Details surface about Tyler Bertuzzi's upcoming extension in Toronto
A recent update from an NHL insider has outlined a timeline for a contract extension between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Tyler Bertuzzi.
Tyler Bertuzzi, a forward for the Maple Leafs who joined the team last season has been performing well. Talks are now in progress for him to stay with the team for many more seasons.
According to a report by Jordan Schmaltz, the Maple Leafs aim to finalize the extension before Tyler Bertuzzi becomes a free agent and explores other options.
Jordan Schmaltz also suggests that keeping the contract duration at 3-4 years, as this would align well with decisions regarding Tyler Bertuzzi's role around Auston Matthews contract expiration.
He also mentions two players whose contracts could serve as models for Tyler Bertuzzis deal this summer. Both players are middle-six wingers known for their versatility in the lineup.
If the Toronto Maple Leafs are committed to retaining Tyler Bertuzzi longterm, this approach is likely the most favorable. Keep the contract length short while slightly increasing the overall salary cap hit.
