Saw something on the Twitter suggesting the Leafs offered 1 year at $16m then a 7 year extension.

Sounds unlikely.

I think technically they could offer him a 8 year deal at that point.

They can resign him for an 8 year on Jan 1st. (If he signs a 1 year deal at 16). Tecncally speaking they can overpay the 1st year and get a better 2nd deal.

Won't happen...

Anyway, 1h30 left for the Isles...

So would that sort of approach clasify as out of the box thinking?  If so do you think that would impress Tavares?

Nah, they'll announce in about an hour and half that he's on board for the 8.

Or not.

In any event, I'm going to bed, friends.  When I wake up tomorrow afternoon and login, I want to see a pic of Tavares holding his blue and white C-crested Leafs jersey, a smile of joy illuminating his face.

I actually think it would be brilliant if, say, around 5pm this afternoon his agent moseys onto Twitter to say "John wants more time to go through his binder.  We'll be back in touch in a couple of weeks or so."

Sportsnet has a nice bait click article up right now.

Chris Johnston doesn't strike me as the kind of reporter to say something like that based on absolutely nothing but I agree it seems pretty misleading to put that in the headline with nothing really behind it.
 
Dreger is saying whispers are it is the Leafs. Be pretty disappointing now that if that turns out to be wrong.

Did he say that on TV? Can't find a tweet
 
Well, no matter what happens now the Leafs are closer than they ever were with Stamkos.
