Toronto Maple Leafs forward Nick Robertson is going to arbitration as a restricted free agent, and there has been lots of talk about how his next contract will look.
Nick Robertson and the Toronto Maple Leafs are going to arbitration on August 3rd, and there has been a lot of debate about how much the forward will make.
Last season, his contract was worth $875K, which makes a whole lot of sense when you consider where he was in his career.
After scoring 15 goals last season, the forward is in for a raise of sorts, but there is no telling whether or not he will actually get the money he wants. Of course, arbitration all but guarantees a raise.
What is Nick Robertson going to make next season?
In fact, Cap Wages is delivering a new report that suggests what's going on with Robertson, and how much money he stands to make once arbitration begins.
The report reveals that Robertson is likely to make about $1.5 million per season, which is a sizeable raise, all things considered. Having said that, it remains to be seen what kind of term he will get.
One has to assume he will get a term similar to Conor Timmins, who just got a two-year, $4.4 million deal with the Buffalo Sabres.
Regardless of an upcoming deal, the fact remains that the Toronto Maple Leafs have reportedly been shopping Robertson around.
Before a move can be made, the Leafs would have to sign a contract with Robertson. Then, teams would know where the forward stands and how much he would count against their salary cap.
Overall, Robertson is a player that fans would love to have on their team. Whether or not the Leafs can find the right trade remains to be seen.
This next week will be fascinating, and there will be lots of attention on what happens moving forward.
