McMann seems to have an effective style of play, well rounded. 1.35 is a good number

Finally .Toronto did something right this year.After his 2 years if things go well for him his next contract could be double.Toronto needs to find a coach that can teach the power play and players that can play on it.

Great deal I like the player and the contract

[@paulvautour7812]

Definitely need a few reasonable contracts like this one

[@mattsmith6857]

I’d rather most of the cap space be spent on a better Defence core. In the offseason.

I like the signing I dont like the term..... At some point the leafs front offices need to have some kind of foresight and take some risks on these guys. The fact the leafs continue to sign these 1-2-4 year deals (minus Nylander) is the reason IMO the leafs will not win the cup with these players. EVERY other team almost agknowledged they had star players and out of their ELCs it was a big number at the time but they signed them to their 8 year deals. Resulting is cups for Brins who did it with Pasta, Marchand and Bergeron. Tampa won the cup becayse guys like Kucherov and Stamos were signed to these 8 year long term deals and by the end they were team friendly allowing the team to really bulk out their roster. The leafs continue to want to every year want to pay these guys market value and never want to reap the rewards down the line. Its lie theyre afraid. IMO. McMann being at age 27 , hes coming into his prime now. They play him in the top 6. 2nd PK Minutes. IMO hes a hybrid between Hyman and Marchment. He should have been locked in for 4 years. MINIMM 3 years. 4 years gets him to 32 when he should start his decline. 4 years at 2M for me would have been more then fine for me for this player. Expecially considering the cap is going up and 2M now will be 1.25M-1.5M in a year or two. Torontos failure to sign these players long term is their achilles heel. I get it they seem to want to have a clean slate once Tavares contract comes off the books to really build this team properly. The only players they have signed after Tavares contract expires are Matthews, Nylander, Reilly, Kampf and Reeves.and now Mcmann. Thats it. and thats only until the end of next season. They have a real chance now to be while theres a flat cap to take advantage and sign their guys to long term contracts knowing that in 8 years the cap is gunna be huge. Probably in the 115-120M range. Matthews Should have NEVER been able to sign for anything less then 7 seasons. I dont care if he wanted 14.5M you do it and you move out a guy like Reeves to make up that difference. Treliving is continuing to do the same mistakes Dubas did . which makes me believe its probably Shannahan doing alot of these deals not Treliving.

They can’t close out games so whatever difference he makes is offset

[@xrsroofingsolutionscanada2151]

Up next get rid of Liljegren and extend Benoit.

[@scottcampbell5536]

Too bad his first real season will be a playoff exit in round 1.
