Former NHLer Sean Avery chimes in and shreds the Maple Leafs over how they’ve managed their salary and the concessions they’ve made for certain players.
Maple Leafs GM Brad Treliving wants to change the DNA of the forward group and bring in players that thrive in pressure situations, such as Game 7s.Sean Avery Believes the Leafs Need to Back Up the Brinks Truck to Sam Bennett‘s Front Door in Free Agency
Former NHLer Sean Avery was on Wednesday’s edition of ‘The JD Bunkis podcast’ where they broke down free agency. Avery, the always controversial career antagonist, called out the Leafs’ past over-spending in free agency for the ‘wrong players’.
Despite calling out the Leafs’ poor cap management – when they’ve had space available – Avery believes Bennett will be worth every penny the Leafs are able to throw at him.
“All the money that organization has wasted on guys… The least they can do is overpay one guy who is actually going to leave an imprint of DNA. Even if he plays six of the eight years, it’ll be the best money ever spent.”
Not one to produce a ridiculous amount in the regular season, Bennett thrives in the playoffs, tallying 48 points in 67 post-season games over the past three season, including a league-leading 13 goals so far in this post-season.
