It went this long...I have to believe the Nylander camp caved. I'd be curious to know what he was asking for. I don't think he got a bad contract but I'm sure he wanted more.

Sounds like the Nylander AAV over the length of the deal is closer to $7.3m

McKenzie:
First year salary is pro rated $10M salary (6.77 M) plus a full $2M signing bonus. Net number of $8.77M. AAV of $10.2M.

In out years, the AAV is $6.996M.

In year two, base salary is $700K, SB of $8.3M.

In remaining years, $2.5M in base salary plus $3.5M SB.

I think the number is still higher than what they wanted to give him but manageable for this year and definitely tradeable going forward if required

Clarification from Bob McKenzie:
"In actual dollars received, nothing to do with cap hits or AAVs, William Nylander is receiving $41.77M over six years, which averages $6.96M per year."

Sounds like the official AAV does end up around $6.9m. Confusing stuff

Which translates to a trade in the final 2 years.

Curious to see what Babcock does with the lineup.

leafs and raptors winning championships in the same year would be so cool!
