Nylander signs 6-year contract

cap44 said:
how about a trade with poor Edmonton to help us both out. Nylander for Darnell Nurse

I'd say Edmonton probably wouldn't do this trade, which when you think about it is probably a good enough reason for the Leafs to not want to make it either.

I kinda like Nurse but he's more Kapanen in value than Nylander IMO.

Who's higher in value, Kapanen or Nylander?  ???

Nylander is better but not sure on value until Kapanen signs a new contract.  But if Oiler's are selling a trade of Nurse, Kapanen will make for unhappy fans.

Kapenan by a long shot

No. This is incorrect.

Almost exact same age and size. Play the same position for the same team. Nylander has twice as many games played and 3.5 times as many points.

Meghan is a Babeaholic. Sorry but she could be my GM

Always great to see a woman reduced to her looks but beyond that wouldn't a babeaholic be someone addicted to Babes as opposed to one herself?

It's a "Wayne's World" thing...

Nope. In Wayne's World it's "If she were a President she'd be Baberaham Lincolnn".

Right, the operative joke there being substituting Babe for something that rhymes like Abe. Not just inserting Babe into a random word.

Don't you worry man, one of these days I'm going to get you to understand how good jokes work.

Have to consider contract when deciding value.

True, but whole body of work and future value should also be considered. Looking at the contract in a vacuum doesn't tell you anything.
 
This is one of the most succinct and cogent descriptions of Nylander/Marner I've seen

Never suggested in vacuum, but above I suggested you need to know Kapanen next contract before being able to even think about comparing their value. Kapanen at $2 million might present greater value than Nylander. Kapanen at $5 million changes it completely for me.
