Leafs politely decline and wish you the best of luck in dumping that contract.

Leafs say hell no because of age and contract. Montreals stuck w. that one.

1st - Nylander will be an elite scorer and Weber is 32
2 - Weber is on a very very bad contract
3 - i'd rather keep Nylander instead of Marner because he has complecity with Matthews
4 - Not so smart to trade a risimg star for an aging one.

Weber is exactly what leafs need, but at his age and progression, for the next 3 years, not 9. Love Weber, but That contract will kill a rising team.

Ya. Weber contract is bad. better to give a 38 yr old 3 yrs at 6.5.

Balsam wouldn't trade Weber for Nylander? Lmao! That's the funniest thing I've ever heard in my life!

Yes the leafs gave a 37 year old Patrick Marleau 3 years at 6.5. He’s been really good this year, probably will be next year and If he's not in year 3, you deal with it. A lot easier to predict and plan 2-3 years down the road than 9 years. If Weber was 28 and had 9 years left, I’d be interested for sure. At 32, not so much. I’d rather them take their chances on either trading for doughty/ OEL this off seasoN if LA and ARI don’t think they can get them signed, or even find a really short term plan and chase one of those big guys in free agency next summer.

Hey Balsam, you do know that Marleaus actual pay goes down each year right? The final year of his contract his pay is in or around 2 million. His contract will be easy to dump in year 3 to a team needing to reach the cap floor. So yes, it is a much better contract than Webers.

Marleaus cap hit is 6.25 across all 3 years. Salary tho is 8.5m, 6m and then 4.25mill.

Weber will only be paid 1 mil per season in the last 3 years of his contract I'm sure that will be just as easy to get rid of to a team trying to reach the cap floor. plus if he retires which I'm betting he will nashville will be the ones paying for it. And paying they will. 8 16 and 24 mil cap hit penalty for them in those last 3 years if he does. or at least that's the last thing I heard.

Yeah at 1million cash to Weber they can probably move him at the end. Only problem is to move those last 3 years, even though it’s only a million cash, you have to have a team who wants a very veteran Dman and has 7.5 mill cap space for 3 straight years. It would have to be a team at the very beginning of a rebuild. No average to good team is taking 7.5 cap hit for a 1 mill player for multiple years. And you’re right about the cap recapture totally screwing Nashville. Just hope he has more loyalty to habs than preds by then. If he retires, he saves the habs and screws the preds, ornhe can just stick around and show up to collect a cheque and hurt the habs cap in an effort not to screw preds.

In an effort to save the preds* (correction at the end of my last post)

Lots of teams with no cash but cap space could rake Weber in last few yrs if contract

Or maybe "hide" him. like robidas or lupul. not sure how much that would cost though.
