I just find it funny only all Leaf players are signing offersheets and not anyone else
...
No offersheets in 5 years, no player switches teams since Dustin Pener in 07, yet it's a lock everyone is gone from Toronto.
No one knows how many offersheets are offered (but not signed).
No one knows how often agents have used these unknown number of offersheets as leverage.
Perhaps the Nylander camp had an offersheet in hand and told the Leaves he would sign it if they couldn't iron out a deal.
It would explain why they were seemingly so calm and collected right to the end... and why they won the war.
There could have been 100 offersheets offered since "Pener" (sic) for all anyone knows.
If offersheets are offered to Matthews/Marner it will hurt the Leaves one way or another, even if we don't hear about them.
And I say;
if both are unsigned on July 1; offersheets are likely - why?
Because Leaves will be in Cap Hell
... plus we're talking about 2 RFAs at the same time.
Be prepared for your Leaves to have to overpay.
Again.
