That's a lot of money for Matthias, but honestly, a deal like this will also show just how overpaid Tyler Bozak really is as well, especially now that he won't be riding shotgun with a sniper like Kessel anymore.

$2.3m for Matthias?
I guess Bernier is worth about $16m then?
Does this spell the end of a center on the leafs roster? Bozak, Kadri, Holland, Matthias, and Arcobello. Bailey and Leo are centers too.
JvR-Bozak-Lupul
Komarov-Kadri-Panik
Booth-Matthias-Parenteau
Winnik-Arcobello-Sill
Holland, Nylander, Brown, Bailey, Marner, Gauthier, Kapanen, Leivo and Leipsic are all “push for spots” guys.
12 Team, H2H, Keep 6 (in Bold)

C: Horvat, Trocheck

RW: Pavelski (C), Giroux (C), Svechnikov (LW)
D: Fox, Makar, Bouchard, Morrissey, Gudas
Util: Meier (LW, RW)
G: Oettinger, Georgiev, Samsonov, Woll
I wouldnt be surprised to see Matthias play on the wing a time or two as well.

Matthias isn't *that far* off of Beleskey, and TO got him for half the price. Good signing. He can play wing too (might even be better there).

How is this number so bad for Matthias? I was just going to write what UW said but I remember a few people saying Beleskey was a good one and they're not far off at all, actually, Matthias has really good underlying numbers. I think it's a pretty good deal.
We get one of these - Don't waste it.

Signing guys like Matthias and Arcobello and Panik and Parenteau to reasonable $$$ also allows them to be traded throughout the year or at the deadline for draft picks or prospects. No need for big $$ long term deals right now. Decent signing. Not trying to turn a rock into a diamond these days anyway.
Just because Beleskey's number is $3.8m, doesn't make him a good signing either.
Matthias had 18goals (nice) but only 9assists (awful, in 78gp). And he did it on 13.6% shooting, which is about 4% higher than his career average.
Beleskey had 22goals (nice) but only 10assists (bad, in 65gp). And he did it on 15.2% shooting, which is about 6% higher than his career average.
Yes, if one is comparing Matthias ($2.3m) to Beleskey ($3.8m) than the contract number is decent.
But these are Clarkson-lite type players.
These guys that get 20G and only 10A... for me, it should be a big red flag.
I cringe when I see those guys get contracts.
(effin GMs saying "Well, we need somebody to put the puck in the net...")
Here's some more past NHL players that had around 2G:1A ratios:
[and I've hinted a dislike for Brett Connolly for sim reasons]
2013-2014: Eric Nystrom: 15g, 6a... Bryan Bickell: 11g, 4a.
2012-2013: Jeff Carter: 26g, 7a... Patrick Berglund 17g, 8a... Michael Grabner: 16g, 5a... Shawn Matthias 14g, 7a... Adam Henrique: 11g, 5a... Gabe Bourque 11g, 5a
2011-2012: David Clarkson: 30g, 16a... Michael Grabner 20g, 12a... Rene Bourque 18g, 6a... Sean Bergenheim 17g, 6a... Eric Nystrom 16g, 5a
2010-2011: Ryan Jones 18g, 7a... Nikolay Zherdev: 16g, 6a
Now a guy like Jeff Carter or Rick Nash is one thing... but most of these other guys... teams haven't gotten their money worth from them.
Matthias is a big body... but he's not good on the dot... he's not gritty... he doesn't do dirty work.
I don't get it... I'm not sure what his role in the NHL is.
And... anybody care to look up his best +/- season?
I'll give you a hint... there's narry a plus season to be found.
The guy is a big nothing.
Big nothings should go on the 4th line... and they should be under $1.5m per.
