for them though.
I doubt Marner will want to take anything less than $12.5M when he gets renewed now.
With a $100M cap they might be able to make it work - but it's going to probably be $37-38M for those 3 forwards.
